"I didn't know I'd be paying for it personally!"

Copied from another forum, from the San Jose Mercury News ironically!!!!

I didn't know I would be paying for it "personally"
Democrat Voters Confused:

Back in 2008, when then-candidate Obama promised Joe the Plumber and the rest of America that he intended to spread the wealth around, most democrat and liberal voters embraced the notion of wealth redistribution under the guise of equality. A universal health care plan, that would be free for all Americans, was the promise from the candidate of hope and change.
Tens of millions of Americans jumped on the bandwagon waving their flags, fainting at his appearances, and fawning over his every word.

None ever thought about where the money would come from for all this new found wealth he promised to bestow upon them.

But those who understand that socialism, communism and governance by the collective are failed experiments, warned where that money would come from. It would be taken by force from the toils of the middle class, and it�d impoverish them in the process.

Now the myrmidons who once vehemently supported the policies of President Barack Obama without question are coming to the realization that when Obama spoke about spreading the wealth he actually meant their wealth too!

Cindy Vinson is one such supporter. This month, like many Americans who have health insurance through their employer or private insurers, Vinson got an unwanted awakening to the reality of government sponsored wealth confiscation and redistribution:

Cindy Vinson and Tom Waschura are big believers in the Affordable Care Act. They vote independent and are proud to say they helped elect and re-elect President Barack Obama.

Yet, like many other Bay Area residents who pay for their own medical insurance, they were floored last week when they opened their bills: Their policies were being replaced with pricier plans that conform to all the requirements of the new health care law.

Vinson, of San Jose, will pay $1,800 more a year for an individual policy, while Waschura, of Portola Valley, will cough up almost $10,000 more for insurance for his family of four.� You SHOULD have read the bill

�I was laughing at Boehner � until the mail came today,� Waschura said, referring to House Speaker John Boehner, who is leading the Republican charge to defund Obamacare.

�I really don�t like the Republican tactics, but at least now I can understand why they are so pissed about this. When you take $10,000 out of my family�s pocket each year, that�s otherwise disposable income or retirement savings that will not be going into our local economy.�

Both Vinson and Waschura have adjusted gross incomes greater than four times the federal poverty level � the cutoff for a tax credit. And while both said they anticipated their rates would go up, they didn�t realize they would rise so much.

�Of course, I want people to have health care,� Vinson said. �I just didn�t realize I would be the one who was going to pay for it personally.�

Prior the passage of Obamacare Congressional switchboards lit up with 99 out of 100 Americans urging their representatives to throw the legislation out.

They didn�t listen. They passed the bill without even reading it. In fact, they didn�t even make it public until a few hours before the vote and by then it was too late.


For people like Mr. Washcura and Ms. Vinson it must have been pretty funny to see Republicans, Libertarians, and anti-establishment extremists getting frustrated and angered.

They must have looked on with glee and a sense of victory.

You�re not laughing anymore are you, Ms. Vinson?

Now that Ms. Vinson and Mr. Washcura know they are the ones footing the bill to provide free health care to the �less fortunate� out of their life savings and retirement accounts, they�re very quickly coming to the realization that they�ve been bamboozled by the very person who promised them hope, change, free housing, free gas, free phones, free medicine and a host of other government-issued services.

Socialism is an awesome idea, isn�t it?

Until it�s you who has to foot the bill.

Ms. Vinson wanted hard working Americans to feel the pain, to give up their life�s work for equal wealth distribution, and she voted to force these mandates on unwilling Americans at the barrel of a gun.

Who�s in front of the barrel now, Ms. Vinson?

You, and the rest of the 50 million people who elected Barack Obama to not one, but two terms, deserve the pain that�s coming.

You asked for it. Now bask in it.

Here's 90% of the difference between Dimocrats and Republicans.

It's amazing on how many Americans eyes are starting to open. To bad it's to late.

Not too late. Elections next year, I'll be sitting home wrapped in an American flag laughing watching the poll results. These commie azzwipes have a surprise coming.

Even stupid "hope and change" wastoids can figure out when THEY are being screwed.

Things can change but to much damage has been done. Even if they repeal obamacare, can you imagine how long, if ever, folks can get there old policy back? I know rates do rise every year and if yours hasn't changed much, I'm happy for you. I know a lot of folks who got that magical jan 1st notice.

Then you got our debt. These bastards are looking for a limit that would spend a million a minute? I hope that's a stretch of the truth.

It's gonna take a lot to get this country back on track. Obama will still be president and the dems will still control the senate ( even after the mid terms). I just hope we still control the house.

Unfortunately, I believe you're going to have a long night. I really, REALLY, hope I'm wrong about this though, and you're laughing all night.

Way to go, Cindy Vinson!

These dumbphucks think it is okay still to steal money from others but not from them.....wow the [bleep] irony of it all? Stupid [bleep] like these should be hung!

The People who voted for the Kenyan are the same suckers who fell for the whispered benefits of supporting a communist revolution: they wake up too late after the reality of it all visits their doorstep.

The best definition I ever heard to describe a liberal:

Somebody who is perfectly willing to give you the shirt off of somebody else's back.

as long as 50% or so of the voters are members of the recipient class, liberals/progressives will continue to get elected. That middle class folks have to foot the bill is of little consequence to the hoodies.

First off, most liberals do not have any idea how the Government has money. They think that since the Government controls the printing press, they can just print what they need. They have no idea that the money has to first be taken from somebody, maybe them. They do not see the idea that more money spent means somebody has to pay more. They hear tax the rich and are all for it until the Government decides that they are one of the rich. I blame our education system and individual greed. miles

where they got it wrong is they aren't paying for it personally,

anyone that is above the poverty line working is paying for it.

The bane of capitalism is greed.

The bane of democracy is voter entitlements.

Both have ruined this country.

Capitalism built this great country. Entitlements are destroying it. Might say, I don't agree with you.

I pray you're right, however the 51%+ of Santa Clause giftees will be loathe to cut off the hand that gives them freebies..

Trouble is, most of 'em LOVE it - since it comes from The Chosen One...

Moonies are more resistant than libby clowns..

There are some very intelligent democrats in this country. Unfortunately, they use the other 99% for their own gain and those folks are too damn stupid to realize it.

pretty fitting i'd say. just wait until all the 20-somethings that voted for zero turn 27 and have to get off mom&dads insurance plan. surprise. surprise, surprise.

I didn't say capitalism is bad. I said greed is killing capitalism.

I hope Obama Care bankrupt the country and put these sorry ass welfare loving liberals out in the street begging for food and a place to sleep.
