    That's 10 times more than originally estimated.

    And just think, Obama has personally postponed/delayed over 30 key provisions of ObamaCare and those key provisions are the most destructive.

    So, when those provisions do get implemented, the official nightmare will begin.

    ObamaCare needs to repealed immediately!

    Guess we should have gone with universal single payer coverage. Unless republicans have a better idea.

    I still haven't heard one convincing argument as to why anyone would want their tax collector is in charge of my health insurance.

    Exactly! Could the government competently do something as simple as creating a website for the Federal health exchanges? No. Why would you want to give the government even more control.

    Yep.

    Because it's a lot cheaper. The proof is obvious worldwide. If every other civilized country can make it work, so can we.

    Because it's cheaper, more efficient and covers everyone.

    And it does it poorly with worse results. Free healthcare isn't worth a damn if you are too dead to enjoy it.

    Because they don't trust the insurance companies who literally pay people to find any possible way they can deny coverage for them maybe?

    Rep's had a better idea, not passing the ACA. Now, because of liberal lies and shenanigans, we have the ACA and they're blaming for Rep's for not improving a mess they created!
    How about this, liberals, demand the president lead the way on fixing the mess instead of telling us how he'll veto any ACA changes Rep's send him. Wouldn't that be a tad more honest?

    Considering they have jobs it's unlikely they qualify for govt health care (Medicaid/Medicare)

    Those delaying actions were put in place so he can blame the next president, or congress when the predictable results are realized.

    No feel free to include those. Show me numbers that show people on medicare are more likely to die of cancer, stroke, heart attacks or anything at all.

    There is no such thing as free health care. Everyone knows that, at least I thought you did.

    Free market healthcare isn't worth a damn if you can't afford it, or go bankrupt because of it and die anyway.

    Not passing ACA doesn't solve the problem of too many people uninsured and in particular it doesn't solve the problem of preexisting conditions being completely uninsurable.

    Try again. Inaction is not an option. People are dying because of this issue.

    Nor is it worth a damn if you have to go around the "free" HC system and pay cash out of pocket to obtain care in a timely and effective manner.

    The bleating of the Babeuvian Illiterati is playing precisely to script. The solution to "fixing" the problems created by more government control is more government control.

    Isn't that exactly what the right expects people without insurance to do?

    Really? No one in other countries want to be doctors? Are they poorly paid?

    The best want to come to America , this is from my personal experience at my University. They leave the poor countries behind, try and go back for charity (*)(*)(*)(*) but no career to be had.

    It's what people who pay for their HC out of pocket have always done, but up until now they haven't had to suffer the government robbing them of control over their own personal priorities and HC decisions, and paying for a massive new government cluster-foxtrot and its coercive/punitive mandates.
