QOTD: "The trouble with Obamacare is its enormous complexity, which very few people fully understand. Legislators and citizens alike have to stumble in the dark as Obama decides where and how and when the legislation is applied. Someone complains? He can save the day with his pen and his phone. But he only picks up for powerful interests, not the millions of individual Americans negatively affected by Obamacare. The president simply puts them on hold or hangs up altogether." --Natalie deMacedo
