So you are saying that people were going without care before the law? You just don't get it do you? When you give millions of freeloaders something for free, they are going to use it and abuse it. Look at the statistics for obamaphones or food stamp fraud. These leeches were raised expecting the handouts and goodies and now they are entitled to them.

Al, So you are saying that people were going without care before the law? I'm saying that costs are going up despite what the supporters of ObamaCare claimed. I've always acknowledged that the law will likely reduce the number of uninsured people in America. That in itself may be an admirable goal, but at what cost? Certainly more than what the supporters were led to believe. And that's the dirty trick with getting the law passed. It would never have passed if it correctly accounted for the costs. No need to tell me that this isn't the first time Congress underestimated the cost of anything. Government just keeps getting bigger, and we're all on the hook. And for what? To cement the status quo? Tenchusatsu
