Consider the 62-year-old worker who hates his job and who would happily retire on his Social Security benefits. Unfortunately, this worker cannot do it if he is married to a 55-year-old breast cancer survivor who does not work, and who in most states has been uninsurable in the individual insurance market before the new law. If that worker left his job, he and his uninsurable wife would face catastrophic medical bills. Now, with healthcare reform ensuring his access to affordable coverage, this man is no longer trapped. This is a good outcome. http://www.latimes.com/opinion/commentary/la-oe-gruber-cbo-report-economy-obamacare-20140209,0,3178846.story#ixzz2sk9E7mSg
