If Obamacare is so great, why does Obama keep delaying it?

“If Obamacare is so great, why does Obama keep delaying it?”

Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

    Everyone is looking for ways to buy time, the FED, the government. Why? Because there is no other solution to this problem we find ourselves in, in time, allowing that this president will be gone at a point in the future. The chart representation indicates that the general trend is up, but it is going to take much, much longer than the government tells the people. Its one of those little lies that they can compensate for with unemployment and other “tools” at their disposal.

    As for Mr. Obama “doing what he pleases” in regards to the law, the primary accomplishment is that the law exists and what he does to fine tune it to fit in to how the country is being reformed is what has to be done from his point of view and he will continue to do such things as long as Congress will not confront him. And the ability to tweek the law is contained in the text in some form within the frame work of the law itself. It would probably take years to litigate it anyway.

    What is the solution? Stop him and slow him down where you can and wait it out, Obama knows how far he can push and he will keep it at that level for the remainder of his presidency. Wait till you see what he does in the 6 months before he leaves, you thought the Mark Rich pardon was an outrage, just wait. These are the consequences to the choices that the people make.

    In the press conference today, Obama implied the only requirement of Obamacare is that people have insurance. That people on the individual market only had to get insurance if they didn’t already have it. Then he said the only companies that will be affected are ones that don’t offer insurance. Just lie after lie from this guy.

    And saying it is illegal to fire people because of Obamacare is right out of Venezuela or Cuba.

    The lies buy time and the general public for the moment is willing to not tell the king he has no clothes. This goes to questions from the past: Has the lie become more important than the truth?

    The gangster in chief says , “I can do whatever I like” , goodgodallmighty!!!
    Does he base his moral compass by watching how justin beaver acts?
    IMAGINE if Ronnie Reagan has said such a thing publicly, the peasents would have burned the whitehouse down to the ground.
    But if anyone dares to call the vacationer in chief out about his unlawfull/treasonous acts, it’s automatically denied by playing the racism card…..the America sheeple are going to pay for FAR MORE than just Nobamacare…..

    reports are Dems are coming back from talks with even supporters that the programs such a mess they can’t even figure out HOW to comply with it, much less figuring out how many employees they’ll need to shove out of full time jobs.

    Then they come back and the CBO says that ignoring those who’ll just lose their jobs, up to $2.5 million of low pay workers will have to permanently give up working as the only way to get health insurance. I.E. the low cost policies are outlawed, the high cost ones are only affordable with gov subsidies that only kick in if your unemployed.

    Trying to spin that as a good thing since it shows the subsidies will allow folks to stay home and spend more time with hobbies and families.

    Why should we not be surprised that liberals rae working to keep the pour down and on welfare.
