I was standing in line at pharmacy yesterday and an old lady was talking to the pharmacy and she was asking the pharmacist if Obamacare was going to effect her medicare and her elderly daughters medicaid ? and the pharmacist responded "Oh you betcha it is " . Medicare and Medicaid will be cut and where those cuts will be is anyones guess " . Now Im worried for all the seniors and dissabled people . i am a dissabled person through no fault of my own mind you . It was a horrible accident and I dont care to talk about it at all so before everyone starts jumping on me saying Im a bum and other nasty names I have been called because of being on medicaid and medicaid workers are infamous for calling people deadbeats .Yes I had worked since I was 16 yrs of age until about two years ago .Ah the looks I get in the pharmacy when I say they are covered by medicaid . Well anyways now im scared about how long I will have medicaid , or how much they will cover , they dont cover much now as it is . So if any one of you has any real advice about obama care and what it is going to do please comment .
The Affordable Care Act expands Medicaid coverage to millions of low-income Americans and makes numerous improvements to both Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). So that pharmacist is a political hack just spewing nonsense to foster fear, uncertainty and doubt among seniors, probably because he thinks it'll help his own account balance.

I think you'll keep your coverage, but
your coverage may not be what it has been previously.
Here are some links to research. It is true however that almost no one, individuals or business owners, are really sure of what is coming down the pike as far as this confusing law has in store.
Yes we all have links explaining clearly how ACA will do what we say it will do, not what the other guy says it will do.
You don't like ACA. It doesn't give you what you want for yourself. Fine. Message received. Stop ignoring what it offers those less fortunate in general.
The idea that the Pharmacist is a hack is why people are so surprised when s..t happens. If you don't think you and everyone else will be affected by this ridiculous health bill - well go back to the sand where your head is.
No one said that the law won't have affect. It would be pretty stupid to pass a law that wouldn't have any affect.
A pharmacist proclaiming doom and gloom is a political hack just spewing nonsense to foster fear, uncertainty and doubt among seniors, probably because he thinks it'll help his own account balance. The reality is that ACA will have substantial positive impact on many, especially among those struggling the most. The pharmacist can choose to sip the wack-o right-wing Kool-Aid if the pharmacist chooses to, but it is shameful to spread such nonsense to seniors.

Ok. Let's see if you feel the same after a year or too. Cheers!

I agree, and people are going to get sticker shock...There is absolutely NOTHING affordable about this, and no it has NOT kicked in yet.
