"You're drive by politics, not by outcomes."

No, that would be Republicans.

How long before Obama brags about how much healthcare costs have dropped due to Obamacare destroying peoples' access to healthcare?

But Americans' health care has already suffered and will get worse over time.

You know....if you had any kind of consciousness, you would know that this country's health care has been a big fail for a lot of Americans. But you choose to stay semi conscious in order to hold onto your crazy ideology.

An Arkansas story.....

Patients’ Costs Skyrocket; Specialists’ Incomes Soar

CONWAY, Ark. — Kim Little had not thought much about the tiny white spot on the side of her cheek until a physician’s assistant at her dermatologist’s office warned that it might be cancerous. He took a biopsy, returning 15 minutes later to confirm the diagnosis and schedule her for an outpatient procedure at the Arkansas Skin Cancer Center in Little Rock, 30 miles away.

That was the prelude to a daylong medical odyssey several weeks later, through different private offices on the manicured campus at the Baptist Health Medical Center that involved a dermatologist, an anesthesiologist and an ophthalmologist who practices plastic surgery. It generated bills of more than $25,000.

“I felt like I was a hostage,” said Ms. Little, a professor of history at the University of Central Arkansas, who had been told beforehand that she would need just a couple of stitches. “I didn’t have any clue how much they were going to bill. I had no idea it would be so much.”
