: This morning, the Supreme Court ruled that President Obama's AFFORDABLE HEALTH ACT is constitutional. Romeny and the republicans are CRYING in the back. For a second there, we were pretty nervous!!!
With the act, close to $300M Americans will have access to affordable health care. It is the mst INNOVATIVE piece of legislation passed in this country in 75 years.
Congrats to the President . . . and to the American People.
OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA!

Now.. you can NEVER loose you health insurance just because you lost your job, your children won't get denied, and it benefits the elder tremendously. ReTHUGlicans knows this is a great law which is why they tried everything in their powers to *** it because they don't want to see anything improve under President Obama.
The only people I know that don't approve of this is chez whitey's aka the man aka crakkka'z aka honky tonk man aka the devil himself aka hill billies aka the devil's rejects aka the hills have eyes aka wiggaz aka Mitt Romney aka Goerge Bush (both of them) aka wet dogs. I can go on but why?
All up in ya!
#Team Black
I could see how it would be kind of upsetting for some people that it will now be a requirement that you buy into some type of insurance if you are working. But if you think about it, we are all required to have insurance on our vehicles so why not for our bodies which are irreplaceable? Something to think about...
Hmmmm...i'm on the fence with this.....Yeah, i think EVERYONE should have health insurance, but what about the ones that CANT afford it ???? I don't think people should be FORCED to spend their money on something they may not be able to afford....... Being real here, & i know this is gonna sound bias, i know it...........but on the other hand, I just want Obama to ONE UP on the Republicans.............
I am SO PROUD of my President and cannot wait to vote for him again this November! We are one of the only industrialized nations without universal healthcare. This is a huge win for our President and nation! I don't mind those who oppose Obamacare, as long as they're not doing it because President Obama is a Democrat and Black. Since we know that's most likely the case, all I can say is "Go Prez! It's yo' bday!" LOL!
First of all everything Barack said he was going to do in his 4 years as president, He did it!!! If u ignorant people followed his campaign in 2008 you all would know about this healthcare plan. You all voted for Barack because he is black. Dumb aszes! These rednecks didnt like this plan because this means us black folk can actually live longer and be healthy. Real folk know what these republicans are about Rich get Richer and poor die poor fast. Open your eyes people. Barack is trying to build the middle class back up to middle class. He is not that much different from the rest but he is showing us something. And that is get yall mind right and take advantage of his presidency while he is there. Because once he is gone. You will be begging God to die. Real folk know exactly what I am talking about. Rich get Richer and live healthy. Poor get poor and die fast!!!! #wakeup. BTW Barack helped a lot of people in the hood. You all just too blind to see. Too uneducated to take advantage. MTO kill ya self please!
The people who don't think this is a good idea have no basis behind their reasoning. It's socialism? Communism? Ok how? Prove your point. Everybody wins with Obamacare. I have yet to hear a good reason why requiring employers to provide health insurance and requiring individuals to have health insurance is a bad idea.
Since this article has NO @$$ ***, baby mama, reality show dum dums, etc., and MTO is running it, we know it won't get top billing. That said, Eric Holder, watch your back, these ReTHUGlicans are a trip and they are mad as rabid dogs! They are coming for you around "Fast & Furious"! Protect him Obama.
I'm so tired of u mugs claiming that Bush is indistinguishable from Obama, so this is what I propose.
Congress should pass a law that anyone who publicly makes that opinion known should be required to enlist in the marines. Why? Because you obviously have no appreciation for what war is. For whatever reason you believe Obama has done something on par with invading a country for bogus reasons and creating conditions for a civil war in which hundreds of thousands of Iraqis die and thousands of Americans, not to mention contributing to the current economic situation.
U mugs should be dropped on the front lines of whatever war or militarily action is currently in progress right after basic training.
