Loco No cell phones or cable TV for Mexicans. Obama said (paraphrasing), "If you can't afford Obamacare, then give up your cable TV or your phone." It happened on Spanish-language media. It was Thursday. Obama was at the Newseum, and he participated in a town hall focusing on the importance of Latinos capitalizing on the benefits of Obamacare. It was hosted by a partnership of people, Hispanic-oriented media types. Now, during the Q&A, the moderator said, "This question comes from a man who says he wanted Obamacare for a family of three. He says he makes $36,000 a year. The minimum he could find, the minimum premium is $316 a month. He says, 'I think that's too much. I can't afford that on $36,000.' Now, Mr. President, a lot has been said about the costs and families that live paycheck to paycheck, $316 a month for health care, that might be a lot. What would you say to that man?" OBAMA: I guess what I would say is, if you looked at that person's budget, and you looked at their cable bill, their telephone, their cell phone bill, it may turn out that it's just they haven't prioritized health care because right now everybody's healthy. Nobody actually wants to spend money on health insurance until they get sick.
