What's the impact of Obamacare for you (and your family)? Assuming it doesn't get defunded or delayed, of course...

I live in a state that's embracing Obamacare and it looks like I'm set for cheaper and/or better healthcare.

It doesn't have to be impartial, as long as the facts reported therein are true. That's what I want to know, are lots of corporations dumping their employees on to the exchanges?

Some surely are, but Wegmans had already dumped coverage for employees with 20 hours or less, and is now dumping the ones working 20-30 hours.  Would they have dumped these workers under Bushcare?  Maybe.  Not every change is for the better for every person affected by it.

I certainly wouldn't consider this articles "facts" to be anything to base an opinion on, however.

So, your saying businesses are not dumping their employee's healthcare and sending them to Nobamacare.

Businesses have been dumping health care for years.  Republitards thought it was great under Bushcare, but now that it is happening under Obamacare, they think it is worse than the Holocaust.  It's hysterical for us moderates to watch.  All you 'tards are so predictable.

I went on the site for shits and giggles. First page shows what looks to be a black/asian/mexican female. Second page was two asians female. Third page had a black female in a moo-moo.  :lol: Talk about sterotyping.

Tricare is already a big steaming pile of crap (for us non-dependents, anyway).

I'm pretty sure that your plan costs more than that. The difference is that your employer pays a portion, whereas, GF's plan is for personal.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...
