At least with Obamacare I know if a loved one gets sick and loses their job there is a chance for them not to lose everything they have. That is a good thing. I suffer from severe bouts of empathy thus I am unfit for the Republican party.

yeah, it's been a yearly thing for us as well. i'm looking into insurance thru my job, as it appears to be lower than his has been.
as for costs, medical care costs have been going up at a very high rate for years. no surprise that premiums have as well. and yet, for our care getting more and more expensive, americans are no healthier. so why spend all that money if there's nothing to show for it? and i'm afraid obamacare hasn't done really anything to bring actual medical costs down. all they've done is informed doctors that medicare/caid reimbursements will drop. it's becoming very, very difficult for people to find medicare/caid doctors any more.