I haven't voted since I voted for Bush, but it looks like I will this year. I hope Romney wins, but with Obama getting so desperate for a second term that he promotes *** marriage (which we all know this disgusting world loves), he might actually get a second term. This world is going to hell and Obama is carrying the hand-basket!
ha ha ha ha you zombies will never learn free health no more like Tuskegee Experiment. They were given free health care to can you imagine government free healthcare mixed with the Pharmaceutical companies? they'll have your black a$$ hooked on all type of drugs using you as lab rats like they did to those poor black men in Tuskegee. obama will usher in an age of dumb down black people like we never seen before. OBAMA CAN DO NO WRONG FOR HE DOES NOT KNOW IT IS, OH LAWD OBAMA GIVE US FREE SAVE US FROM DA WHITE MAN AND PAY MY RENT
Just because a few good things are in it, doesn't make it great. Then again, because he's half black, some people swear he can do no wrong. Those are the ones who are the least informed. The ones who let rappers and other celebrities make a joke out of them by swaying their vote. Celebrities live well regardless of who's in office. They only want him because a. He's liberal b. He's for *** rights and c. He's half black. What does any of that have to do with most of Americans being broke?
@homie85: you are force obligated to have Obama's health insurance . An' it's not cheap
Violating the Constitution
Money coming out your paycheck whether you want it or not .
Medicare , BluCross, Aetna ...etc will cease to exist
Which Adds to the debt we already have... so your children have no future income
Kiss your Retirement goodbye
.....seriously do your research.
homie85, requiring employers to provide health care for their employees means there will be less money available to create jobs, expand business, and grow a company. Mandating individuals buy health insurance is government forcing its hand on you. Liberty and the right to choose your own path through life is affected. It's precedent and will end up costing anyone who pays taxes (all of us) a lot more money and will cost you your freedom.
Open mouth, insert government teat. Don't work too hard for anything, someone will take care of you and bandage your boo-boo when you fall for "free". Give you food for "free". Give you money for the things you want to buy for "free". A roof over your head that you don't have to make payments on, that's "free" too. School for your kids, sure, that's "free" too. You lost your job and don't want another, sure, take a two year paid vacation on us... for "free".
You are disgraceful and anything but honorable. You are soft and weak and NEED to be taken care of because you feel you are entitled to it. That's not freedom, that's pathetic and you embarrass me.
Oh yes, the Republicans care sooo much about the poor, minorities, women, and providing healthcare and decent jobs for those who make less than $250,000 a year...YEAH RIGHT! Republicans do not care about the average citizens of this country. If you're rich and Republican, I ain't mad atcha..do ya thing! However, for the rest of us who are trying to do their best to maintain a decent quality of living, we know the Republicans do not give a *** about us! It has nothing to do with Obama being black, supporting *** rights, and celebrities supporting him, and to ASSUME that is case says more about YOUR perspective of the people who support the President than it does about the actual people. I personally, don't give a *** what anyone thinks of me...dumb, poor, uninformed, looking for a handout....it's not gonna stop me from voting for President Obama come November. OBAMA 2012!!!
rp89 Do you know how much it costs tax payers to foot the bill for people who do not have health insurance? People running to the hospital for any and everything without insurance causes premiums to sky rocket for those who are resposible and and actually have coverage. You are NOT required to have "Obama's Health Insurance" (whatever that is. I'm sure you made it up).
EVERYONE should have money taken out of their check for health insurance. I don't care who you are. You NEED health insurance. Do you ride around with no car insurance??? No, becuase it's illegal. This is no different.
Insurance companies aren't going anywhere and they will lower premiums in order to stay competitive.
As for retirement, Social Security would be gone by the time I retired anyway, so healthcare reform won't make a difference. That's why I invest in my 401k and save on the side ;-)
So what was your reasoning again?
@thejrjr
That logic can be applied to just about anything.
A vehicle that generates enough force to travel faster than the fastest animal could also generate enough force to kill u. See?
So do you diminish the vehicles ability to generate force arbitrarily? No. U weigh the advantage of speed and power vs the danger and you have rules and regulations in place to make it as powerfully efficient and as safe as possible.
