Healthcare costs are rising faster right now because of Obamacare before it is even fully implemented. Mandates like kids until 26 years old and mandated freebies are already driving up costs.

We already have doctors refusing Blue Cross patients because Blue Cross doesn't pay. Obamacare is promising the same end. Doctors will be forced to treat more for less and many will just quit.

I just hope the Supreme Court sees that it is Unconstitutional and throws out the whole law.

The legislators need to READ the law before they vote on it. Pelosie's statement, "We need to pass this law so we can find out what's in it", AAARRRGGGHHHHH!!
I'm not trying to be rude, but this seems to be just following the party line...unions are bad, obamacare will ruin everything...

So we dump the post office since it runs at a loss and now we can only use ups or dhl?

How are lots of countries able to have fully functional government health care programs (which, arguably, take better care of their people than we do) and if we try to go that route, everything will come crumbling down? People making a profit off my well being scares me more than socialized medicine...
