Health Insurance Brokers Prepare Clients For Obamacare Sticker Shock - Forbes

And shoot, there will be no one to blame on the ballot in 2014 or 2016 but democrats up for relection in Congress and the next dem candidate for Pres. I wouldnt' confuse Obama's two term success with a permanent democratic advantage just yet. Obama's chickens are still coming home to roost.

Current doctors will take early retirement or move to a more lucrative country to provide medical care to the "elite" who can pay cash.

New doctors will have to settle for a used Lexus and a townhouse instead of a new Mercedes and a McMansion. They will go to a cheaper Med School because attending an elite school will be a waste of money if they cannot make enough to repay the loans.

ObamaCare was titled the Affordable Care Act. As we can see, there is nothing affordable about it and our healthcare will actually get worse.

The whole thing, along with this President, is a sham.

My doctor moved to the USA from Canada 20 years ago. He will retire at the end of this year due to Obama-care. A very nice and very qualified doctor. It is sad to see a person that worked so hard to become a doctor being forced out of his profession.

the fact that our healthcare is bad and getting worse was a foregone conclusion prior to obamacare's existence.

OR, they refuse to accept insurance, or require you to pay cash up front, and you can file for re-imbursement with your insurance, an you collect whatever they pay.

Remember, Doctors do NOT have to accept insurance.

Would have continued under Romney. Both Republicans and Democrats should blame themselves for following an insane system without question.