I really hate when people assume that only rich, old, white men are republicans and that we do not care about poor people. Majority of my neighborhood is republican. All throughout the year we give to the less unfortunate. Every Christmas we all adopt a family. For those of you who never give to charity but swear republicans are all evil greedy people, that means we all pick a family to give gifts to. Government on both ends rob, but it's poor democrats most known for taken from people s homes.
@JustTooMuch, Really? Kill ourselves for discussing politics? Maybe we should go to the stripper post and go back and forth over whether her booty is real or fake. At least people are debating stuff worth debating over. I don't think talking about politics makes anyone stupid, whether it changes things or not. Maybe someone reading these comments has learned something today or it's encourange someone to do some research on the subject.
TrollSmasher
I do not understand much of what you just said but if you are referring to the level of healthcare politicians are receiving... I am utterly opposed to the level of healthcare politicians receive. It is outrageous. They get unbelievable healthcare for well beyond their terms of service. I don't think that's fair at all. And, I absolutely disagree with the mentality of "Well they have it, so should we." I think if you want/need something, you have to go earn it. NOT have it given to you or have the mindset that you are entitled to it.
The purpose of my comment you copied was to vent about the liberal use of the word free. Nothing is free. As a brilliant man once said. "Governments have nothing. They can't create anything, they never have. All they can do is steal from one group and give it to another at the destruction of the principles of freedom, and we ought to challenge that concept." My reference was to the fact that we will all pay dearly (financially) for the repercussions of the decisions made to day. Not referencing a government take over about this... now if it was about abolishing the second amendment, then I would be concerned. The decisions of today make me believe that the government has too much power and it is stealing away from the liberties of its people.
@Homie85
I think welfare, at its core, is a wonderful thing. I also think that many, many people have found ways to take advantage of the program simply because the would rather draw a check from welfare than work. That makes me a little sick.
Not sure what these exceptions are that you are speaking of for small businesses. I work for a small business and I hear about it all the time how ridiculous health care costs are currently ($25,000-35,000 per employee: employer cost). We research constantly programs, grants, and shop around policies. I think you may want to ask a small business owner there thoughts on healthcare. Ask those that facilitate jobs what they think of the new policy.
At what COST can THEY afford to provide SOMETHING to their employees? It means less money to grow, less money to invest in the company, less money to hire more people. The same effect is caused by raising minimum wage (raise minimum wage ---> stalls job creation).
My whole point was that it seems that many people feel entitled to the things that others work hard for. It's not rich vs. poor. I work my *** off to provide for my family. Now I am going to be mandated by threat of heavy taxes and fines to buy a health insurance. I don't want to do that. But, I have no choice if I plan on being alive.
@thejrjr @duhreelkeypurr: Well Said & Understood.
@zoup: I know Obamacare has some benefits ; that will eventually hurt this country in the long run .
@Kill the Budda: A lot of people only care for things that directly affects them.
I , on the other hand, tend to put my feet in someone else's shoe .. because it could of been me.
@sixwishes: open- minded & cultured individuals know better ; than to judge a book by its cover.
Rich (employees ) & Wealthy ( Bosses) people differ in ethics & morals.
I've witnessed many do a lot for the community & education without rewards.
An' there's plenty in the streets fighting injustice.
@kill the budda
If I don't want to pay car insurance, I don't have to own a car. What choice do I have if I don't want to buy health insurance?
The rest of your post, I am not sure what you are getting at or how it relates to being mandated to buy health insurance. I do, however, appreciate the animal reference. I will think greatly of it on my way home from work. (I am currently going fast than any animal on the planet, BOOYA!)
The healthcare system IS in dire need of reform but this change crosses way too many lines. Government should not have the right to mandate that I buy something. I provide for my family as best I can and I work hard to do so. Now I am being forced to give my money to a company that I do not want to. I feel robbed of my choice in the matter.
