Here is what it does for Americans..
1. If you had cancer as a 14 year old and now are 24 and need to get insurance. Insurance companies can't punish you for daring to have cancer
2. If you have the misfortune of becoming seriously ill and run up bills over $100,000, the insurance company can't cap your bill and make you pay anything in excess of $100,000
3. If you just graduated college and have to work for a small company that does not offer health coverage, you can be covered on your parents policy until you are 26.
4. If you own or work for a small company, Insurance pools will be formed to allow you to compete as a large group and get better rates
5. You won't have to defer preventive care which may detect serious problems. It will be free with your insurance coverage
6. Insurance companies will not be able to drop you if you become seriously ill
Yesterday Boehner looked like a man going to the hangmans noose, The leadership understand that they have screwed the pooch. He knows if this passes the American people will see the benifits nearly immediately and that ALL the THREATS the Rs have made about "what will happen" wont materialize and the republican party will have stood in the way, fought and threatened DOOM and did it by lying their asses off. They will have it thrown in their faces for a generation to come. Boehner knows his carreer is fucked and all Rs who did all the fear mongering will be fucked.
From your lips to god's ears.
