Health Care is readily explained on the back of a 300 foot roll of M.A.S.H. stationary AKA "toilet paper", if one can figure out all the legalese bafflegab.

If you are confused about the health care reform/deform bill, you are not alone. The Kaiser Family Foundation which is a nonprofit, nonpartisan health care policy research organization determined that 53 percent of Americans admit they still don’t know what the health care bill means. Confusion is increasing as the rip-off time approaches when payments begin four years ahead of coverage.(1)

It is truly complex, leftist socialist rabid politicking, and the lap-dog media spin insulating 535 politician crooks and liars over the last year or so denying death panels, knowing full well that bureaucrats will be deciding who is to live and who is to die early. Thus it is not surprising at all why many Americans are in the dark with the mushrooms and that "fertilizer" being thrown at them/us. Nevertheless Kaiser has weighed in to alay a few misconceptions for wealthy over-paid government workers/sloths/bureacrats/Czars.

As for the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program premiums, still no word from OPM on when they’ll be released. As soon as they hear something, their FedLine readers will be the first to know.

Many Americans in academia are in the dark with the mushrooms and that "fertilizer" being thrown at them/us is the same because “Accuracy Crisis” exists in the main stream media and among journalists, just as it does in academia by design so that everybody does not demand wavers and exemptions as had McDonald's and over 3000 other "fortunate sons" as Credence Clearwater Revival would say.(2)

We don't need Government controlled Health Care Period! Really have you ever seen anything handled properly that the Government has their hand in?? (3)

NO! It is another way for the government to try to control us! All it has done is cause our insurance to go up and our deductible to go WAY UP!(4)

For the uneducated like you, obama care is at its first anniversary. It has been in effect for one year. You have comprehension skill problems or either you don't read much. Find a subject to post upon what you are informed or continue to let everyone know how hopelessly ignorant on this subject you really are. BTW, the White House is under law suit now for not allowing Americans to know which companies have been given wavers, and the companies given wavers so they will not have to participate is in the thousands. obama is trying to hide the exact amount of companies that do not want to participate in his great scam.*** Some insurance rates have climbed 40% in anticipation of the cost they will incur under obama care. It has gotten so bad obama doesn't want his name attached to the national health obama care program in fear it will cost him the next election.(5)