"To small business owners who have five to twenty employees, my condolences. To those employed by a small business owners, my prayers. Increase healthcare cost will result in layoffs and cripple an already crippling economy. Cool! We now have the same healthcare system as Greece and Spain. Public healthcare is working spendidly in those countries(sarcasm)."
@duhreelkeypurr
Well put. As an employee of a small business with 5-25 employees, at least if I were in Spain or Greece I would have a nice view.
@jrjr, the exception is under small businesses with under 50 employees are exempt. True, the expense for companies is substantial, but I think something like health insurance is a very important expense. Why wouldn't someone want themselves or their family to be covered? One illness can bankrupt a family. I see your point though.
@JustTooMuch...Imma pray for you lol.
"The issue is not whether Congress can compel commerce by forcing you to buy insurance, or simply compel you to pay a tax if you donât. The issue is that this compulsion implies the use of government force against those who refuse. The fundamental hallmark of a free society should be the rejection of force. In a free society, therefore, individuals could opt out of âObamacareâ without paying a government tribute."
Not my words but I agree wholeheartedly.
@TrollSmasher you clearly need to read history, you truly think this government will help blacks? the Pharmaceutical companies already have your kids on bullsh*t drugs for ADHD and other lies many black boys are placed in LD classes for this very reason. you think they wouldn't use some people (more likely blacks) as test subjects for new pills? just look at history read about the Tuskegee Experiment and remember this government does not care about blacks at all. YOU ARE NOTHING TO THEM
Yes, people do not have to own a car because there are plenty of alternatives (walking, riding a bike,riding the bus) BUT what is the alternative for people who do not have healthcare????? Stiffing the bill when they go to the emergency room or going bankrupt trying to pay out of pocket???? When the bill doesn't get paid it costs those of us who do have health insurance by making our premiums and the price of services doctors/hospitals go up, to make up for the costs of people who choose to not to have healthcare. If you already have healthcare, you will not be affected as a matter of fact the cost of your healthcare will stabilize and not continue to go up every year. IF you don't have healthcare, well just like people who cannot afford full coverage car insurance and shop around for cut rate insurance, the same will apply, and the government will provide help for those who cannot afford to pay the cost on their own. You WILL have a choice in the matter.
ARE YOU GUYS SERIOUS??? YOU GUYS DO UNDERSTAND NOW OUR TAXES ARE GOING TO GO UP CRAZY THANKS TO OBAMA TO PAY FOR ALL OF THIS HEALTH CARE?? WHY DONT YOU LAZY ***"S CALL TODAY AND GET INSURANCE BEFORE THE PRICE GOES UP. OBAMA WILL MAKE YOU PAY A FINE IF YOU DONT HAVE INSURANCE BY 2014!!!!! GOOD JOB GUYS!!
FREE!!!!!!............FREE!!!!!!.........FREE!!!!!!!...........................THIS IS ALL U DUMB BLK PPL KNOW IS GETTING SOMETHING FOR FREE..........U PPL WONDER WHY UR DUMB A** CAN'T GET AHEAD?..............NOTHING IS FOR FREE STUPIDS....................THERE IS A WHOLE LIST OF THINGS IN THE BILL THAT MOST OF U DON'T KNOW, ONE BEING THE F-R-I-D CHIP IMPLANT ECT........................OH! THAT'S RIGHT, I FORGOT WHO I'M TALKING TO..................................ONLY THING U BLK PPL ARE GOOD FOR IS GETTING PLAYED....................THESE EDOMITES DON'T GIVE A D*MAN ABOUT UR HEALTH & WEALTH FARE NOR DOES THIS HAMMITE.....................ONLY THING U 2/3RDS ARE GOOD FOR IS A CONCENTRATION CAMP...........SUCKERS A** NIZZZZERRRS.
Omg, after this comment I'm done. I'm all for hearing other people's perspectives, but some of these comments are just...*sigh*
1. This is not welfare. This policy does not mean healthcare is free for all. This is not the same as universal healthcare. 2. No one is being forced to buy anything. If you choose not to get coverage, you will be fined. They are calling it a TAX. 3. According to the Constitution, the government can apply taxes. This is not the same as having your tax rates increased. So no, this is not a tax increase on the middle class.
