Featured in this week’s curated (by The Market Institute) snapshot of Twitter:

“Insurance Company Bailouts, Fewer Jobs, Loss of Doctors: ObamaCare is not affordable”, via Senator Rand Paul, Guy Benson, U.S. Department of Labor, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, Doctor Kris Held, Senator Marco Rubio, Heritage Foundation, House Oversight Committee, and Representative Fred Upton.

Twitter:

By every measure—jobs, quality healthcare, the financial burden—#Obamacare has not been ‘affordable’: http://t.co/jyvnVmFGFr

— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) February 7, 2014

In response:

@SenRandPaul So health care was affordable before? To who exactly? The healthy? Ridiculous argument.

Health insurer: We’re going to need a ~$350 million taxpayer ‘bailout’ in 2014 because of Obamacare losses. http://t.co/Qj3YWBlinc

— Guy Benson (@guypbenson) February 7, 2014

In response:

@guypbenson No bailout They got in bed with Democrats to pass this corrupt bill They can pay the price Not us

Instead of slashing workers’ hours under ObamaCare and reducing take home pay, let’s put money back in families’ pockets.

— Eric Cantor (@GOPLeader) February 6, 2014

In response:

@GOPLeader ACA doesn’t SLASH workers’ hours; WORKERS’ elect to supply less labor. READ the CBO report

‘Phantom Networks’ of Unavailable Doctors Plague Obamacare http://t.co/wtIglS73Cu
Sadly, reality becomes real.

— Kris Held,MD (@kksheld) February 5, 2014

In response:

@kksheld Even worse than the loss of available doctors will be the fix: Requiring all doctors to take all #Obamacare patients all the time.

— Ranjoesta (@ranjoesta) February 5, 2014

@kksheld @AAPSonline Be careful. The administration will create a new crisis and try to force docs to take all insurers, or lose license.

— Dr Steven Horvitz (@IMWHorvitz) February 5, 2014


Testified today about need to prevent #obamacare #bailout http://t.co/ARF0iyIPSm

— Marco Rubio (@marcorubio) February 5, 2014

@Heritage You idiots are JUST figuring this out? Really? It’s only going to get worse. You didn’t have to be Einstein to see this coming!

— Kevin Robertson (@KevinSSGKRob) February 5, 2014

@Heritage This is the plan of the far left all along. Don’t look so stunned at the “explosive” report.
