I'm happy about this. I saw that stat on the news this morning about only having a 23% approval rating for this accross the country... it proves that 77% of our country are either rich(very, very few) or really dumb. (most) Sorry, i know a LOT of people disagree with me cause they don't want "the government" to make all the health decisions for them... because they prefer FOR PROFIT INSURANCE COMPANIES to make their decisions for them. Bravo.


right Jim. I doubt that 23% is correct, sounds like a made up statistic, although most of this country is stupid or rich or both.

The bill will take effect in 2016. MA already has mandatory healthcare so it won't affect MA people. But for those who want it, the Fed will setup cheap insurance exchanges where you won't be denied coverage. The government doesn't make any healthcare decisions. It just prevents healthcare/insurance corporations from denying coverage. (See Medicare - the only reason it was passed was so that insurance companies would not have to provide coverage to the elderly, their biggest customers)

I won't go into a huge rant about how much of a victory this is. Not only does it strengthen the middle class (the key to a sustainable civilization) but it kills the healthcare/insurance/government triad that has always existed and only benefits the super rich.

Anybody clueless about it that cares to know should check out these -
