Obama Care Knowledge Quiz

The following quiz is from the National Center for Policy Analysis. I've abbreviated it simply to save space.

1. Under ObamaCare, will your health care coverage be identical to every other American’s?

If you said NO, you are correct. ObamaCare was passed with special deals that treat citizens unequally depending on their geographic status and the nature of their jobs. For example, members of certain labor unions are exempt from requirements other Americans have to meet, and Floridians on Medicare Advantage receive special treatment under the law.


2. Will ObamaCare will save every American money on their health coverage?

If you said NO, you are correct! Some Americans will pay far more. A $30,000-a-year worker with a family will only get a $2000 subsidy. A $60,000-a-year family will get a subsidy twice as large!

3. Under ObamaCare, will you be required to purchase health insurance whether you can afford it or not?

If you said YES, you are correct!
Actually you'll be fined if you don’t purchase health insurance. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that by 2016, nearly 4 million Americans will be fined as much as $1,000 per year which the IRS will collect!

4. Will senior citizens pay less for prescription drugs and medical devices?

If you said NO, you are correct. In 2011, new taxes will drive up the cost of prescription drugs. In 2013, higher taxes on medical devices such as pacemakers will similarly increase costs for senior citizens.

5. Do you think you'll NEVER lose your employer provided health insurance?

If you answered NO, you are correct! As many as 35 million Americans could lose their employee-based health coverage and be forced into plans and subsidies provided by the federal or state government exchanges.

HRA - Obama Care & Over 50 employee Groups

In my last post I stated that the under 50 employee group health plans would be vacated by employers. Since then others have concurred. However I didn't expect that the very large companies, especially those which were Obama supporters would join the fray.

Read the following post concerning large companies. If they are correct, and if I and others are correct the exchange tables are going to be very busy indeed.

"Is Healthcare reform The End Of Employer Medical Insurance coverage?"

You know, I continue to read blogs that think the current law is simply full of errors that the administration did not intend.

I don't agree. I think it is all by design. It is designed to create a single payer government run and controlled take over of the US health care system.

It is definitely time for prayer.
