Obamacare explained

[quote fish_or_die] If I do get in an accident and can't afford the medical care then I die.......[/quote]

Now I know that you do not read my posts (something tells me you are reading this one tho)...but I for one agree MOSTLY with Obama Care's doing away with pre-existing conditions and the introduction of universal health care.

I blew out my ACL last year and thankfully had my parents insurance to pay the staggering $36,000 surgery (and that total does not include the 9 months of weekly physical therapy). I would be in debt for the next 40 years without that coverage. I am moving to a new insurance company that my work offers soon, and now that new insurance company can not deny me coverage of my knee thanks to Obama Care. I am definitely gonna have to pay more for this new insurance, but that is a price I am willing to pay!

I am gonna sound like a socialist here....but.....personally it took a surgery and a 9 month recovery at TOSH for me to understand the value of health insurance for everyone. I hope you do not have to go through a similar experience to understand what I am talking about.

You may preach Fish or Die that you would rather die on the table....but if you were in the hospital, facing life or death, and the possibility of $30,000+ dollars in surgery (not including physical therapy bills) .....you might just change your tune here.

What I suggest is that you rent the movie "Sicko". Perahps that could offer some insite?

This is just how I feel about the issue, by no means do I believe that eveyone else should agree.....let alone you Fish or Die
