Link to article doesn´t work?

Thank you. Link corrected. LCom Staff.

They are forgetting that the mandate to purchase was found un-Constitutional and that the tax for not having insurance is un-enforceable. Can you say collapse?

The US House of Representatives needs to starve (prevent funding) of this unlawful and unsustainable obamacare package!

What´s next, force insurance companies to sell auto coverage to people after a car accident and homeowners plans after the flood?

It´s all about insurance and more insurance. Cover everyone out the whazoo - why not??

But if there are not enough doctors, or hospitals, or medical equipment, or new medication discoveries, what difference does all the insurance in the world make? By all means, let´s spend every available dollar to cover everyone with our crapped-out medical system and provide lavish salaries to lib cronies to mismanage it.

Investing in more medical schools and facilities, and giving more opportunities for capable people to enter the medical profession, and thus making it a free-market affordable and efficient system is capitalistic. That doesn´t fit the control-freak agenda of liberals.

Since the SCOTUS decision said (correctly) they couldn´t do this under the commerce clause then business should tell them to take a hike as there´s nowhere else in the constitution that even remotely (via emanations from penumbras) says the feddies get to dictate to the private sector. These insurance companies better man up and challenge this via a class action suit.

At some point people started to view insurance as coverage for your medical costs.

This scheme only put "insurance" companies into the rhelm of an escrow company collecting the fees, and paying the bills since everyone is covered without any pre-existing conditions or considerations.

There will be no reason for doctors or hospitals to control costs.
There will be huge deficit in the accounts to pay these bills as everyone pads their invoices.

Everyone is assuming they´ll now be provided Mayo clinic level care.

...And as for the AARP, I´m still trying to decide whether they are Con Men of the Century, or Dupes of the Century. From what I can determine, they thought Obamacare would force all the elderly to join AARP and buy their worthless "supplementary" insurance to cover everything (not really) AARP supported being stripped from Medicare. AARP can go take a hike.

Every state possible should fight this thing. Let the Bright Blue States fund their exchanges and sink with them, and Feds do the Red State exchanges and then put the Fed exchanges on the table for budget cutting.
Fight and Starve this monstrous affront to America shoved down our throats by this arrogant and most unAmerican of presidents.

AARP is in the insurance biz, not the senior biz. Their policies reflect that fact.

The democrat party deconstruction of America begins....

They´ve been at it every day for the last 50 years or so while the rest of the country didn´t notice or didn´t care.

Under the law, Americans who are not covered through work will be able to comparison shop for health insurance in online markets, also known as exchanges, designed to mimic the shopping experience of popular travel sites.

Isn´t it nice that, three years after "passage", they still talk only in future tense about this legislative pig. Nobody can yet say what it has done for anybody. It´s a disgrace.

Government bureaucrats in charge of a commercial level exchange.

What could go wrong?

The administration is wrongly drawing up rules for taking the tax credit for health insurance. The law says that if you buy from a state exchange, you get the credit. It does not say that if you buy from a federal exchange you get a credit. The admin has ignored the law and drawn up regulations to let credits apply to either. That will need to be litigated, probably through tax courts. The purpose of the law was to force the states to set up the exchanges by giving the credits. When the states rebelled against the added expenses and intrusion, Obama and Sebelius just ignored the law and started dictating.

Look at that neck. I am glad to see that Sebelius is aging badly. Sick of her.

And finally, at the end of the article:

The administration adjusted several rules to accommodate industry concerns, including allowing insurance companies to institute higher deductibles in plans they sell to small businesses and setting enrollment periods to prevent consumers from signing up for insurance only when they get sick.

The proposed new rules drew cautious praise from several leading industry representatives. Karen Ignagni, head of America´s Health Insurance Plans, reiterated concerns that requirements still may force consumers "to purchase coverage that is more costly than they have today."

Who is paying to administer all these exchanges? I can already visualize bureaucratic agencies stuffed full of people getting 5 weeks vacation, generous salaries, and probably public union representation to boot.

The CBO estimated that the death bill will cost $1.7 trillion in 10 years. They underestimate everything, so I suspect that $1.7T will become $9.5 trillion.
