| 2/17/2014 - If you like your job, you might not be able to keep it under Obamacare. Following reports that millions of full-time employees have already been laid off or relegated to part-time status as a result of the so-called "Affordable Care Act" (ACA) being declared law, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO)...
|
| 2/14/2014 - The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has announced that the equivalent of roughly 2 million full-time American workers will vanish from the U.S. economy by 2017 as a result of Obamacare, and one Democrat lawmaker from Minnesota says this is a good thing, because "American work too much anyway."
During...
|
| 2/11/2014 - The Affordable Care Act continues to unravel before the public's eyes, spilling its true guts, releasing more turmoil into the medical industry. Patients and their doctors are now witnessing rationed care and cost controls. In California, one cancer patient cannot find an available doctor in his area,...
|
| 2/7/2014 - To say that the roll-out of Obamacare is not going well is perhaps the understatement of the year. But even more than that, those who predicted that the law would ultimately collapse on itself might have been prophetic.
In particular, the "individual mandate" - the part of the law that the U.S. Supreme...
|
| 2/6/2014 - One of Obamacare's "selling points" - and yes, there were many - was that the cost of healthcare would come down. That is, the cost of actual care that Americans would have to pay out-of-pocket, as well as the prices that people pay for healthcare delivery.
As you are aware, especially if you're...
|
| 2/4/2014 - When President Obama began campaigning for the Affordable Care Act early in his first term, he promised the American people that they would be able to keep their existing insurance plan under the new law. The opposite has quickly become true; many have lost coverage and are now being forced to pay more...
|
| 2/3/2014 - A noted hacker who is one of the good guys and who owns a firm dedicated to finding security flaws in government and corporate websites says it recently took him all of four minutes to hack into Healthcare.gov, the federal government's online Obamacare exchange.
And what's more, the same expert had...
|
| 1/30/2014 - It's no secret that most of the Hollywood elite lean very left politically, so it comes as no surprise that this same crowd is filled with diehard fans of President Obama. They have raised money for him, have publicly lauded him and now, it seems, are working covertly to convince Americans of the virtues...
|
| 1/28/2014 - A large number of uninsured citizens continue to refuse health insurance plans designated by the Affordable Care Act. People just aren't signing up as big government intended. As a matter of fact, only 15 percent of those expected to sign up actually have.
The Obamacare individual mandate just isn't...
|
| 1/27/2014 - If you are still fortunate enough to call yourself "middle class," enjoy it while you can, because thanks to the ravages of Obamacare, you're liable to lose that status at some point in the future.
Since Oct. 1, when the individual mandate kicked in and health insurance plans were required to include...
|
| 1/18/2014 - It's not just glitch-prone and vague about important components of health insurance coverage, like how much it will cost. But the federal online Obamacare exchange, Healthcare.gov, is also a wet dream for hackers, despite the millions spent to "fix" it.
That's the diagnosis of a number of Web security...
|
| 1/16/2014 - There are so many details packed into the government's takeover of one-sixth of the U.S. economy - otherwise known as Obamacare - that nary a week goes by when Americans don't learn something new about the massive, 2,700-page law.
What's more, because of the law's expansive regulations, President...
|
| 1/15/2014 - The president promised repeatedly for years that his signature legislation would not cause anyone to lose their health insurance. That has now been proven to be a lie.
He also promised that his law would lower health insurance premiums for all Americans as well. However, as millions are now discovering,...
|
| 1/14/2014 - The progressive gurus on Capitol Hill thought they had pulled off a political coup de grace when the president took pen in hand (several, actually) to sign the Affordable Care Act into law in March 2010.
And indeed, in terms of advancing the century-old progressive movement, Obamacare did in fact...
|
| 1/14/2014 - For sure, most people who work in the healthcare field do so because they care about taking care of folks and making people well. But at the same time, it is the way in which they make their living, so, like the rest of us who still have a job in Obama's economy, they expect to be paid for their services.
Obamacare,...
|
| 1/13/2014 - Some Republicans in Congress have suggested that, rather than focusing on repealing Obamacare, the GOP should just stand back and allow the law to "collapse on its own."
