>> I know that people with pre-existing conditions will get insurance,

Well, this is a plus.

>> that young adults are covered on their parents' policy til 26

I'm not sure this is really a positive at all. Kids who are 26 could buy their own insurance; both of mine did, and it was dirt cheap -- in fact, my 29 year old son still pays only $100/month. What a bargain.

I don't see much value in training kids that someone will take care of them forever.

>> that almost all Americans will be able to get insurance and hopefully get preventive medicine measures.

Almost all Americans could already get insurance. If they wanted it. The primary differences are that now they've given up their basic right NOT to have insurance if they so choose, and many of those who DID have insurance will not any longer. In addition, they won't have jobs, since Obamacare is a huge job killer, particularly for young adults who were to pay for this nonsense.

>> Thank God for the Dems.......just like they gave us SS,Medicare,Medicaid........

Do you have any idea how fucking stupid this remark is? These programs -- these three you mentioned -- have sucked the future standards of living away from our kids and their as-yet unborn grandkids.

How you can sleep at night knowing this is beyond me.

It is the most immoral action any nation ever took against its children short of just killing them; in many cases, it will end up giving them lives that make the Dust Bowl look like Disneyland. That's no way to live, and YOU did it to them.
