I'm willing to give it a try. But we need safe-guards (insurance) as it is a big gamble (to at least to 50% of us plus). It's supposed to save money and that's all good. However we need a stop/loss put in at $5 Billion. That's plenty and we can't afford more. If it works? God Bless Obama....

Unfortunately, there is no "try" with ObamaCare or any other liberal program. They seize power from the individual in the form of freedom and it never comes back.

Sorry if my first sentence sounds Yoda-like.
