“The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small,but whether it works — whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified.” – President Obama, Inauguration (2009)
Yes, all the dirt about a person gets thrown up during campaigns especially for national ones – each candidate’s live is going to get dissected five ways to Sunday. And just during this Republican Primary campaign, much has been made about Donald Trump’s “problems”. And yes, I know personally how it feels when somebody decides to vamoose and you get stiffed. Yet, it was done legally and while you never want it to happen to you, that is part of the risk of doing business. And you are lucky if you get cents on the dollar owed.
But what can we do when a President and Political Party decided that stiffing YOU for their insistence on implementing their ideology come hell or high water? What is your redress? In this case, nothin’:
DOCTORS, HOSPITALS GETTING STIFFED FOR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BY OBAMACARE CO-OPS: A dozen of the 24 Obamacare health insurance co-ops established at a cost of $2.5 billion in 2012 have failed (and more are expected to do so). Now, hundreds of doctors, hospitals and other health care providers who served co-op policyholders are being muscled aside by federal bureaucrats claiming the government should be the first creditor in the bankruptcy line.
So, twice screwed over – once by taking taxes from you for purposes that the Federal Government should not be doing and then again when not only are you out the tax money, you ain’t getting paid either:
Richard Pollock of the Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group reports the “Medical Society of New York estimates that hundreds of millions of dollars are owed to doctors and hospitals due to collapse of Health Republic of New York, the largest Obamacare co-op.” That’s just one state. Expect the total losses to be in the billions when all the accounting is completed.
Ayup – just another “Christmas present” from the Democrat Party that is “all for the working people” even as we see their signature legislation stiffing the same people. After all, who mans the labs, the x-ray machines, the kitchens, the back office work, run the laundry operations, and cleans the rooms? So who REALLY gets hurts – those few via Trump or the huge number of those getting shafted by our “transformed” healthcare system” that the Democrats have spawned? I hope, especially if it is Trump that gets the nod, that he POUNDS either Democrat in the race with this over and over and over again.
Will the Democrats be willing to make these “little people” whole? Er, no:
“…are being muscled aside by federal bureaucrats claiming the government should be the first creditor in the bankruptcy line”
So, once again, we see the true face of Government – there is no “heart”. Especially if you get in the way of “Government trying to do good. If Government owns it, IT OWNS IT.
And you, apparently.