Here's a great breakdown of what Obama has accomplished. "The chief justice ruled that ObamaCare is unconstitutional under the commerce clause, but the court justified the law under the tax clause. This means ObamaCare is justified as a tax. So Uncle Sam will get more of our money.
We will all be forced to purchase health insurance just as we are required to buy car insurance. Those who choose not to purchase health insurance under the law will be taxed $695 or 2.5% of your income, whichever is greater."
THAT DONT SOUND LIKE NO FREE HEALTHCARE TO ME...DUMMIES!
Who said healthcare was going to be free?! All these Mitt Romney/Republican/Anti-government supporters come on MTO "slumming" with the urban demographic which they believe they are smarter and better than! It must pain you intellectuals to come on MTO to spread your message to all these "lazy dumb *** ***!ggers." Spreading your lies, propaganda, hatred, and contempt to try and get the urban demographic to vote against their own interests! So you are against the Healthcare bill, will be voting for Romney, or believe all government is evil, no need to belittle and name call to try to get your point across!!!
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE NOW GOING TO BE FORCED TO BUY HEALTHCARE INSURANCE OR BE TAXED IF THEY DO NOT. THE HEALTHCARE ACT ITSELF IS MORE NEGATIVE THAN POSITIVE.CUT IN MEDICARE & MORE THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW IF YOU RELIED ON THE MEDIA TO FULLY EXPLAIN IT. THE BAD OUT WEIGH THE GOOD IN THIS CASE. HOW MUCH POWER DID THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY JUST GAIN !!! MOM & POP OPERATION CAN'T AFFORD TO OFFER EMPLOYEES AFFORDABLE INSURANCE ,.. .
And for those of you who have health insurance, here's what you have to look forward to:
"Q: What will happen to my insurance premiums?
A: Most consumers can expect to keep seeing increases in premiums and co-payments because the underlying cost of health care is expected to rise. The law contains a few mechanisms to curb premiums, but it also requires that many insurance providers make their benefits more generous, which will raise their cost."
WOW! HIGHER PREMIUMS AND CO-PAYS. THAT'S JUST WHAT THE WORKING CLASS NEEDS. THE MEDICAID PROGRAM IS EXPANDED AND WILL BE PAID FOR BY THE WORKING CLASS. THANKS OBAMA. GOOD WORK!!
IT IS IMPERATIVE TO VOTE FOR MITT ROMNEY. HE WILL KNOCK THIS STUPID LAW DOWN!
@proverbial hater your kinda wrong at the time of Lincoln only 6% of the south owned slaves. Lincoln charged southern farmers a tax called Tarrifs, and the southern farmers went bankrupt. They refused to pay the tax and succeded ( spell check) from the U.S. and that boys and girls led to the civil war, so slavery was a very small factor. *** can't see on on history history.
You have to read the blue print of this bill...... this man in my opinion is carrying the spirit of the Antichrist and he has definitely set the stage for it. Obama's agenda is leaning this country toward a dictatorship type of law and it is soon to come because he will get 4 more years. Indeed, he has decieve many but if you are not in the word of GOD you will be dooped. There are a lot of discrepncies in this bill that lean toward the charteristics of the end times as well as the fruit that he bears. The package looks good but the inside don't so please folks read the blueprint of this bill. He is going to get four more years for sure because the word of GOD has to be fulfilled and America is in trouble and the sins of this land has reached the heavens and castrophic events will take place soon for this will be GOD's wrath on America. Obama has more up his sleeves and his true colors will be reveal the next four years so please people let's pray for this country because it is in trouble for the end times are here.
Big win for President Obama and his adminstration, Now we can put all this "Unconstitutional' *** to bed. In addition this is NOT FREE HEALTHCARE or a government taking over our healthcare system, it's the exact opposite. It's a mandate to buy health insurance in PRIVATE healthcare companies. Does this bill end all healthcare problems? Hell No Single Payer does, but it does have some great provision and on the right track for Americans.
