Obamacare is not a solution. Fining people who can't afford health care makes no sense. If they can't afford the bare minimum they certainly won't be able to pay a fine and it will just be a boondoggle of useless paper work and wasted time and money. It is just a poor attempt for this administration to say they have done something about health care for the uninsured. They can say "See we did something about the problem." and that would not be true at all. The simply did something to the problem.If you are waiting for something like the forms of universal health care that other countries tout you'll still be waiting in 2016 and beyond. The insurance companies and their lobby can't let that happen and they have the backing of the majority of the people. Americans just don't want to pay for someone else's health insurance (even thought we already do that). It is a little strange to me that we don't mind our tax dollar being spent on people we don't know in countries that most know little or nothing about yet we don't want to use those tax dollars to improve the situation in the US. Most of that money we spend on other countries usually winds up in the pockets of their leaders' bank accounts. Yet we never say a word about that.The Obama administration even wants to raise the monthly premium for Medicare yet they have frozen Social Security. If you were in the work force after 1980 you have already paid a sizable sum into Medicare as well as SS. So where are the returns? Both institutions funds have been bled off by greedy politicians to use elsewhere.In a sense we already have free medical care at local county hospitals but the administration of the money going to these institutions seems to disappear down one rat-hole or another. Even the VA is in trouble.The politicians promise change but not reform. I guess change means that the names of the political recipients changes but the system remains pretty much the same. Considering the actual state of the health of the American people reform certainly is in order. BTW I am sure you have noticed as I have the changethat has taken place over the past 2 years....you monthly premium, like mine, has probably risen. Now that IS change but not for the better.
