What do you mean, “people on Obamacare”? Obamacare is the Affordable Care Act…it’s not an insurance plan that people are “on”.
DP. People use the Health Insurance Marketplace to select an insurance plan. The Marketplace is part of the Affordable Care Act. The ACA included creating the Marketplace for people who don't have group health plan coverage. The law requires all plans to provide basic care and not deny for pre existing conditions.
"People on Obamacare" are the people who get health insurance from he Marketplace.
If ACA goes away, the people who use it for individual and family health insurance will lose their coverage. Before the ACA individual plans where very expensive, had limited coverage and could deny coverage for pre existing conditions. It would be a step backwards, but that's what the county voted for. Higher costs for less coverage must be okay.
Yes, I’m aware. But people who purchase coverage through the exchange are not “on Obamacare”. They are on whatever insurance plan they have purchased.
You are correct, but they have access to purchase that insurance plan with decent overage only because of the ACA/Obamacare.
I think most understand what people mean when they say "on Obamacare". Just like other brand names are used. Kleenex=facial tissue, etc.
Many people don’t even realize that the ACA and Obamacare are the same thing. These are the sorts of people who believe “Obamacare” is another term for Medicaid.
What will the Magas do when they get a letter that their Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance is being terminated on December 15, 2025? Furiously searching “Obamacare, Obama Care, Barack Care, Barack Obama Care, ObammaCarez.”

That's right. Importing food isn't at the top of list but it's significant and we certainly export it! You bet your bottom dollar that we'll be hit with retaliatory tariffs on soybeans and corn and other foodstuffs. Oh, and most of the non-food products (you know things like electronics, clothes, steel, car parts, and the like) are imported (https://www.investopedia.com/news/what-are-top-us-imports/). Heck, I'll bet most of the stuff at a Walmart is imported. The prices on all of those things will be going up, up, up.
+1 I think people have forgotten about the subsidies we had to pay farmers for the retaliatory tariffs: https://www.forbes.com/sites/stuartanderson/2020/01/21/trump-tariff-aid-to-farmers-cost-more-than-us-nuclear-forces/

Thank you for trying to explain this in simple language for the many who don't seem to understand. I hate the way "Obamacare" is used as a pejorative.
As a reminder to everyone, Republicans tried to eliminate the ACA before and nearly succeeded but for one vote from John McCain. No reasonable Republicans remain so it is very likely that the ACA and its protections will go away.

People are so uneducated about ACA / Obamacare. We are self employed making over $500k per year. The marketplace “Obamacare” took our family health insurance from $3500/month with insane copays and terrible coverage to $1500/month and amazing coverage. What did we do with that extra money? We put it back into the economy. How’s that for trickle down?
You know what we won’t be doing if our insurance triples? Spending that money on things like clothes, vacations, etc. We sure aren’t spending vacation money ($15k a year) in red states anymore. You don’t want us “mooching”? Cool, we will keep our money in the DMV.

Of course, it's okay. This country has billionaires that need tax breaks. Sorry.

What difference does it make when Trump and the GOP “fix” it? It will no longer require insurance companies to cover preexisting conditions. And it will affect all Americans. Back to the days of not being able to get health insurance.

He ran on destroying institutions so yeah, that’s a given. But he’ll probably replace them with privatized companies who hire loyalists.
This. Trump is going to redistribute taxpayer funds to his buddies. All to people loyal to him. Why do you think bezos pulled the post’s endorsement?
