Of course he had to force it. Would you buy health insurance if you were told up front that your premiums were going to line the pockets of the carriers CEO and shareholders? And anything left over would go to pay the bills of people sicker than you? And they would have to be... four figure deductibles and/or penalties for non-compliance would ensure a steady flow of cash into insurance carrier coffers. I get that Americans need to be forced towards UHC. Not that UHC in itself is such a bad thing. AMERICAN UHC is a bad thing. What we have in America is a PROXY PAYER health system. Costs are so extravagant that even a tooth cleaning costs more than the average workers weekly disposable income. So an "insurance" carrier pools cash resources and pays health providers on your behalf. Building in profit for themselves in the transactions. A Ponzi scheme. If healthy 20 somethings are NEEDED to pay into the system in order for it to survive then it cannot survive long term because healthy 20 somethings ARE STILL ON THEIR PARENTS COVERAGE! Obama didn't want this. This isn't how UHC is done anywhere else on the planet. But its how it had to be done here because EVERYWHERE else that you have UHC, you have TAXES to pay for it!!! You can't have TAXES in America so we have PREMIUMS. And like a casino, the house always wins. You must pay more in premiums than you receive in claims. That is the premise of the proxy payer system. That's mostly impossible in the modern age of 7, 8, and 9 figure health bills. Just saying.

95$ is what my dentist charges for prophylaxis. Btw, the average worker only has to have this done twice a year.
Lying or grossly over exaggerating is not a good way to convince people of your point and this is the kind of garbage we have been hearing about from the beginning.
she is the poster child of all the jerks that thought he was worth a flip
I never have been impressed with him except when he made his speech at the democrat convention way back when
then I watched him when he first ran in 08
and he has been worse that I ever thought!!
I personally think it will end up being the democrats that throw him under the bus before his term runs out!!
Sad that she wanted him to be so good but could not see the man had no credentials or experience.
She's been around long enough where she should not have been blinded to reality from the beginning.
Walters is also having some show where she includes Miley Cyrus as one of the most fascinating people ever. I think Walters has lost the functioning portions of her brain or something.

The prophets foretold the coming of the Messiah Obama. They said the Messiah would be a Kool smoking member of the Church of F--k Whitey and that he would be deciding the pay of the local dog catcher.
I can understand how people in desperate situations put too much trust in other people who tell them they can give them what they need. Others with hatred or jealousy toward others who have more than them are also easily manipulated if someone promises to take some from those people. Obama used the emotion of both types of people.
It is easy to play on peoples emotions but people make the worst decisions when making those choices with emotion.
Considering the domination of our politics and culture by the selectively socialist business elites I had hoped President Obama would be a Recreation of Teddy Roosevelt and bust a few of the monopolies cheating all the rest of us.
Unfortunately he has ben just a much a part of the problem as all the rest. Remember the "Golden Rule". THOSE WITH THE GOLD MAKE THE RULES. Those rules make certain they keep the gold they have stolen.
