Helping the poor

Freepers respond to an article about how the shutdown will effect benefits for poor people with a combination of contempt for the poor and rage on their behalf for the horror that Obamacare will visit on them.

svcw has his priorities:
Do poor families go to national parks and monuments a lot.
The other stuff is just crap.
leapfrog0202 tells a story that seems totally legit:
A friend’s daughter (23 or so with 2 kids) is on Medicaid and went to the urgent care today to get treated for an ear infection.

She was told Medicaid was stopped - no warning and that if she wanted treatment she would have to pay upfront to enroll in Obamacare right at the urgent care.

I told my friend to send her to an ER because they have to treat everyone regardless of if they can pay. She called the one nearest their home and they said for her to enroll in Obamacare before showing up or she wouldn’t be seen.

The girl had barely any money so the mom paid for 3 months worth of Obamacare for the daughter on her debit card and off she went to the ER.
jsanders2001:
The shutdown might get them off their butts and start looking for work but there’s one big problem; there’s no work due to 0’s horrible economic policies, poor leadership, and Obamacare. You get the AntiChrist out of office and things will turnaround.
Wow, the AntiChrist is really easily thwarted!

ladyjane -Sluts get to starve!:
Why isn’t the girl’s husband providing for them?


GOPJ lays out how Obamacare only helps liberals, blacks, and unions.
Well, liberal elites will be better off... Doctors will stop seeing new patients under the current system - and move toward concierge medicine. Liberal elites will pay a doctor like they now pay their country club fees. For them ObamaCare has cleaned out the waiting room of all those middle class Americans who eat at places like Olive Garden.

Liberal elites are BETTER OFF.

The other highly dependable dem voters are inner city blacks. Their health care is now FREE and they don't have to wait in Hospital Emergency rooms for hours for care...

Underclass and inner city blacks are BETTER OFF.

Same with illegals. For them - the new system is better. For Union members is worse - but have faith - Obama and dems will find a way to create an exemption for them.

Union members WILL be BETTER OFF with tweaks that come from massive 'donations' to dem pols...

Who's left? The rest of us - and as our companies drop medical care to save money - it'll get worse. The middle class is totally screwed. In short - the people who don't back Obama... Not that he's acting like a Chicago thug or anything.

The middle class is WORSE OFF and it'll get worse with time.

    1. ha, even the other Freepers are calling leapfrog out on that one. Sounds like they know how it works.

      I bet a lot of them are going to sign up for Medicaid or discounted care once they find out it's private and everyone else is doing it.

    2. The Tea Patiers biggest fear is people finding out that Affordable Care works and is a pretty good deal.

  3. Ah yes, I remember back to my childhood and being so envious of all the rich liberal white kids and their private, white-only country clubs. I hate them so much now that those liberals are all grown up and, with all their wealth, paying for their concierge medical services.

      99.9999% were staunch conservative/republican business owners..
