Sharla,

This argument comes down to whether a person trusts the government or not. I trust government.

Massachusetts has universal health care that was enacted in 2006 under Mitt Romney.
It is essentially the same health plan that will be signed into law tomorrow by Obama.
People in Massachusetts like their health care.

According to the new plan that the prez will sign on Tuesday, everyone will be required to buy insurance by 2014 or face a fine.
Poor people will be exempt.

Most likely they will be fined.
People will have to buy insurance.
This plan only works if everyone has insurance in one form or another.



I do not get upset by talking about this, but I feel very strongly that people will get used to this idea and find that the plan is a very good thing.

But I am not sure who is paying for this.
This law will reduce health care costs and save our country billions of dollars.
The independent Congressional Budget Office has done the math.


Other questions?
