As the debate rages over who benefits from the Affordable Care Act, one thing is becoming clear: The controversial program is a dream come true for rip-off artists.


Yes Obama and the Democrats who passed this are quite happy with it.


Consumer experts warn that the program has created a huge opportunity for swindling people by stealing their money and their sensitive personal information.


Yep the government sure does get to swindle more money from the middle class under the false pretense of they 'care'.

Oh they meant other con artist's.


"Any time you roll out a big government program like this, confusion is inevitable," said Lois Greisman, an associate director in the Bureau of Consumer Protection at the Federal Trade Commission. "This confusion creates a tremendous opportunity for the fraudster."


Obama created the Consumer 'protection' Bureau too courtsey of Frank.Dodd Act of 2010.

Obamacare con artist's

Well considering Obama care was brought to us courtsey of con artists to begin with seems only natural other con artists would join in on the con.

Related to this thread to see just how much risk you are:


This spring, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee lawyers were also told by HHS that, despite the fact that navigators will have access to sensitive data such as Social Security numbers and tax returns, there will be no criminal background checks required for them. Indeed, they won’t even have to have high-school diplomas. Both U.S. Census Bureau and IRS employees must meet those minimum standards, if only because no one wants someone who has been convicted of identity theft getting near Americans’ personal records. But HHS is unconcerned.


Look ma No background checks !

If this is the sum of what 'good' government is I hate to see what 'bad' government is.

Bunch of dirty rotten scoundrels the entire lot of them from Capitol Hill down to your soon to be 'healthcare' provider.

From the get go Obamacare has been a con quite the shame so many people even after everything that has come to light still think he 'cares'.

I wonder how much identity theft will be coming down the road.

Ms. Greisman has obviously polished her pearls of wisdom !!

I am breath-taken.

Now I want to hear from her about what steps they have taken to prevent this fraud.

I won't hold my breath

Well of course we need to provide employment opportunities to those 11 million new citizens they're trying to cram down our throats.

Every single Congressman/women who voted yes to this "we must pass it to read it" fiasco should be ridden out of town on a rail and then tarred and feathered.

I would say the [con]gress allow the insurance companies to be con artists no?

Its congress that passes the bills that protect and create monopolies in the health industry and we all know what monopolies do, Hint hint, jack up prices, reduce competition, and later bring about shortages.

This is all no brainer stuff yet people have a hard time understanding that government is the Ultimate monopoly. One that you can never escape under threat of penalty and jail time.

The President of the United States has mentioned on more than one occasion that insurance companies are our friends.

And that we should rely on their judgement as well as his.

It was a nice scam considering private healthcare WAS paying for all medical expense cheaper than what Obama care has brought forth.

Who cares thought right ?

Now people are forced to buy a corporate product ! !

Ain't that great ?

again, who protects big business with loop holes and tax havens via law? Government. And if by chance these “loop holes” were made by accident, and I doubt that, government sure has a hard time closing them. Who protects big business the most? GOVERNMENT.

Who bails out TO BIG TO FAIL? Government! Government is for big business.

Thanks Obama!

But the PPACA demands that insurance companies spend 80% of premiums on healthcare expenditures.

It's the law, and they MUST refund the extra money back to the people.

How will they ever to be able to continue the Lobby ?

These companies get what they pay for. Yes they are the blame for the laws and loop holes but the government isn't running their companies for them are they? These companies are the ones ripping off the public they are the blame.

This is why lobbying in DC should be banned.
