I'll give you an Obamacare (ACA) success story for you... ME
Now mind you, I think the ACA is a fucking joke, and not everyone can legally fuck the system like I do, but I'm unique. The facts are that most people have seen astronomical rate increases since the ACA went into effect. My rates would have gone up too, if not for a part of the law that requires rate caps in states where there's only ONE provider on the marketplace. It's a fucking joke.
Here's how I win at Obamacare:
I own my own business, a corporation, and all my bills are paid by the corporation (PRE TAX). Therefore I only pay taxes on what I have left over each year, which is generally zilch because I make sure to spend it all. So I don't pay any corporate tax, and I pay VERY little personal income tax.
In my state there is no medicare coverage for people who don't meet the minimum income to qualify for ACA subsidies, so I have to show a minimum of $16K personal income for my household.
Doing this allows me the MAXIMUM Obamacare credit of $550/month, leaving me a lousy $38/month to pay for my wife and myself healthcare coverage. YOU chumps, the tax payers, pickup the tab.
The measly $2K I pay in income taxes on the $16K I show in income is far offset by the $6,600 I make in ACA subsidies... and it's all PERFECTLY legal. It's immoral as shit, but it's legal.
This is why the ACA is a fucking joke, it needs to be replaced... and I say that in full knowledge that replacing it would likely fuck me over bigtime, but it's the right thing to do.
Oh yeah, I'm on foodstamps too because the government doesn't count me as making enough money because of my tax return... I'm such an evil corporation.
