    Well my suggestion would be to copy the German healthcare system, its a hybrid system of universal healthcare and private insurance, their outocomes are slightly better then the Us system, but at about half the price.

    Obamacare is just an extension of the failed all free market health care system that has no succeeded anywhere in the world. There must be a reason for that, namely once you are sick , you are in a bad place to bargain.

    Right and how much are you going to raise the rates on the rest of us since we have 47% of the nation not paying taxes and the Left wants to add 11 million more new citizens, which I am sure at least half of them won't pay any either. Who is going to pay for everyone?

    "Who is going to pay for everyone?" Um . . . those EVIL White Republicans? Just saying that they should be good for something in the eyes of these nation-hating Marxist liberals, and so perhaps paying for Marxism is their purpose in existence. That's just a guess, though, based on how our leftwingers seem to think about things.

    I'm sure Germany doesn't have half their population paying no taxes and heaven for bid if we lower the standards so Liberals have to pay some.

    Still will cost a cool 200b a year, and the extra premiums and costs for those taxes passed on to consumers.

    We trounce Germany in every category of medical care without exception despite a larger population that is spread out, diverse, poorer and less educated on average. What are you referring to?

    Nope. Vouchers for catastrophic care would do the trick.

    The part where more lose insurance then gain I guess. Also the passing the costs onto the young who have less cash. I guess I don't understand those parts. Oh also the excise tax on medicine. That is full on retard.

    The CBO projections assume that 86% will be subsidized in 2014.
