Who Should Pay for Obamacare?

[emilynghiem]

Given the unresolved conflicts over ACA, clearly people have different BELIEFS about health care, federal government, and who should pay for their own policies they support.

Some of these views "will not change" because they are religiously held; and of the beliefs that do change, I believe this is naturally done by free will, not by force of government.

Who do YOU believe should pay for the costs and programs under Obamacare?

Well--if Obamacare affects everyone--then everyone should be required to pay for it. Much like Social Security--there is no free-bee it is simply based on what amount you pay according to your income. No reported income--then you pay a standard set fee for your health care.

On the other hand Social Security is bankrupt--another indication that the Federal Government couldn't run a lemonade stand without bankrupting it. Now they're into health care.

Why can't it be optional to be under it and pay for it?
Why is that penalized by law to believe in the freedom to set up, fund, provide,
manage and participate in healing programs, teaching hospitals and medical
education and public service internships FREELY without being under these mandates?

What is wrong with the option that if you don't want to be under that program,
you are equally free to set up and follow your own system, similar to a religion?

If the Catholics or Muslims pushed reform that its members supported by majority rule in Congress, but dissenting members of the public objected to and demanded to fund their own programs under their own churches, wouldn't we allow them religious freedom to do so?

Why don't we respect the same for people with different political beliefs or ideologies and let them fund their own programs themselves? Why is this excluded by law where everyone is forced only to fund this one way, through insurance which is not a government function.

Remember, we are not paying directly for health care, but being required by law to buy insurance from private companies outside of government that aren't guaranteed to deliver services.

The "Greatest Philanthropist on Earth"...Bill Gates.
After all, he's one of the main forces behind the off-shoring of White Collar professions where one received a little perk called Health Benefits.
But I forget, he only provides Free Health Care for Africans!

We have to make the 53% of Americans who do pay taxes pay for it. They have to pay their fair share
