Holy shit, that's awesome! That little girl might die if her family can't figure out how to get her cancer treatment, but that other family saved 12K this year! It all evened out!
Too bad there's about 50 times as many, "Wtf happened to my coverage!?" stories goin on right now as, "Check out this cool free shit I got from the website!" stories.
Seriously, if your only response to the criticisms right now is that Obamacare might be ******* people over, but it's helping other people, you should just shitcan that entire conversation and stop typing. I don't see how the government picking winners and losers (especially when their choices result in more losers than there were under the other system) is superior to letting the winners and losers pick themselves. At least under the old system I have a chance of securing my medical coverage via my own financial means. Under the new system, you just have to be lucky enough to be part of the group that the current regime has decided is their preferred class.
Sorry, I'll take the old broken system over the new broken system. Seems like it was about 50 times less broken, given what we know to date.
