Signing up folks for Obamacare

WSJ link

actually, this might be the only way to get some people to sign up, but it points out to the confusion and complicated health bill.

Ironically, there are some folks among the poor who make a good living finding out all the free stuff to get.

When one of my neighbors left her deadbeat husband a few days after she had major surgery, it was another neighbor who found her a way to get an apartment, foodstamps, money to help pay the electric/heating bill...later, the LDS helped her train and get a job as a secretary...

The first neighbor who knew all the ropes on getting money was not disabled but a widow with two small children trying to live off of her husband's pension. Ironically, her income was too high for Medicaid...

the part about health care that pays for everything is that many folks who really need care just won't keep their appointments, and that many people come in for trivial stuff like mild colds or aches and pains that middle class people treat with Over the counter medicines....

and then you have the druggies...
