>> Why would MD's not like Obamacare, they're going to get 40 million new patients who can pay their bills...... This is the ignorance that the political debate has brought us. There were never 40 million. It was supposed to have been 32 million, half covered by medicaid. That figure is now reduced to something like half that, and counting people who did have coverage and lost it, all this will likely get between 20 and 24 million newly covered persons, net. Half those are covered by Medicaid, which doctors don't want to see anyway because they lose money everytime they see one. So, they'll get health care from mid-level providers -- in effect, they're worse off than they were before. You people are such idiots.

40 million paying less than before, so the doctors lose even more, that's why they are quitting and kids are not gonna be doctors. you remind me of a customer. He had 300 buildings, he wanted me to do a particular job for him. The going rate was about 5000 dollars for each building. He said he would give me 500 for each building. He said I could make it up in volume, he was as stupid as you are. ( well he was just cheap and was hoping I was a stupid as you are, like obama hopes doctors are)
