POLL: Over 40% of Americans don’t know if Obamacare is still law
Regardless of what the Supreme Court decides this month as to the Constitutionality of Obamacare, UnitedHealthcare will retain the policy of allowing kids to stay on their parents’ insurance until they’re 26.
In an official statement, their president and chief executive said: “The protections we are voluntarily extending are good for people’s health, promote broader access to quality care and contribute to helping control rising health care costs.”
Whaaat? Obamacare is good for private insurers AND for patients? Wow, it’s almost like it’s a good thing for our country. Shocker.

Bush wrote a letter to “Alan Guttmacher (founder of the Guttmacher Institute) congratulating him on creation of a ‘family planning’ stamp commemorating (gasp!!) Margaret Sanger.”
