This cold blooded attitude by the GOP is a classic example of why republican lawmakers cannot connect with women and minorities. Republicans seem to care only for the affluent, and view the poor (and those struggling to find jobs) as human debris that should be ignored. This attitude stands in stark contrast to their christian values image they try so hard to nurture. With this clearly in mind, its easy to see why a majority of Americans now favor keeping Obamacare in place, despite it's flawed rollout

The issue should be taken care of by the states. Although I don't agree with Romenycare, it is an example of what I'm talking about.

Anyone sense a "We do not hate poor people" thread coming soon?
how about "poor people are lazy bums. if only they would work as hard as me"
or "everyone can have his/her dream come true, you just have to keep trying"
or "health trickles down, bro, just be patient"
or "500k a year might sound much, but it is really hard to live on that"
or my favorite: "I never got help from anyone, why do YOU ask for help"

Your thread title line is just a flat out lie. By the time Obama Care is fully implemented there will likely be just as many or more uninsured as there were before it, and everyone else will be paying a lot more and getting worse service.

by setting a decent price for insurance middle class americans could afford, the insurance companies are getting a steady income from healthy americans with low risk of getting actually sick.
meanwhile, people who actually do need medical attention are left out.
pretty clever, huh? and completely inhumane
