And then it becomes clear that it's actually a pretty good deal, and in the case of the ACA, a remarkably good deal, just like it is for big Dean Angstadt. But by then it's too late. They've become so publicly hostile and dismissive toward it, that as good as it is, they're afraid they'll look like an utter fool if they reverse themselves. So they don't and they end up fucked out of a benefit because of their own idiotic pride.

Repeal Obamacare

He told Angstadt, “You’re what we call a cardiac cripple.”

After signing up for insurance via the Obamacare exchange, Angstadt pays $26.11 for the Highmark Blue Cross silver PPO plan, as reported by the Inquirer. The policy took effect just before Angstadt’s surgery.

Just last week ran into an old friend. Last time we talked he was getting ready to retire. Was looking forward to the time off with grandkids.

Fast forward to now, working for another company. Asked what happen? Three weeks is all he was off work. His home is paid for and is getting a good retirement. Said he could not afford healthcare. Asked about the exchanges because everyone I know is getting great deals. Said he only checked cobra, wanted no part of ""Obamacare""!

Explained it a little better, but he still has to wait until open enrollment later this year.

Some people are the happiest when they have something to complain about.

You've got as much chance of that as you have getting some head from Kate Upton.

Refusing care under the ACA...the latest positive thinning of the herd.
