Remember, also, that it was a Republican appointee (Chief Justice Roberts) who declared the individual mandate to be constitutional.

Golfingnuts is right when he says this law will be one of the major triumphs in Presidential history - like Social Security and Medicare. Without both of those, our society would be far worse off. How many of you would be as comfortable as you are without Social Security or Medicare?

I have also heard the fear factor brought up that physicians will become scarce due to Obamacare because they cannot make a profit anymore. It is a known fact that there is currently a record number of students applying for medical school across the USA. Some of the old timers are retiring but there is a fresh crop with new skills ready to take their places.
Could you copy and paste the poster who expressed this... "some posters are against the mandate for insurance companies to provide health insurance to those with pre-existing conditions."

I have never seen anyone against that, nor even heard that point debated by anyone on a national scale. Fact is the proposals dismissed before this law all addressed that fact and everyone seems to be on the same page, so just to stay up on it...please allow where that came from. Thanks

I also have not heard the scare of physicians thing for the last year or so. The problem seems to be losing the physician that you want.

So if you could tell me the source of your post, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks again
