LIES.

that came from taxes I paid.

Well, let my know how much I owe you and I’ll drop a few pennies in the mail. War comes from taxes you paid, and I personally dislike the amount I pay going for that… Maybe we should check “yes” or “no” on our 1040 forms this year for allocation of tax dollars.

I’m sorry you think I’m lying, but I’m not. I qualified for the Medicaid expansion under the ACA, which is partially funded through taxpayer revenue. I don’t think the IRS mailed you a letter saying, “Nah nah nah nah naaaaaaah! This year’s tax dollars went to pay for medicine for poor people mwahahaha!” Who knows? Maybe YOUR portion of tax dollars went to a Hellfire missile that took out a village in Afghanistan. Ooh, how exciting for you!

Comfort yourself with that thought as I use my inhaler, which I would not have been able to afford without the ACA.

what the fuck is wrong with Americans who aren’t on board with free healthcare. I’m Canadian and I don’t care that I pay extra taxes so a little boy in Alberta can have open heart surgery, or an elderly man in Nova Scotia can get the heart medication he desperately needs. It’s called taking care of your people. I’m glad I pay so that people can have a good quality of life. It’s called being a decent fucking human being.

There are 2 sides to obamacare and ACA.

Of course it's nice to get free medicine when you're sick, especially when you normally couldn't afford it. But have you ever realized what all that government control over your healthcare really means?

It means that your doctors are restricted as to what tests they can administer, and when they can be administered; on top of what and when they can prescribe certain medications. I like having the freedom to choose what kind of medical care I receive, not being told what I can get. If I'm sick I want to know I will be able to fill a prescription that will help cure my illness, not have to settle for something that will help with the symptoms until I'm sick enough (aka get a lot sicker) to get the more expensive drug (research Hepatitis C treatments for an example of this).

And it's not free for everyone - there are a lot of people who are paying more money now than they were before, and their coverage isn't anywhere close to being the same coverage. (I'm one of those people)

Its just as much about the 48 year old male who is diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma, that statistically doesn't have a positive prognosis for recovery (according to Obamacare calculations). So instead of receiving treatment that could save his life, he's just made comfortable for the next few months. This is a very real situation that people are forced to accept every day with Obamacare.

Healthcare is incredibly expensive. Instead of making it free (for certain people), why not focus on the problem - the astronomical price of healthcare?
