Good, being 'forced to pay private companies or suffer a penalty is complete bullshit.

Are you suggesting paying billions in profit to a middle man that contributes nothing to medical advancements, patients, doctors, or health care in general is a bad idea?

What sucks about the health care law... it satisfied nobody at all. Progressives want true single-payer, but this version was just a total bastardization. Really I don't think there's going to be anyone that upset if it's struck down. We need to try again when we have a president with balls.

What don't you people understand? Healthcare is not one of the enumerated powers of the federal government.

I'd much rather have ALL under state healthcare than having to keep wasting money on senior citizens with no positive yields.

It's okay. We haven't crashed yet. I think we are over the mountains and it could be a sweet Donner Party story.
Or maybe that soccer team crash, but I don't remember.

> 12000/year
Jeebus. I have kickass health/dental insurance through Pres for ~275/month. Prescription plan, 20 dollar copay for doctor visits, and I forget what my deductible for bigger things is, but I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled a week from Monday and I have to go under general anesthesia. I'll look it up, but everything is pretty cheap, plus I just picked up 2 new clients that need quite a lot of shit done.
