You may want to do some checking on this for yourself. The next time you visit your doctor ask him/her opinion of Obamacare. I have yet to meet a physician in private practice that supports the idea. An incidental fact - there are nineteen members of Congress who have Medical Degrees. Eighteen of these physicians voted against Obamacare. The only one supporting Obamacare was Rep. Jim McDermott who is an 11 term member of Congress and no intention of retiring. He first ran for public office in 1970 and since has been a career politician rather than a practicing physician.
