You couldn't explain or answer the question because you made that shit up in the first place.
After you make up a bunch of bullshit, you compound your transgression by citing attributes you know nothing about, that come from a deity you know nothing about and then claim he belongs to someone your ass-up-in-the-air self knows intimately.
What a douche-bag.

So I can quote your plan for the uninsured and under-insured as, "Don't get sick!" Just what I said: no fucking plan! And I have no idea what you're talking about about swapping houses with someone.

If you want lower health costs, you have to solve the problem. Or you can simply blame American companies for the problem, if that makes you feel better.

I take it you seldom travel internationally.
I, or members of my family, have reviewed free health care in Great Britain, Canada, and Italy. We received almost free health care in France (they hospital collected from our group carrier, but nothing directly from us). So you're wrong. Our citizens receive free care elsewhere.
Likewise, the ACA changes nothing about our health care policies toward undocumented workers. They can't buy health insurance through the exchanges even if they pay full price (which is asinine). A weak attempt to deflect.
So the Republican answer is still, "Don't get sick" (and especially don't be born in Mexico)!

That fact that you wrote this shows that you are misinformed. The GOP forwarded many suggestions to help a market based solution provide healthcare.
Portable Accounts
Insurance across state lines
A subsidized pool for pre-existing conditions
tax credit for HSAs
just to name a few
Ask yourself, if Obama really wanted to help the uninsured then why did he not even consider these ideas. Any rational person has to come to the conclusion that Obama has something other in mind that affordable coverage. In fact, if you back to the beginning it was not about price, it was about coverage. If Obama wanted this to work, why did he give out over 2500 exemptions to unions, companies, and friends?

Did you travel to those countries for the expressed purpose of recieving healthcare???? NO! Then you're talking about something else and have nothing more to add.

Only been to Arkansas once. I visited the Clinton commemorative library and massage parlor. You get a table shower right on the Oval Office desk. I really liked the dancing Monicas.

None of those things make insurance affordable to people making minimum wage or near minimum wage. I'm nor sure all of those combined would add 1 million people.
My insurance for my employees costs around $900/Mo. There is no way to make anything approaching even half of that affordable for lower level hourly employees without substantial direct subsidies. And those are most of the un and under-insureds right there.

Again, the people I work with in Europe with "free" healthcare buy (and pay for) supplemental health insurance. The "free" healthcare is great if you break an arm, not so great if you need treatment for cancer.
I would contend that your treatment wasn't "free", you just had no out-of-pocket cost. The good people of France and your healthcare insurer picked up the tab. Remember the heat wave in 2003 in France that killed thousands?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003_European_heat_wave
The catastrophe occurred in August, a month in which many people, including government ministers and physicians, are on holiday. Many bodies were not claimed for many weeks because relatives were on holiday. A refrigerated warehouse outside Paris was used by undertakers as they did not have enough space in their own facilities. On September 3, 2003, fifty-seven bodies still left unclaimed in the Paris area were buried.

Every time I get a headache and need an aspirin. Geezzz.
You are a friggin' walkin' encyclopedia just from your own personal experiences.... anecdotal as they may be.
The alleged 50 million UNINSURED are allegedly unable or unwilling to get insurance AND are not considered "employed" where insurance is offered by the employer. Actually, when the illegal aliens are taken out, along with those who it turns out CAN AFFORD insurance BUT ELECT not to get any, the ESTIMATE falls to around 15 million .. various organizations and the CBO went through that number crunching about 3 years ago ... did you think EVERYONE ELSE had forgotten about it ...or did you not get that memo?
I hadn't gotten this straight ...
.... are you saying you are getting subsidies to help with your companies' (2 of them) premium costs?

I think there is a bit of truth to your statement. Actually I think behind closed doors they( both sides) know what best for our economy is to keep them illegal, but not enforce the immigration laws so they keep working cheap and there is no shortage of cheap labor. Kinda shitty either way.

Raising the wages of the low- and under-skilled worker would help make it more affordable; which begs the question...
Why do Democrats drive down the wages of working Americans by demanding more immigration, amnesty for illegals, and no enforcement of existing immigration laws ?
