A recent Health Situation………..

“They say this country (the United States) is divided. I’m sure it is. It was pointed out to me at one time that it’s easier to understand the division of this country if you look at it like a map of 11 countries that make up the whole. This idea is laid out in a book by Colin Woodward.

Personally, nothing perplexes me more about the division of states than when it comes to the discussion of Health Care. Insanity, hypocrisy, and “gas-lighting” reign.

KYNECT is OBAMACARE!!

There, I said it; and it’s not even my quote to throw out there.

From a Time Magazine article about one of the most successful Health Care programs, with the highest enrollment;

Kentucky had been deliberate in trying to hide Obamacare’s role in its coverage expansion. The state built a marketplace called Kynect where consumers could shop for the law’s private plans, in part to obscure the fact that it had anything to do with the unpopular federal law.

“We wanted to get as far away from the word Obamacare as we could,” Steve Beshear, the former Kentucky governor who oversaw the effort, says. “Polls at the time in Kentucky showed that Obamacare was disapproved of by maybe 60 percent of the people.”

Yet, Kentucky’s two Republican U.S Senators spent years trying to repeal the Avoidable Care Act they branded as “blatant socialism.”

Surprise! KYNECT is OBAMACARE!!

A few years back, another Republican Senator was very busy trying to distance himself from Obamacare on the campaign trail while running for President of the United States. His name was Mitt Romney. There was only one problem as Wiki points out; Obamacare was based on Rommneycare!

What is the history of Romneycare?

The Massachusetts health care reform, commonly referred to as Romneycare, was a healthcare reform law passed in 2006 and signed into law by Governor Mitt Romney with the aim of providing health insurance to nearly all of the residents of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Surprise; Romneycare IS Obamacare!

I feel like I should be yelling out the final line from the 1973 movie Soylent Green, but I never actually saw it, but loved the recap from my good friend “Comrade Baris.”

Upon learning the dreaded detail that the food source saving the starving population, the main character yells out the brutal truth; “It’s people! Soylent Green is made out of people.“

Who ever came up with the expression that “The Truth Hurts,” was a very wise person.
