The ACA was never intended to provide insurance. It was conceived, designed and implemented as a wealth redistribution scheme. Remember, the elected idiots in D.C. already have their own insurance for life.

So f%~# us and our families.

Actually, its not a wealth distribution scheme. Its a necessary step in increasing dependance on the government so the ruling class can expand their power and fill their deep pockets.

Regardless of what Hillary says about leaving DC broke, plenty of people enter Congress or the White House with little money, but everyone leaves with enough wealth that generations of their family will never have to work.

Seems a little foolish to me to financially penalize someone for not buying AHC because they cant afford it. But then again, that is their mentality.

Especially when you consider that the reason we have the ACA is because of people who couldn't afford health insurance. Now we have people that can't afford health insurance AND they have to pay a penalty for not being insured.

It's like the health insurance in my country. In theory it's free; in practice you pay bribe to doctor, bring your own pills, bandages, everything.

Well, I guess it does engender equality in health care, if you think about it. Before, only those with a middle-class income could afford health care and the rich got better health care.

Now, NO DAMN BODY can afford health care and in the long run, no amount of money will get superior health care because they are systematically dismantling our health care system. Only people who'll still get good health care will be the ruling class.

A country that theoretically is ex-communist, but in reality the communism is pretty much ingrained in people mentality. Her name is Romania.

Yep. I saw the storm clouds long time ago. And is no coincidence that UK's tanks are stationed in Germany (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/ ... rmany.html). That will be the line.

I love Romania. The terrain, the food, the culture. Sad the people have been so down trodden, they cannot raise themselves up. (shakes head)

Glad to have you here, Kelu!
