\nIt\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s almost too preposterous to address, if not for the seriousness of the matter and by the way again, who is defending middleclass Arkansans\/Americans?         <\/strong><\/span><\/em>           April 29, 2013<\/p>\n

I refer to a front-page article appearing in Sunday\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s edition in the Times Record by John Lyon of the Arkansas News Bureau titled \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Health-Insurance Exchange (Obamacare) means jobs\u00e2\u20ac\u009d!  Did any seasoned Arkansans\/Americans ever think they would see the day when our once preeminent republic would be partially dependent on state\/national welfare jobs and brag about it, and to what end? For example, Obamacare adding over \u00c2\u00bc million of additional underachieving Arkansans and illegal Mexicans to the welfare rolls?  The projected number now is over 266,000.<\/p>\n

Remember Nancy Pelosi bloviating \u00e2\u20ac\u0153we will not know what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s in Obamacare until we pass it\u00e2\u20ac\u009d? Nothing has changed.   In Arkansas, Cynthia Crone, who is running the corrupt economic debacle said  \u00e2\u20ac\u0153How many certified application counselors will be involved in the process is not known\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. Same for \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Navigators & Guides\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (to be explained.) <\/p>\n

Citizens, do you begin to understand the magnitude of this Obama theft (Obamacare) and its dependency creation? Brought to us originally by gubernatorial candidate Mike Ross and now by team leader Senator Jake Files (R), and tagalongs Senator Holland, Reps. Altes, Eubanks, Malone, McGill & others, after state Chamber of Commerce CEO Randy Zook instructed the aforementioned 6 as to what their marching orders were, i.e. enacting so-called important reforms to the Medicaid system\u00e2\u20ac\u201dObamacare,  eliminating costly taxes. Can Zook be that stupid or just another lie? Later, Zook congratulated the 6 for their votes to enact Obamacare.  Recall that Randy Zook is the grand wizard that promotes cheap labor, open borders, tort reform (legislators set awards instead of juries), and taxpayer subsidized health insurance.   Examples of corporate welfare. The above mentioned 6, with the aid of other elected, unconstitutional midgets, put the cost of Arkansas\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 welfare healthcare squarely on the backs of the middleclass, while hundreds of corporations have received permission to opt out of Obamacare. <\/p>\n

In a nutshell here are the beginnings of the Arkansas state health insurance exchanges.  There are 4 entry level categories that must be discharged before any form of implementation can begin. $$$$$$$$<\/p>\n

1.    Navigators\u00e2\u20ac\u201dwill educate and assist consumers.
\n2.    Guides\u00e2\u20ac\u201dduplication of navigators\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6will work with governmental & nongovernmental entities.
\n3.    Certified Counselors\u00e2\u20ac\u201dperform same functions as first 2.
\n4.    Agents, Brokers\u00e2\u20ac\u201dfavored insurance companies get all the non-governmental business.<\/p>\n

What is the cost of the above\u00e2\u20ac\u201doh yes, we won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know until enacted\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6and that is just the tip. If \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcArkansas Obamacare requires Navigators, Guides, Certified Counselors, Agents & Brokers just to introduce this monstrosity, any fool can quickly see Obamacare is a nation killer. <\/p>\n

Now comes the most bombastic statement of all. Citizens can always count on State insurance Commissioner Jay Bradford, (the uber in the taxpayer trough) who stated \u00e2\u20ac\u0153hiring people to help Arkansans enroll in the exchange, it is not creating a new bureaucracy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  Say again, Commish?  Bradford continues by stating \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to be privatized\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s see if I understand\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6the Feds ($17 TRILLION in debt) are allegedly paying Arkansas to administer the grand theft which will ultimately diminish the quality & quantity of healthcare in Arkansas for all, but they are going to let private enterprise administer it?  Sure they are. Government does not relinquish power, ever. The Fed is allegedly paying for the first 3 years, who pays after that?  Welfare numbers are not static. <\/p>\n

We can thank the aforementioned six for their desertion of the middleclass and for betraying their campaign promises of smaller government, reduced taxation and individual initiatives. One final note, to underscore, there has been no citizen uprising demanding membership in the state exchange. State Rep. Bruce Westerman (R-Hot Springs) who was against the exchange corruption stated, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153My understanding is they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll more or less go door to door and sign people up\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. This of course smells precisely like former Gov. Huckabee\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Arkids First giveaway.  Use primetime taxpayer subsidized advertising to beg people to join. <\/p>\n

Who represents the middleclass\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6no one.  Are these Republicans \u00e2\u20ac\u0153public servants\u00e2\u20ac\u009d or self-servants?<\/p>\n
