**Americans are uninformed and paranoid about the Affordable Care Act.

**Yet they embrace Social Security and Medicare.

*Ever heard the old saying "measure twice and cut once?"
*Why put something questionable out there and demand people buy into it when most don't even know what's in it to begin with?
*
*Obamacare from day one has been something that Obama and the Democrats have rammed down our throats. Most who voted for it didn't even read the bill before they signed it. It was clearly the Democrats asserting themselves that it was going to be their way or the highway. Even Nancy Pelosi made the now famous remark "Let's pass it so we can see what's in it!". They didn't have a clue..all they knew is pass this thing before the Republicans see it.
*
*The Republicans want more time for people to examine it and work out the bugs but the Democrats will have none of that...they can't wait to get their ball of mud rolling before they even know what it's going to do. In essence, those who apply for Obamacare become nothing more than guinea pigs. Will they pass or fail...I think it's going to be 50/50. There's going to just as many people denied as there are approved.
*
*Yes people embrace Social Security and Medicare because these are things that they (the working people) PAID INTO themselves. Obamacare takes away from Medicare by stealing billions of dollars away from in home care and senior citizen care in order to help fund it. And then tells people if you don't get it, we'll fine you? So much for freedom of choice..It's the government saying here's what you WILL do even if you don't like it. And when that happens, you of course have the beginnings of a tyranny...and that is something we should never accept.
*
*Let's see how many angry people there are within the next 90 days that will be pissed off when they find out they are still going to be without insurance because they didn't "qualify" for Obamacare and may still end up paying a hefty fine because of it.

Well you've certainly got it all figured out, don't you? Have YOU read it?
And what about the link I supplied above that demonstrates people really are for the provisions of the ACA but don't even realize it's the same thing as "Obamacare"? What is your opinion on that?
As for paying into Social Security and Medicare and getting something in return, what's the difference in paying for medical insurance and getting something in return? I guess you'd rather just have higher taxes to pay for all the uninsured.Followup Messages:
