No Joke: Pelosi Says Americans Should Use 4th Of July To Celebrate Obamacare…
She is clearly insane.
Via Washington Examiner:
Because of Obamacare, the Fourth of July has taken on a whole new significance: not only do Americans celebrate the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, they also celebrate “health independence” delivered by the law.
“Next week, when we celebrate Independence Day we’ll also be observing health independence,” Pelosi told reporters today,explaining that “this week marks one year since the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act. It captures the spirit of our founders,” she added, citing the Preamble to the Declaration of Independence.”So, we’ve had Social Security, Medicare, and now health independence, so that’s something our members will take home to celebrate over this Independence Day.”

Pretending to listen, they created a monster they can't even get started that's why the delay.
Speaking of evil, the Treasury Department decided to delay implementation of forcing or fining businesses to provide healthcare to their workers, but only for 1 year. How nice of the government to listen to feedback. I bet they are more concerned about shredding the economy.

Yes, it's becoming a common practice. Also, court fees... get a ticket and you pay the fine plus court fees, sometimes $50+. For more serious offenses, the price goes up.
In Arizona if you go to a county jail you are charged $35 per day and have to pay that back when you get out.
Don't pay court fines and costs, you can go to jail.
Yes, Kim, people will have to work more than one job, but will still get no insurance.
Jason do not forget there is always a fine for not paying the fine they call it interest but is really just an escalating fine.
If companies go to part-time that will just force certain workers to find a second part time job or third...
I've read that there is a $95 per year IRS fine for not having insurance after 2014. I wonder how unemployed people are supposed to pay that fine, or worse yet, O-care premiums. I wonder how many laws it takes to crush a country. We have new federal and state laws clamping down every year. Next, we have county and sometimes city ordinances telling us what we can or can't have or do. Eventually this whole system will collapse in on itself from all of the laws and regulations.
And people still have to pay for it, so I've heard (though not researched it).
It is really quite crazy to try to elevate Obamacare to the level of what the 4th of July holiday means. Freedom? Independence? Forget all that.
Many say it was set up to fail on purpose. Many large company's have changed to part time employees to avoid going bankrupt from the high cost they will incur with this socialist document. Kiss your full time job goodbye will be happening to many, that should destroy the rest of the middle class.
