obama care

I don't understand what this country is coming to. People are fighting over stuff they have no control over. I just hope this all gets resolved soon. I feel this obamacare is going to be a good thing for all the uninsured people. People need to understand it better before they go off half cocked and start spouting stuff they have no clue about.

We'll find out soon enough. People have already been negatively effected by it in some way and therefore the concerns are understandable.

I don't think it was the best possible solution. Basically, it is giving more money to the health insurance industry, not covering everybody, and more expensive for some people. I think it's better than what we have now, but I think Medicare for everybody would have been a better solution.

The reason people are so up in arms is that they really DIDN'T have control over something they should have had control over.

I think they're up in arms for a long list of reasons. Some believe we should have had universal health care, and are upset that this is mainly benefitting insurance companies. Some are outraged at being forced to either buy insurance or pay a penalty. Others just flat out believe that the government should stay out of it and let the market take care of things. And many are seeing their plans withdrawn and replaced with more expensive plans. But I have also read some preliminary reports of people who have signed up through an exchange and are quite happy with what they're getting.

I don't have a clue either to be honest. Really don't understand too much about politics when it comes to things like this and maybe should just keep quiet. Still I wonder what is going on? Is this a question of where to spend money and which is better? Check a or b... [] a - health care for a more productive society and economy [] b - put money into weapon production and keep the economy strong Not even sure if a or b is the choice here? Someone tell me what is going on?
