The Full Story
Many Americans shopping for better
health insurance deals promised by the two-week-old Obamacare system are
instead being slapped with rate shock, including savings-sapping deductibles
and co-pays, according to multiple reports from around the country.
For some able to get the
problem-plagued Obamacare website to work, the so-called “deals” the system is coughing
up around the country include $12,600 deductibles, co-pays of up to 40 percent,
zero competition, and rate hikes of 260 percent.

The kickoff of Obamacare and rollout of the exchanges since
October 1 has been a disaster. It has been a technical disaster, a fiscal
disaster, and most importantly, a human disaster. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius should be held
responsible.
We now
know that the Obama administration’s early characterization of the problems as
“glitches” caused by overwhelming demand was disingenuous at best.
######
Once again
there is panic running through the halls of Congress, the Oval Office, and in
the chattering classes that make up mainstream media over the government
shutdown and the debt ceiling. Most of the panic is a result of the inability
of politicians to reach an agreement on government spending. If we hope to begin to recover true
prosperity, then making real, significant cuts in government spending should be
a top priority. Only true, substantial reductions in government spending will
free necessary capital for entrepreneurs to use in productive investment.
This investment, in turn, will allow for sustainable economic progress.
######
First, this is the BIG one.
Obama, the
consummate narcissist, having even embraced the name "ObamaCare,"
will himself, along with every member of the House and Senate with a
"D" after their name, suffer
a significant reversal of political fortune after ObamaCare is implemented. And
this will continue as long as ObamaCare exists. Why?
######
What is a dictator, or an authoritarian? I'll bet you think
you know. But perhaps you don't. Sure, Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Mao Zedong
were dictators. So were Saddam Hussein and both Hafez and Bashar al Assad. But
in many cases the situation is not that simple and stark. In many cases the reality -- and the morality
-- of the situation is far more complex.
######
(UPI) --
To end the U.S. government shutdown and raise the debt ceiling without
accepting any meaningful Republican conditions, U.S. President Barack Obama has resorted to falsehoods, wounded
American democracy and damaged U.S. global leadership.
The
president has accused the House GOP majority of refusing to pay bills Congress
has already racked up, not doing its job and defying the outcome of the 2012
election. The $17 trillion outstanding national debt funded past spending and
raising the debt ceiling is all about the government spending more than it
taxes going forward.
