Life before Obamacare

Repeal Obamacare    
When I was unemployed or underemployed or the prisoner of a tyrant I simply went without health insurance of any kind.

No job. No premium money. No group plan.

Marginal job. Crappy coverage. No need to participate.

$10,000 deductable. Might as well not have insurance. What's the use.

I did not take to the streets whining about how "unfair" life was and how I thought that coverage was some divine right like the people are now.

I sucked it up and took my medicine in the capitalist economy in which I found myself and obtained health insurance at the first viable opportunity.

I remember the smile of the evil persian when I opted out of his ten thousand dollar deductable coverage ... then departed a scant 90 days later.

You see, some problems are not everyone's problem. We are a Republic, not a socialist welfare state. In the 21st century you get in there and "get it" or you do without.

I grow weary of what too many feel are "owed" them. Get a grip and do what I did which was the best I could in the prevailing economy. Taxing everyone to cover the masses of those who choose to lay around and breed and draw some entitlement check just won't work anymore.
