Every American citizen is now required to help make insurance corporations richer. Enjoy!

278. Thank you, you have explained what many people don't seem to want to acknowledge.

I also have tried to explain, that it is the working poor who are just above the line, as you stated, who will be the most screwed. Right now, many of them choose between food for their families or HC and food is the obvious choice, with prayers that no one gets sick. They are 'too rich' for Medicaid, unless they get sick and make themselves indigent and too poor to buy coverage. These are the people who DIE each year because they cannot get health care.

Now, they will have an added cost for which they will get nothing in return. Either a tax/penalty which will take money from their food budget, or be forced to buy a shoddy product which will be the cheapest they can find, and which they will never use because of the huge co-pays. But the 'silver lining' is the Insurance Corps will benefit.

Iow, millions of poor working class people will now be making donations to the Insurance Corps. These were the 'commodity' the Ins. Corps had their eye on, as Wendell Potter told us several years ago. What a machiavellian plot it was. Because these people will pay but will cost the Ins Corps nothing.

There needs to be a movement starting NOW, to change this before it all just becomes acceptable, another burden on the working class while the rich get richer.