Well, I've never really heard of a law doing that. But no matter, because support for Obamacare is collapsing, in essence, and...
|
| 1/12/2014 - We here at Natural News have spent quite a bit of virtual "ink" reporting on the lies and deceit, the pitfalls and the problems, of Obamacare.
In recent months, we've reported that the president lied about what the law would and would not do; about how you can't keep your current plan (or your doctor);...
|
| 1/9/2014 - Union leaders and members have long been Democratic Party constituents, so it was no surprise that, when President Obama and congressional Democrats were pushing the Affordable Care Act in 2009 and 2010, the country's largest unions backed the measure as well.
During its passage, AFL-CIO president...
|
| 1/8/2014 - One of the many promises made by President Obama and his supporters regarding the Affordable Care Act was that, finally, all Americans would have health insurance.
Well, like most of the other promises regarding the law, this one has been broken as well. In fact, the data is in: More people have...
|
| 1/7/2014 - We hate to tell you we told you so, but we did. Or, more specifically, our editor, Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, did.
In a column published Oct. 6 - just five days after the official epic fail launch of Obamacare's federal and state online insurance exchanges - Mike made this bold and, as it turns...
|
| 1/3/2014 - Are you required to have health insurance after Jan. 1? Are businesses with more than 50 employees supposed to insure each of them by now? What about options - can you keep your catastrophic coverage and your old insurance plan?
All of these questions and more are now up in the air, thanks to the...
|
| 1/3/2014 - Under our small "r" republican system of government, when the presidents sign bills passed by both chambers of Congress, it becomes a law that the chief executive, by his oath of office, affirms that he will "faithfully" execute and uphold.
With few exceptions, presidents generally fulfilled this...
|
| 1/2/2014 - Well, it's not much of a "win" for Obamacare, and it's certainly not a victory for Oregon taxpayers.
According to the Washington Examiner, the state's healthcare exchange was once touted as a model for President Obama's signature piece of legislation. But after signing up only 44 people throughout...
|
| 12/31/2013 - As reported by The New York Times, the Democrats are going to try to get the public's mind off of the costly disaster of Obamacare this coming election year by supporting large increases in the minimum wage.
"Democratic Party leaders, bruised by months of attacks on the new health care program, have...
|
| 12/27/2013 - Opponents of the federal government's takeover of the healthcare industry via the most freedom-robbing law passed in a century - Obamacare - have not been able to convince enough lawmakers or the president to repeal it through legislation.
In addition, opponents have also been unsuccessful at having...
|
| 12/26/2013 - Obamacare's minimal coverage requirements, which are substantially raising the cost of premiums, aren't just hurting the private sector, but they are hitting corporations and the public sector as well.
In Missouri, for instance, officials at a public school district have learned recently that the...
|
| 12/19/2013 - Political science is not medical science, obviously, and it may seem odd to have physicians running for Congress. But because of the disaster that is Obamacare, some doctors are hanging up their stethoscopes in exchange for your vote.
In all, eleven doctors are running as Republicans for the U.S....
|
| 12/18/2013 - Thanks to Obamacare, now - finally - "every American will have access to quality medical care," which, of course, is their "right."
Only - that's wrong. On both counts.
First, there is no inherent "right to health care," either in the Constitution or state laws, just as there is no inherent "right"...
|
| 12/17/2013 - If a corporation rolled out a new web-based service like the federal and state governments have rolled out Obamacare exchanges in such an "epic fail" manner, they would be lucky if they stayed in business a week. But because the Affordable Care Act's online exchanges are government projects, we are...
|
| 12/15/2013 - One of the worst parts of the Affordable Care Act - besides the fact that it is unaffordable for millions of Americans - is the negative impact that it will have on our national debt.
When the president and his minions were selling this turkey to the American people, one of the "selling points" was...
|
| 12/13/2013 - Don't look now, America, but another very predictable consequence of Obamacare is beginning to play out.
Not only are customers losing their insurance plans - the plans Obama said they could keep - but now, insurance companies are dropping physicians from coverage plans as well.
As reported by...
|
| 12/13/2013 - President Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid don't have much respect or use for the Constitution. That much is made plain by their actions.