The Proverbial Hater flag as inappropriate/spam
Niqqas acting like they done made it off this legislation. Riddle me this........ Is Healthcare free like in Canada or UK? Call me when a cancer patient making $10,000 - $25,000 is able to walk into a hospital and get the exact same medical care as someone making $200,000 a year...... Then we can talk.
************************************************
Right but I think most are hopeful that it will eventually lead to Universal coverage when he's elected in 2012...hoping and praying.
Hope all is well in your world PH.
Hey @Great1, Hater, bklynkey718- so this is where you guys are hanging out going hard, lol.
Topic - Great win indeed, guess the Obamas showed them with their expertise on Constitutional Law, something I believe was also on trial here and it won out. While I do not believe in every part of the healthcare law and like many would have liked the single payer system but thatâs neither here or there. However, you have to LOL at the Republicans behavior reminds me of The Brave New World characters who do everything they can to avoid facing the truth about their own situation in all this especially Romney and his self-delusion. I heard over at Fox News, Beck, Hannity and the rest of the wingnuts heads were spinning like a darn exorcist while Limbarf almost overdose on his Viagra, lol.
uh....lets talk serious:
Even though it's been a few hours now, I'm guessing you're still pinching yourself to make sure you're not dreaming. But yes, it happened. At 10:07 this morning, the conservative Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, John Roberts, not only joined with the liberal justices to completely uphold almost every single part of the Obama health care law, he wrote the majority opinion himself! In fact, he went even further. When he realized that the government had poorly made its constitutional case to the court, he went searching for a clause in their argument and the constitution that would give him the justification he needed to back the administration and to insure that his decision would hold up legally. In other words, even though he is on the opposite side of the political fence, he wrote the Dems' paper for them. Stunning.
The other four justices? They didn't just vote to overturn the individual mandate part of the law, they all voted to kill the entire Act.
The media is already spending much time talking about the mandate being the "centerpiece of the law," but the real news is that if you ever have a pre-existing condition, you cannot now be denied insurance. If you are a young adult without health insurance, you can now stay on your parents' plan until age 26. The insurance company can no longer say there is a lifetime cap to your coverage. The insurance companies are now required to spend 85 cents out of every dollar they take in on actual reimbursement for your health care â not on profit or "administrative costs" (some companies have been taking over a 30% cut; Medicare's total percentage of their budget for administrative costs: 2%).
I know that our side is not used to victories and so we're not quite sure how to respond when we get one out of the blue. For some of us, the first inclination is to point out just how weak the Obama law actually is, that it doesn't provide true universal health care (26 million will STILL be uninsured), and that it leaves control of the system in the hands of the vultures, otherwise known as the health insurance companies. The individual mandate was a huge gift to the private insurance companies, guaranteeing them billions more from millions of new customers. And many of the key provisions of this law don't even take effect until 2014 â and if the Republicans win in November, you can kiss all of that goodbye.
So, yes, the bill is highly flawed and somewhat wrong-headed â but what it IS is a huge step in the right direction. And today's court decision cements that. The right wing knows this and they are probably unraveling in some not-so-pretty ways right now. And that's why today is a great day. The Right has been smacked down by one of their own! They know what we all know â that the path of history has been, and will continue to move toward the basic human right that all people are entitled to see a doctor and NOT have to worry about losing their home because they can't afford to pay the medical bills. Those days are over, or will be soon, and that is where civilization is headed. It's not headed back to the days of Oliver Twist. Today's victory is momentum, it's forward motion, and we WILL have true universal health care in this country in the not too distant future.
