This is a true story about Obama care.

My story: I filled out the forms (on their broken website) in October of last year, and i'm still uninsured. I just got a stupid letter saying to wait for their decision. April comes along and the signup deadline expires. I get a letter which is just a piece of paper saying to bring it if i need to go to the ER and i'm provisionally covered by it; "were still making our decision." June comes and that letter expires. I guess i'm out of luck? Via official health connector FB: the only way to get insured is to send a very angry letter to my senator. I don't make very much money, and would probably fall under free medicaid. I've never had insurance because i'm young and healthy, and it would be too expensive. The only one who sees a doctor is my dog which i pay out of pocket.

Example B: I know this relative first hand, who doesn't work and makes money by selling drugs. He doesn't pay any taxes, and "officially" makes no income. He collected unemployment because he CHOSE not to work for 6 months prior. He got signed up for free healthcare in the winter of 2013. I wish i wasn't related to this person but this is first hand and true. How many drug dealers have free healthcare?

And people say Obama care is working? I wish it was!
