Obamacare is more than that.
1 It is national.
2 It will expand. Just like SS and Medicare.
It is the framework for nationalized single payer health care.
Obamacare is essentially the Republican version of health care reform. There is nothing crazy or extreme about it. Like Obama. Nothing he has done in the last 3 and a half years would lead a rational person to conclude that Obama is a radical.
There is something wrong with Obamacare.
IT DOESN'T ADDRESS THE ******* PROBLEM WITH HEALTHCARE IN THIS COUNTRY, WHICH IS OUT OF CONTROL COSTS.
It just wraps a ton of money and federal bureaucracy around an already bloated, broken system.
You don't "fix" problems by throwing money at it. You fix problems by analyzing them, identifying what's broken, and fixing or streamlining the process.
Obamacare doesn't do that. It's a trillion-plus dollar band-aid.
