The "it" they'll get done by 2012 is the ACA itself. As always, the Pub propaganda machine takes things out of context and runs with it. For hater dupes only.Yes, the BUDGET- about 3 weeks ago. And have tried a million times over the last 5 years. ACA IS A COMPROMISE- THE PUB PLAN.Almost time for the GOP adults to again ignore the brainwashed tinfoil twit "no compromise, un-American TP GOP" (TIME)...
can you tell us the last time the DNC compromised on something the GOP wanted?
Far left propaganda from a far left drone..Nobody said immediately- wait a few years ferchrissake.. And the reports you believe are Pubcrappe. ACTUAL rates are up less than 5%- record low increases, even including red states.Fer chrissake dupe, you're blaming Obama for Booosh's 2nd Great Pub Depression, AND Pubs blocking a full recovery for four years. Then ACA is supposed to perform miracles IMMEDIATELY (it just kept price hike to 3%) even WITH Pubs screwing it up in red states...OK, give us more destructive Pub fear mongering BULLSHYTTE propaganda.Good question
Are they better off on wages? No
Are they better off on retirement savings? Yes
Are they better off on healthcare? yes
Overall.....about even
So, why are Republicans going to block these initiatives to finally do something for working Americans?
Because they have to protect the one percent
Now THAT is an amusing answer!
A whole lot of the Middle Class have had their retirement savings savaged by being out of work for record amounts of time and the value of real estate they own is still lagging far behind what it used to be. Hard to see how anyone's retirement savings is better off under Barry's six years.
As for healthcare? The Middle Class was told that they would be saving money because of the ACA. That was a lie. They will be expected to pay more for the ACA because someone has to pick up the tab for all of the subsidies for the poor.
Propaganda? You progressives told Middle Class Americans that the ACA would save an average family about $2,500 a year in healthcare costs and that was a total LIE! The healthcare costs for the average Middle Class American have gone up sharply! Many of the 8,000,000 Americans who lost their old health care plans because they didn't meet ObamaCare guidelines are now faced with either paying extremely high rates for worse coverage than they had before...or paying a penalty for not having any coverage at all because they can't afford it!
“In an Obama administration, we’ll lower premiums by up to $2,500 for a typical family per year….. We’ll do it by the end of my first term as President of the United States.” Barack Obama, June 5th, 2008
You want the middle class to be revitalized, reduce taxes and regulations so companies can manufacture more in this country. As manufacturing goes so goes the middle class.
Reduce taxes for whom? Which regulations?
The truth that Franco will never admit to...is that the ACA was never about lowering healthcare costs for the American Middle Class...it was always about providing healthcare for the poor and having the Middle Class pay for most of it.
The truth you will never admit to it that the insurance companies (who Republicans support mightily and vice versa) wrote the ACA for their benefit and do you ever hear of the insurance companies complaining about all this new business? Fuck no. And the monies pour into those political war chests and you Republicans have your hands out for that money and your politicians give you lip service all the way to the fund raiser being held by the insurance industry for those same politicians who are giving you lip service.
You being played for a fool dude. Republican have no intention of doing away with the ACA. They make way to much money from both sides. The insurance company gives them money and you fools give them money.
Fucking nuts is what this situation is.
With all due respect, Zeke...the ACA contains a clause where the insurance companies will be compensated by the Federal Government if their costs are higher than anticipated due to the ACA. That wasn't something that was given to them by the GOP...that was something that was granted to them by the Obama Administration, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

With all due respect (this is interesting) the provision you mentioned was inserted by the insurance companies.
Did you know that the two main Congressional staffers charged with writing this bullshit legislation BOTH had careers in the insurance industry? Why what a strange coincidence that a provision that protects the insurance companies from loss would be inserted by staffers from the insurance industry.
And you are correct. The Republicans shirked their responsibility to participate in the legislative process. Maybe had they been constructively engaged in the bill writing process, we might have a better piece of legislation.
Repubs are guilty by omission in this mess. Dems are guilty in allowing the insurance companies to write the legislation.
All Americans except the ultra wealthy and Insurance company executives (they are one and the same) got fucked by this legislation.
Single payer for all is the answer.
How can someone with a 401k that saw the stock market rise from 6600 to over 17000 not have made money under Obama?
Because a 401K does not increase in value simply because the Dow is up. That you're even asking this shows you probably don't even know what a 401K is, or how it works.
Just shows AGAIN that the richest make way too much of the country's money.
Just shows AGAIN that the richest make way too much of the country's money.
1) only a libcommie would think it was the country's money rather than the money of those who earned it in free, voluntary transactions
2) if you don't want them to have so much money you are free not to buy their products.
3) instead a violent Nazi liberal will seek to take their money away at the point of a gun.
They also get 95% of the growth in wealth, so obviously they aren't taxed enough, and the nonrich too much. see sig pp1. And it's been going on for years, brainwashed chump of the greedy idiot rich GOP.Just shows AGAIN that the richest make way too much of the country's money.

the top 1% pay 40% of taxes now. In a libcommie world they would pay 100% and the bottom 99% would have no skin in the game, pay no taxes, and have every incentive to always raise taxes on other people. Welcome to the USSR/USA.
Is it a surprise that liberals spied for Hitler and Stalin

The truth that Franco will never admit to...is that the ACA was never about lowering healthcare costs for the American Middle Class...it was always about providing healthcare for the poor and having the Middle Class pay for most of it.
The reason why people like Peter Gruber felt it was necessary to lie about the ACA was that he understood what the reaction would be when the Middle Class found out that their costs would be going up substantially. It's why key components of the ACA kept getting put off until the next election...Democrats were scared to death that the voters would figure out how badly they'd been lied to.
That was the big lie that Obama and his people used to "sell" the Affordable Care Act to the American people.

You sound like a scab for the insurance companies.

My cost hasn't risen anymore than it's risen previously.

no, its easier to steal from those who do the work to create wealth.
