I broke my toe last year, the emergency room cost over $3000, took 4 hours, and all i got was a piece of tape. But it's cheaper than $1200 a year for insurance i'll never use. I don't want to buy health insurance. I want care to become affordable like it was before insurance took over the industry. I want health insurance to go extinct. In the 1950's a doctor's visit was only a few dollars.


My President is going to force me to buy it.. never.

That's why you shouldn't mind too much if Obamacare gets killed off because it's a really poor imitation of a proper public health system. If the Republicans were smart they'd leave this thing be, because if they actually defeat it the next time the Democrats take control they're likely to push something even closer to a public health system. If the Republicans are going to kill off something like Obamacare, the Democrats might as well push through something far closer to a true public health system.
