I deleted a completed response to support my earlier comments and then thought what the heck are you doing? what you are doing is getting caught up in that child's game of "Is So" Is Not".
I googled the affects of ObamaCare and there were so many links defending and rejecting ObamaCare that I thought it is no wonder there is so much confusion i guess nancy Pelosi had it right when she said "We do 't know what the bill says until after we pass it." Well we still don't know? For instance the CBO expects the loss of employer coverage to be 11 million, CMS Office iof the Actuary 14 million, The Lawin Group 17.2 million and American Action forum 35 million
What we do know is that the CBO raised ACA's projection for its 10 year implementation from 900 billion to 2.6 trillion. what we do know is that the government is notorious for missing projection. what we do know is that government ignores budgets because it has an inexhaustible source of money taxes and or the printing press. What we do know is that the day ObamaCare was decided by the Supreme Court hospital stocks went through the roof. Why not taxes are a guarantee making these stocks practically a life long annuity.
Sole practioners will give up individual practice and sign on to hospitals as explained in one of the google citations and some will just leave medicine
I understand that some on this thread have the opinion that those non-supporters rely on EUC's but this is one person in oppostion watched Obama throw every organization that supported his ambition to pass ObamaCare under the bus. They supported him not because it was good for the country but their pocketbooks..Big Pharma comes to mind and so does AARP because they knew ObamaCare meant that Medicare Advantage would no longer exist and they could move in to take its place.
It is the nature of business and hence people to adapt in order to survive. Taxpayers/medical patients both must ask themselves but how does this all affect me? At the risk of being once again accused of EUC's I'll just say I opine you decide.
