Obamacare is Fake.

Obamacare gefälscht ist und eine grosse Lüge. Ich habe die Beweise unten auf diesem bescheidenen Blog Post heute... Bitte Lesen und teilen.
Ich hoffe, dass meine Freunde und Leser in Deutschland lesen mein blog post bald wieder, und ich hoffe, ich habe sie nicht beleidigt, sie in irgendeiner Weise. Es tut mir Leid, wenn ich etwas Falsches gesagt oder unvorteilhaft. Wussten Sie, dass über 20% - 25% aller US-Amerikaner deutscher Abstammung sind? Das ist der Grund, warum Amerika ist so stark und klug! Ich denke auch, dass die deutschen Frauen sind einige der schönsten in der ganzen Welt ! Aber unser neuer Präsident Trump's Frau ist schön, und seine Töchter !
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Hello Friends,
    I am so happy that an email friend sent this post to me to explain what is  really going on behind the scenes,   but I already guessed as much.   If something critical comes from the Lefty-Lose-y side of the aisle,  we can pretty much 'smell a rat !'   It's like you can almost bet the next month's rent of the Liberal -Socialists LYING all of the time !   What ever "god" they worship allows or encourages them to lie, constantly, all the time !   But they have many 'gods,'  --- take your pick:  the god of money, sex, material things, fame, glory, and ever perversion under the sun.   


I never said that I was a 'saint,'  but I stopped being a heathen about 20 years ago.   And I just figured out that I have also been retired for about 15 years,  from 2001 onward, when I retired from Chrysler at the tender age of  54.   But I was pretty much all burned out from super hard work, injuries, and breathing the toxic fumes that we had to work in at the auto factory, etc.   I wish I still had my power and strength,  but I am blessed that I now have the Lord and Salvation.  


Well,  the way I feel right now after Mr. Trump was sworn in on Friday, is like every day now is GRAVY on the mashed potatoes !!   He does a little bit more of 'draining the swamp,' every day !   I love every bit of it !  
      But after you read the short true article below,  you will see how totally ignorant those who march in the women's group protect march today in Washington D.C., as they are misled and misinformed, as usual, by the Left --Socialists, claiming that 'obamacare' is somehow a "good thing," --LOL.   Just read, and you will see why.


Warm Regards,
Tom  Schuckman




From The Daily SignalWhy Obamacare’s ‘20 Million’ Number Is Fake.
Liberals are notorious for caring about “groups” of people, but when it gets down to individual persons, not so much. You’re about to see this play out in spades as Democrats cry crocodile tears over the coming repeal of Obamacare.
You hear it over and over again: “This will be catastrophic for the 20 million people who were previously uninsured but now have coverage! You can’t take away their health care!”
First of all, no one is talking about doing that. Any repeal legislation will have a transition period for those who got coverage through Obamacare to move to new plans. And second, they will have more choices and better options. Win. Win.
But liberals would rather focus on quantity, how many millions we’ve given something to, versus quality, what does that “gift” mean for individual people.
The Obama administration claims 20 million more Americans today have health care due to Obamacare. But that is based on six years of survey data, not actual sign-ups. The reality is that when you look at the actual net gains over the past two years since the program was fully implemented, the number is 14 million, and of that, 11.8 million (84 percent) were people given the “gift” of Medicaid.
And new research shows that even fewer people will be left without insurance after the repeal of Obamacare. Numbers are still being crunched, but between statistics released by the Congressional Budget Office and one of the infamous architects of Obamacare, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Jonathan Gruber, it’s estimated that anywhere from 2 to 7 million people now on Medicaid would have qualified for the program even without Obamacare.
That further discredits the administration’s claim of 20 million more Americans having health insurance because of Obamacare.
Multiple studies have also shown that even those who are uninsured often have better outcomes than those with Medicaid. A University of Virginia study found that for eight different surgical procedures, Medicaid patients were more likely to die than privately insured or uninsured patients. They were also more likely to suffer complications.
And it is important to note that this study focused on procedures done from 2003-2007, prior to the geniuses in Washington deciding it was a good idea to put even more people on the already overburdened Medicaid system.
Additionally, despite what proponents of the law promised, there is little evidence to show that the use of emergency rooms, which have a higher level of medical errors, has decreased due to Obamacare.
Then there is this reality: While Obamacare has handed out millions of new Medicaid cards, that does not mean the recipients now have quality health care. In fact, it doesn’t ensure they have health care at all. That’s because increasing numbers of doctors aren’t accepting Medicaid.
As a Louisiana woman told The New York Times, “My Medicaid card is useless for me right now. It’s a useless piece of plastic. I can’t find an orthopedic surgeon or a pain management doctor who will accept Medicaid.”
Keep that in mind every time liberal Democratic senators pull out the Kleenex boxes bemoaning the fact Republicans are the ones trying to take people’s health care away.
Speaking of which, a much underreported fact of Obamacare is how many truly needy and disabled Americans are NOT getting the services they need because of the expansion of Medicaid for able-bodied adults (aka healthy) of prime working age, 19-54.
So while the left talks about all the new people Obamacare is helping, it neglects to mention that over half a million disabled people, from those with developmental disabilities to traumatic brain injuries, are on waiting lists for care.
And many of them are on waiting lists because Obamacare gives states more money to enroll able-bodied adults than it does to take care of disabled children and adults who qualified for Medicaid prior to Obamacare.
If you think that doesn’t have a real-world perverse impact, note this. Since Arkansas expanded its Medicaid program under Obamacare, it’s rolls have grown by 25 percent. During that same time, 79 people on the Medicaid waiting list who suffered from developmental disabilities have died. I would encourage you to read my former Heritage Foundation colleague Chris Jacob’s full piece on this.
Finally, it’s not just those enrolled in Medicaid that are finding fewer health care provider options. For people who now have health plans through the Obamacare exchanges, new Heritage Foundation research shows that this year, in 70 percent of counties across the country, those consumers will have only one or two insurers to choose from.
Add to that the millions of people who lost the doctors and health plans they liked and are now paying higher premiums for less coverage, and you can see that quality health care and anything resembling “choice” has quickly disappeared for an increasing number of Americans due to Obamacare.
So the next time a defender of Obamacare tries to take the moral high ground about the millions of people the law has helped, ask them to define what “help” looks like.
