From what I've been reading you don't get Healthcare free in Obamacare, you MUST buy it under "penalty of law". Projections are already saying it will be more expensive than insurance is now. Good luck with that and no job. That's if you can find it in the first place as Insurers are dropping insurance because of the government mandate regarding "pre-existing condition", like your knee, for instance. You need for the whole industry to collapse so that the government, and whichever bureaucrat oversees you claim and your right to whatever treatment, can take "good" care of you.[/QUOTE]

But you propose nothing......and that is the problem. The companies can no longer compete given the cost of healthcare. So something has to be done. What would you do? It seems your solution is every person for themselves..... Currently have a very good job but like many of us still in the workforce we are just one step ahead of the next round of cuts. I have a pretty good nest egg and a company pension. I am old enough that I qualify for retirement healthcare pre Medicare, however it will take quite a bite out of that nest egg.

I am not one of the evil entitlement people.
