There is the bait, the Obamacare individual parts and the switch, foisting the payment into the future and your children. It is like going to the car dealership and getting your hearts desire and not asking about payments and signing your children\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s name to the contract.<\/p>\n<p>Just another example of the collusion between the President and the media.
