Ask doctors about perils of Obamacare

Posted December 05, 2013 3:40 am

The Affordable Health Care Law is a disaster. It has become an American genocide. The senator from South Carolina called it the worst travesty since slavery in America.

Patients who are being treated for stage 4 cancer have had their policies canceled. The insurance companies have no choice but to cancel because they do no meet the requirements of the Obamacare law. Others who are waiting for test results possibly of a life threatening disease are wondering whether to take a chance and forgo treatments or risk bankruptcy or receive inferior treatment because their doctor and hospital they trust can no longer accept their policy from the insurance exchange.

Then there is Medicare. There is a panel now that work for the IRS that will determine whether Gramma and Grampa will receive adequate life saving drugs and treatment and not their doctor in whom they have a trusted for their care.

Wake up America. Just ask your health providers that have read this 20,000 page law what a dangerous thing this is. That is if they have had the time to read this monstrous thing.
