The Huffington Post’s Jason Cherkis reports on a remarkable encounter between Reina Diaz-Dempsey, a Kentucky public health worker signing people up for insurance coverage under health care reform, and a middle-aged man who approached her booth at the State Fair. After Diaz-Dempsey explained that he will either qualify for tax credits to buy insurance through Kynect (the state’s new insurance marketplace) or an expanded Medicaid pool in October, the man seemed pleased and mused, “This beats Obamacare, I hope.”
those who have been duped by republican misinformation it hurts you and in publican makes you look like you are a member of the party of stupid.
Kynect is actually one of the statewide insurance marketplaces at the heart of Obamacare, and the Medicaid expansion is another provision that stems from the health reform law.But Diaz-Dempsey doesn’t tell the man that — figuring the connection to Obamacare might actually dissuade him from pursuing coverage in a state with terrible public health demographics, where one in every five adults is uninsured. The anecdote is striking for its irony.But it underscores the reality that while some Americans — including many who will benefit immensely from the law — remain opposed to the abstract specter of “Obamacare,” they actually do support its core provisions.
when he got home was he being laughed at or was he mad as hell at republicans?
Polling on the health law has consistently highlighted that paradox. A Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) tracking survey from March found skepticism about “Obamacare” but widespread approval of actual Obamacare policies. Over 75 percent of respondents like the law’s insurance subsidies; 80 percent favor the statewide insurance marketplaces; a staggering 88 percent approve of the small business tax credits to help pay for employees’ health coverage.
for those who now know and those that will republicans lied and tried to turn you against if before it was even written those who read the multi page law found it too hard to back down though some have been buying in for months under cover while singing with the right wing choir of it's "ABOMINATION",
what part of medical help and well being at a better deal then they ever gave us is an abomination the only explanation is party wide DYSLEXIA, they got it reversed, like their new reach out plan ass backwards, instead of talk to and communicate continue on the hate brick road on their way to OZ.
