Learn.. Customer has choice is good. Mandate that you have to buy is bad.
Not according to Republican nominee for President, Mitt Romney...
"Our experience also demonstrates that getting every citizen insured doesn't have to break the bank. First, we established incentives for those who were uninsured to buy insurance. Using tax penalties, as we did, or tax credits, as others have proposed, encourages "free riders" to take responsibility for themselves rather than pass their medical costs on to others."
- Mitt Romney, July 30, 2009 (Op-ed, USA Today)
Dude, the bill was written by and for insurance companies and major pharmacudical companies. Of course they want to see it stay in place. They have been able to justify raising rates with impunity.
Now, how about finding out what doctors, hospitals and other health care providers have to say about it?
That isn't true.
The Affordable health care act was designed to make sure that the problem's of Insurance companies accepting people with pre conditions and keeping children on parent's policies and doing away with the cap on work created insurance was at a minimum and by getting millions of more premium payers it would stop the insurance companies not wanting obamacare. The Insurance companies have been saying how bad obamacare is going to be for everyone and have been allied with Doctors talking b/s about hoe premiums will rise dramatically. Now the Insurance companies realize that Obamacare might be repealed they have suddenly realized that they have shot themselves in the foot if it is overturned.
Doctors and Hospitals are only afraid that if Obamacare gets moving forward a UHC will be next. Doctors and Hospitals will still get the same payments from Insurance companies as before Obamacare. The Doctors also do not realize that they will have many extra patients with insurance so they can continue to rip off the insurance companies. As far as the pharmaceutical companies.... President Obama has made them now charge less for their drugs so the cost of prescriptions should come down.
If Romney repeals Obamacare...... Premiums will go sky high as the Insurance companies will now want the extra earnings they will lose by losing Obamacare.......... They are greedy and will see this money as a loss even though they had never earned it in the first place
The ONLY way to get a proper affordable health care system that is controlled by the health professionals is by implementing a Govt. funded health system as has been adopted everywhere else at a lower GDP than our health system here and NOT under the control of CEO's.

The health insurance companies absolutely did write the bill, all those things that they are now forced to cover is going to get subsidized by the government, while they get millions more new clients most of which are healthy, resulting in huge net gains in income for these companies.
I have worked for an insurance company and I have worked in healthcare. Do you want me to tell you which one is the least concerned about your health and only about making money?