So take some time *** to celebrate; this is a victory for the people. Actually, more than a victory, it is a mandate that all of us must now make sure that a second-term Obama continues to move the ball down the field, toward a system like they have in every other First World country on the planet. He simply has to improve Medicare and then expand it to every citizen in the country. The countries that do this, their people live an average of two to four years longer than we do. Is there a reason anyone doesn't want an extra four years of their lives? Or that our babies would have a better chance of surviving their first year like they do in the 48 countries that have a better infant mortality rate than we do? Exactly who is opposed to this? You'd have to be a bitâ¦crazy.
And that, I've come to believe, is the true divide in this country. It's not blue state vs red state, liberal vs conservative, Democrat vs Republican. The split we have in America can be boiled down in its simplest form to this: On one side are the people who believe Adam and Eve rode on dinosaurs 6,000 years ago â and then there's everyone else. On that first side are the people who've been fed a diet of fear and lies and hate. And who is feeding them? The 1%. The richest people in the country, the ones who aren't done with us yet because they still don't have enough wealth, have done their best to dumb down the population through destroying our educational system and using media to provide them with a vastly distorted sense of reality. The rich's only obstacle is that they only hold 1% of the votes in the country. So they have to try to get a slim majority of Americans to vote their way. And fear, plus keeping them stupid, usually works.
So that's the battle ahead of us: Organizing and mobilizing the majority of Americans to push for true universal health care, Medicare for All. At one time, back in Illinois, that was the position held by Barack Obama. He will not make this happen on his own. He will only be able to do it when the mass of American people rise up and demand it. Demand it. Why not start ***?
I will say this...Y'all smart stupid *** ain't fooling nobody....talking to ya self *** ***.....c'mon son it's not that deep...but yeah...I know staff gotta keep the hits up..this *** is corny....mto...step ya game all the way up..... we gonna comment....y'all don't have to put *** in the game..., selling the people out for hits.....
@ yellowberry: THANK YOU for schooling these fools! The ignorant trolls on here slamming this healthcare plan DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE PLAN IS ALL ABOUT! They just want President Obama to lose. Their stupid a$$es don't even know that MOST of their sorry behinds will be helped by this bill and don't even know it!
AND WHO CARES WHAT YOU TROLLS SAY ANYWAY SINCE THE BILL IS HERE TO STAY!
THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE TOP STORY instead of that Chris Brown trash!. THANKS M. T. O. FOR EVEN POSTING THIS!! PRESIDENT OBAMA IN NOVEMBER!!
None of you seem to know ***! Obama is slowly but surely stealing money and rights from anyone making more than $25k a year, *** his soldiers, and raping the constitution. This is affordable health care for the ones of you who are to stupid to spell health care. You been sitting around on welfare thinkin everything should be handed to you and it's at the expense of the ones of us who aren't lazy as *** or high school drop outs. Take some responsibility. You voted for Obama because he's black and nothing else. You have no clue about *** else unless someone tells you. I hope at some point they start drug testing welfare recipients and forcing them to actively look or have a job. then I will gladly pay the obamacare tax because my money will go to deserving people. Not you stupid fake *** dope boys who make 20k a year then go put Rims on a 5k car and smoke and drink the rest up. I used to be just like you till I figured out there was more to life. Kill your *** self you inevitable deadbeat, drunk, cracked out, lazy ***, wannabe rappers
Is so sad that people are so gung ho for this health care act just because Obama was fighting for it, not knowing what this health care act is really gonna be doing...first of all it won't be punishing the rich or poor & SOMETIMES lazy, it's only hurting the working class the ones that make to much to get any type government assistance and don't make enough to get any tax breaks....it's only going to increase our taxes and premiums, so feel how you want but as a black woman who not only works full-time but also attends school full-time...I can honestly say that this health care act is *** & it's not fair to the people who work for a living...please enlighten me as to how it's right that I should have to pay higher premiums just because I work...I swear if you wanna get over just drop out school & pop out a *** baby 'cause then you could get wic, housing, food stamps, cash assistance, family central, & you can go back to school for free....how the *** do you get punished for not *** off & having a baby....the truely *** up thing about this act is that the people that honestly need the help won't be the ones that get it, it'll be the lazy *** people that only want to abuse it....
