Obamacare will be a tipping point in America that will shift the country back conservative. It will be a complete failure. Costs will balloon, people will remain uninsured and premiums will continue to skyrocket.
Leftists are simply not capable of thinking about alternative paths.
There are thousands of unelected bureaucrats in government agencies that rule over us.
I swear, the RW is truly amazing.
Why do you want corporations to "rule over you"? Where does such love and trust of Wall Street banks and corporate CEOs stem from?
Reaganomics dictates that by shovelling money to the wealthy they will take care of the rest of us. How do you rightists justify such nonsensical faith?

Corporations have different interests they have to compete to survive. Corporations don't rule over us our government does.

So you never heard of mergers and monopolies, and such things would never happen. Right...
No, corporations do not have to compete to survive, in fact they can improve their bottom line by merging into monopolies and cabals for the purpose of fixing prices. That's where the money is.
The last thing a corporation wants is competition.
Okay, so you don't like anti-trust and consumer protection laws, the FTC, the SEC, and all that "big government" that "oppresses" you. How would you like a single oil company supplying all our petroleum needs? Sound good?
Talk about oppression... United States antitrust law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Somehow you are "oppressed" by a regulated universal affordable health care system, and you would rather be fleeced by a corporation with a genuine "death panel" which decides if your illness cuts too far into their bottom line. Amazing.

Your right on the Death Panel part for reasons unknown Republicans wanted businesses to set up Death Panels for Ryan Care rather than have a government Death Panel. The bottom line though with Medicare reform is that way too many Republicans are on Medicare for them to actually do any meaningful reform without bipartisan cooperation.
Favoring a corporate bureaucracy over an elected government one is a fascist point of view.
You read the "Constition"? Okay, it does not mention corporations - so you are inadvertently correct there.
Do you know that it proclaims the responsibility of government to promote the "general welfare" of its citizens?
What is fascism and tell me how it relates to my point of view. If you can't then you are an unhinged liar.
It the state of Kentucky wanted to implement a single-payer system nothing prevented them from doing that. Ironically the ACA effectively killed state systems. A recent article seemed to indicate that the system in MA may not comply with the ACA. We have heard nothing but praise about their system (Romney care) and now it may not comply.
Actually the ACA has provisions that allow for states to implement innovative systems so long as they meet the same minimum standards of coverage. Vermont is still moving forward with putting together single payer through Green Mountain Care. Kentucky, or any other state could do the same if they were so inclined.

There isn't anything wrong with society collectively deciding to provide medical care to its citizens. Everyone should have to contribute.
Agreed. No one with an income gets to can't not pay into Medicare. This should be no different.
This is why the current crop of republicans is truly scraping bottom. Deny a fundamental right to millions of fellow citizens, even their own voters, so they can stick it to the uppity guy. Pathetic is too kind a word.
Healthcare is not a fundamental right....
What other crap are you going to add to the list next?

Healthcare certainly is not a fundamental right - in the psychopathic mind.