The Senate leader recently ditched a couple centuries' worth of tradition by scuttling the chamber's filibuster rules - rules which help protect the...
|
| 12/13/2013 - Whenever I hear Barack Obama talk about government "compassion" and benevolence, I nearly lose my lunch. The man couldn't be lying more if he was telling you that you can keep your health insurance and doctor, or that your coverage rates will decrease $2,500 a year.
Under his "leadership," federal...
|
| 12/12/2013 - What if you're getting cancer treatments now, and they are covered by your insurance, but then Obamacare cancels your insurance, will you have massive collections that eat up any tax refund you would have received? Will there be a lien on your taxes as early as April 2014? Can the IRS collect at your...
|
| 12/10/2013 - One of the predictable effects of Obamacare's intention to add tens of millions of new patients to the nation's healthcare system - without adding a single new doctor or other healthcare provider - is that there simply wouldn't be enough physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners to care...
|
| 12/10/2013 - The segment of the American population most needed for Obamacare to "work," the younger generation, is the segment largely missing from its enrollment ranks, a new academic poll reveals. In a survey, researchers from Harvard University's Institute of Politics found that more than half of 18- to 29-year-olds...
|
| 12/7/2013 - Under normal circumstances, companies set to launch a major new interactive website that will offer a product or service to tens of millions of people test that site repeatedly to ensure that it functions properly.
But the federal government is not a company, so that's not what happened with Healthcare.gov.
In...
|
| 12/4/2013 - Just how many deals with the devil did American companies and businesses make in order to ensure that they came out on top when Obamacare was fully implemented?
Well, the answer is - dozens.
We already knew that the nation's premier senior citizens organization, the AARP, sold its soul - and sold...
|
| 12/3/2013 - When the "Hope and Change" parade came tearing across America with empty promises of affordable healthcare for all, millions of unwitting young people, many without health insurance, quickly jumped on the bandwagon. But now, many of these same individuals, including 28-year-old Katy Irwin, a freelance...
|
| 12/3/2013 - Regular readers of Natural News know that we have been frequent critics of Obamacare, because the law represents the kind of top-down, one-size-fits-all, abusive, tyrannical government that strips away freedom, damages liberty and further restricts choice - all things that we despise about our post-constitutional...
|
| 12/3/2013 - Older Democratic staffers on Capitol Hill likely supported their bosses' decisions to back the president on Obamacare because they, like tens of millions of others, believed all of Obama's BS promises about the law.
Well, they too are finding out, like the rest of us, that what was promised and what...
|
| 12/2/2013 - In the mid-1980s, at the Cold War's climax, President Ronald Reagan, in a speech, implored Soviet Premier Gorbachev to "tear down this wall." He was talking about the Berlin Wall, which divided Germany into the communist East and democratic West, and he was appealing to Gorbechev to give his people...
|
| 11/28/2013 - She went from the administration's hero to zero with the click of a mouse.
Once touted by the White House as an Obamacare success story, Jessica Sanford has now discovered that, no, she won't be able to afford new health insurance coverage, thanks to the very law that President Obama said would make...
|
| 11/26/2013 - Despite the fact that the government spent hundreds of millions of dollars on the federal Obamacare online exchange, Healthcare.gov is not only glitch- and crash-prone, it's ripe for identity theft by hackers.
A panel of IT experts testified recently before a House committee to inform Americans that...
|
| 11/26/2013 - Technology is a double-edged sword. You've read those words by me before.
On the one hand, technology has improved our lives tremendously. On the other, it is being used to do end runs around the Constitution and steal our privacy in ways our founders never imagined.
Obamacare is just another...
|
| 11/24/2013 - New outrages regarding Obamacare surface nearly every day now, so it should not be surprising to learn this: The Obama administration spent a whole lot more to roll out the disastrous law than just a few hundred million on a failed website that is still under construction.
Billions more, in fact.
According...
|
| 11/24/2013 - "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan."
Most Americans believed President Obama when he repeatedly made this promise over and over again over the course of two years, prior to the passage of the Affordable Care Act in 2010.
Now, of course, we know this was a lie, as millions of Americans...
|
| 11/20/2013 - The world of politics is nothing if not cynical and hypocritical. One-time allies can turn on you in an instant, if the polling data says it's a good idea to turn. Alliances are a mile wide and an inch deep. And so it is with the Democrats who voted for Obamacare and are now scrambling for an escape...
