Why are people still amped up over about what others do in the bedroom. Too much gov't intervention in private lives. If you're gay, you're gay, so what? I really don't spend much time thinking about it, but it makes no difference. What are these people afraid of? I mean, really, gay is not...

Your hyperbole notwithstanding, I agree that we really need to clean up the actual costs involved with HC. Starting with the insurance companies, all the way down to $20 bandaids.

Not sure of your point, with respect would you please explain? I think I agree with what I think you're saying. Not sure. If you you're saying that these low level clerks think they are traders who are in the 1% to delude themselves, then I totally agree. And, it's humorous that they can be...

OK, but the uninsured are going to be forced to pay something, maybe not enough, but something. And this ACA motivates them to buy insurance. Sure, single payer, Medicare for everyone is the obvious best choice. Just remove the over 65 portion of what works well. Done. But, until then, this...

Of course they should legalize drugs, lower the prison rate, save zillion $$ on the drug war. But then the big pharm companies wouldn't be happy. Look everyone, I hate partisan politics, but admit I'm a social liberal. I don't want gov't in my bedroom, or telling me about God. I don't...

AAA - we're paying 100% now of the uninsured HC. If we make them pay something, we're better off. and jem, a bit exaggerated and theatrical. I didn't want to pay trillions for foolish wars either, but as an American, I pay my taxes, a lot of them. Obama didn't take your guns, didn't...

Agree. But this is better than nothing. And, to get single payer, we will have to wait until after Obama is re-elected., if at all.

We are already doing that, at least this helps motivate millions to pay their own way, or face a penalty. Not a big deal.

Exactly, why are we afraid to do the right thing? Is it the word socialism? It's just a word when it comes to HC.

Pure speculation at this point. But, check insurance rates for the last 10 years if you want to see a trend. http://moneyland.time.com/2009/09/16/health-insurance-premiums-up-131-in-last-ten-years/

Or, I have helped the American people and businesses. Look, I'm tired of paying taxes to cover those uninsured, just like with those with no car insurance. Make them pay a penalty.

Nonsense, a fine for those laggards who want me to pay for their healthcare via taxes. I believe they should pay their own way. Are you for more welfare? Fine/tax those who are taking from the system. Makes it easier to hire more workers.

Again, I'll try to explain this. If you have insurance, no changes, no big deal. If you don't, I guess you expect me and other taxpayers to cover you for your medical and emergency room visits. You want to be on welfare from other taxpayers. That's fine I guess. But, if you believe in...

I can't believe so many here are so misinformed. Look, if you have insurance great, no changes. If you don't, I suppose you expect me, and other taxpayers to cover your medical/emergency rooms? I don't want to pay more taxes to cover those, who are essentially welfare recipients, who...

Common sense. Lawyers are educated. Therefore they go to school.

Yes, if we didn't have Obamacare, then we, as taxpayers, have to cover all the medical and emergency costs for those who don't. Like us paying for welfare. Remember 1975? I prefer each pay their own way, one way or another. Sounds pretty conservative to me, don't know about you. Maybe you like...

So much nonsense. Everyone who has health care, no changes. If you don't have it, and want taxpayers, other taxpayers, to pay for your medical care, like welfare, then fine I guess. But, if you want actual conservative values, like personal responsibility, then you want those who don't have...

Admitting single payer is still the better choice, since we could join most of the free world in not having employers worry about providing this benefit to their employees. This would help lower their costs, make it better for new businesses to start, and existing businesses to hire more...

Right, and by that time, either Obama or Romney will have addressed it. We cannot count on Ins Co's to do anything but raise prices, irrespective of politics.
