Reply #87: I, quite frankly, am exhausted from hearing this

rationalization. These ass clowns, who enjoy THEIR own version of insurance options, and face no threat of 'pre-existing conditions', have had the last 9 months to get this right. All they had to do was 'tweak' medicare here and there and offer it to all un- and under-insured. That is all they had to do. No gun toting tea baggers showing up throughout the month of August, no multiple millions of insurance lobby dollars (your premiums at work) flooding DC. No 1900+ pages of double speak bullshit that accomplishes nothing.

The last 9 months have instead been spent figuring out how to offer the un- and under-insured a platter of shit all the while insisting it was good for you and really isn't what it appears to be. But don't worry because in FOUR fucking years it won't look like that at all. And only an additional 176,000 people will have died while we were all waiting.
