I am now officially an Obamacare Outlaw – the deadline for sending in my “shared responsibility” penalty/tax whatever-it-is having come – and gone. Without my having sent them a burnished penny of the $695 they claim I “owe.”

Readers will recall that about three weeks ago, I received a thuggy letter from the Luca Brasi division of the government, which has become the collection agency for the health insurance mafia. The mafia succeeding in getting Obamacare passed into law – and don’t be deceived that it was Obama or the Democrats or even the Republicans who did it, though they played their necessary puppet parts. The power behind them is the insurance mafia, which saw the goldmine and determined to mine it – using the power of the government to dig out the gold at gunpoint.

Of course, the government wets its beak, too.

It gets power – over everything it hasn’t already got power over since literally everything imaginable can be claimed to “affect” health care and now that our health is no longer our business but the business of the government, everything we do (and don’t do) at least in principle now falls under the purview of the government.

Obamacare will be used to implement – just for starters – backdoor/extra-legal gun control via “health based” rulings on who may – and may not – own a gun.

For example, the recalcitrant patient – or the refusnik patient, such a myself. Declining to obtain health insurance will be punished in more than just one way. Those who do not “sign up” will likely be characterized as mentally troubled – and “we” (it is always “we” when in fact it is really they) can’t have the mentally troubled running around (or even staying home) with loaded guns on their person.

That kind of thing. Expect it, count on it.

And, don’t be tricked by the black face that has been put on Obamacare – a divide and conquer trick deliberately used to divert attention from the bipartisan decimation of our liberty to not be mugged by the insurance mafia via the joint efforts of Republicans and Democrats in the service of themselves and the mafia.

Never forget that the first arising of Obamacare – the prototype – was the work of the ultra-white Mitt Romney in Massachusetts and the deciding vote enshrining Obamacare nationally was the work of another white man, Justice John “we have the negatives” Roberts.

They – the mafia – and also the Republicans hope you’ll be stupid enough to blame your being in thrall to the mafia (and the government) on the black guy, i.e., Obama. But he was just the front man. It’s the men behind him that were decisive – and almost all of them were white.

Anyhow, I elected to say No to their order to send the insurance mafia outrageous sums of money to be “covered” – to buy a health insurance policy I do not feel the need for, primarily because I am healthy and don’t feel the need to pay for services I don’t use but secondarily because – thanks to the mafia’s profit lust – I am now expected (required) to buy “coverage” I absolutely, objectively have no need of and never will.

Such as maternity care, for instance.

I am a divorced, middle-aged guy. I doubt I will be having a baby anytime soon.

And “substance abuse counseling.” It is “covered,” but I neither smoke nor drink alcohol at all. Not because I am opposed. I just don’t. I might need “counseling” for my coffee addiction – but that is not “covered.”

The point is Obamacare not only forces me to buy “coverage,” it forces me to buy “coverage” for things that are irrelevant to me as an individual. It is as grotesque and stupid – and evil – as forcing me to buy flood insurance (my place being located on the spine of the Blue Ridge Mountains, at 3,200 feet; if the flood ever comes, we’ll all need an Ark).

I might, on my own, have bought a high-deductible catastrophic care policy – which would make some degree of sense for a man in my situation. Actual, you know, insurance. To cover an unpredictable, extremely unlikely and catastrophic event. The likelihood being the insurer would probably never have to pay out. Which would mean a cheap policy for me. But that would mean less profit for the insurance company – wherein lies the problem as they see it.

Obamacare is unaffordable because it “covers” everything you don’t need – and because it is used to “cover” entirely predictable, routine occurrences such as physical exams and allergy shots. It is exactly like using a car insurance policy to pay for tire rotations and oil changes – which would also swell in cost to absurd proportions if car insurance “covered” such things.

And, on the macro level, Obamacare is simply wealth redistribution. I am (and you are) to be mulcted for the sake of other people’s “care” – particularly, the “care” of the irresponsible – with a hefty profit percentage for the mafia on each transaction. Hence the verbiage about “shared responsibility.” It is not sufficient that I am responsible for myself. I must be responsible for others, too.

Obamacare

I used to work with a guy that I saw at local Wal Mart last year. He told me if he didn't quit his job, he could not get his meds. That was because of Obamacare. ;)

I took my dog to the vet for an ear infection that had come back after a couple of years. I told the doctor, "Those ear drops you gave him last time worked great." He said he didn't carry that medicine any more, because it's used for humans too, and due to Obamacare the price had increased from $50 to $5000!

My family's medical insurance premium went from $600/month to over $3000/month, so we had to drop it. No insurance at all now. Feels great!

But I don't call it Obamacare any longer. I call it Republicare now, because the Republicons could have and should have repealed it long ago, as they laughingly promised to do.

No doubt that the health insurance lobbyists got more than they needed or deserved, but the hook that allowed them extra leverage in "negotiations" with lawmakers was the fact that they were going to be required to provide coverage for people with pre-existing conditions. This is what made it essential that it become law that everyone had to have insurance, whether purchased, subsidized or paid for by the state. Otherwise, it would make no sense for anyone to buy insurance if they could wait to buy it until they got sick and needed it and an insurance company would be required to sell it to them on that day. Insurance companies would be collecting premiums ONLY from people who were already sick. (When they got well they would cancel and wait to sign up again the next time they needed coverage.)

Pretty much. Except that unless you have a "qualifying life change" -- and the government gets to determine the qualification criteria, naturally -- you have to wait until the next open enrollment period to sign up, and the delay before coverage begins could be as long as one year after you got sick.
