Kaiser is already laying off their additional staff because of the 80% rule that is mandated by Obamacare. all these years they were using upto 40% for administrative costs and profit. Only 60% of the patients' premium were being returned to the patients.

What a bloody racket. Talked to a doctor the other day who practiced 10 years in Canada and is now practicing here in the US. Here he can see the racqueteering by the pharm and insurance companies. In Canada, the focus is on preventive care. Here it is the other way around. They want the patient to get sick so that they can make more money by giving drugs (way to go Pharma industry, make your back fast), billing Medicare etc. etc. The waiting line that the anti-Obamacare folks tell us about is the waiting line for preventive care such as mammograms, psa tests etc.

Can't wait for Obamacare to get ushered in with full gusto in 2014. And those states who are still resisting, it will the people there who would tell their Guvs to go along after they see the benefits in states that have already adopted it.
