obama's recent speech, 12/28/12?
so im literally confused. Obama just came on the tv and did a 5-10 minute speech but im lost.
he talked about how our paychecks are small already and after the "fiscal cliff" it would go up making our checks smaller and he is trying to fight that but my issue is obamacare. if he was worried about our paycheck he wouldn't force us to spend 1000+ dollars a year on health insurance. is it just me or is does he sound like a hypocrite.
when i said it would go up i meant that our taxes would go up
that doesn't make sense.
obama care fines you if you don't have insurance, its not a choice. i don't have insurance currently (my work/college doesn't provide it or offer it) so where is my choice either i pay a fine or i buy insurance, that doesn't sound like a choice for the poor/uninsured.

You not being forced into Obamacare. It is a choice. You keep the same benefits that you had before the Affordable Health Care Act, its only for those who are without insurance and need insurance. It was never intended to cause people problems, it was to help those who did not have insurance so they could get insurance to lower the out of pocket costs. So , no, not a hypocrite. Well you can continue to blame Obama or thank him for providing affordable health care insurance. You would not be able to afford to health care without insurance. While many think it is a burden that they have to get insurance, the truth is that it will help you in the long run, espcially if you have something very serious happen to your health. Be grateful!
