And it starts,
.
Two weeks after President Barack Obama signed the big health care overhaul into law, Americans are struggling to understand how — and when — the sweeping measure will affect them.
Questions reflecting confusion have flooded insurance companies, doctors' offices, human resources departments and business groups.
"They're saying, 'Where do we get the free Obama care, and how do I sign up for that?' " said Carrie McLean, a licensed agent for eHealthInsurance.com. The California-based company sells coverage from 185 health insurance carriers in 50 states.
McLean said the call center had been inundated by uninsured consumers who were hoping that the overhaul would translate into instant, affordable coverage. That widespread misconception may have originated in part from distorted rhetoric about the legislation bubbling up from the hyper-partisan debate about it in Washington and some media outlets, such as when opponents denounced it as socialism.
"We tell them it's not free, that there are going to be things in place that help people who are low-income, but that ultimately most of that is not going to be taking place until 2014," McLean said.
Adults with pre-existing conditions are frustrated to learn that insurers won't have to cover them until 2014 (though those under 18 will be protected in late September); then they become both hopeful and confused upon learning that a federal high-risk pool for them will be established in the next few months.
...decided later, 2014, next September, decision boards, forms, agents, answers to come, decisions yet to be made... Yep, we're MUCH better off now.

QUOTABLE QUOTES
"The New Left does not portend a revolution, as its press agents claim, but a Putsch. A revolution is the climax of a long philosophical development and expresses a nation’s profound discontent; a Putsch is a minority’s seizure of power. The goal of a revolution is to overthrow tyranny; the goal of a Putsch is to establish it."
– Ayn Rand
First he has to increase the income tax on the wealthy (def: anyone who still has a job). Then add in another 20% new VAT. Then we can give away more stuff to the parasites.
While the people are financially strangled, the politicians keep spending. We once had a revolution in this country over abusive and unfair taxation. It's time for another one.
OT,
You can bet your life this whole census nonsense will end up going sideways. You can also bet that most of the hundreds-of-thousands of census workers will be black union members, and after their work is turned in, we'll find that blacks make up 89.9% of the US population and are therefor entitled to a much larger part of the money YOU earn.

Hmmmm...what's that flushing sound...must be Anon comments, being flushed for the same name calling, bullshit, just like I promised.
As to the racism, I addressed WHITE PEOPLE WITH THEIR HAND OUT TOO...how many non-white people have you ever heard call someone, "...Buddy'ro..."? As usual, you're long on insults, short on facts or truth Anon.
Now, you're short of comment, too.
Too late. The "progressives" already Humpty-Dumpty'd the country
Jeez, it's like a public toilet in here, all that flushing, not to mention the smell and the foul languaged graffiti.
Don't look now but the next time you go to the Dr he's going to implant a chip in your head so Obama can control you!
First, I trust my Primary implicitly, never gonna happen. And they'll be putting in my body after I'm dead, and many of them would be too, before I get an implant, tracker, federal ID chip or whatever.
I won't be lining up, with a big happy, liberal grin on my mug like you and your crowd.
But think of all the food, health care and free shit you'll get when we're all dead or in "the camps".
(what a putz)
