I am afraid...i'm told that I have one of the best healthcare policies available, but I certainly don't consider my coverage as adequate. my deductible is more than 3,000 a year before insurance pays a penny. also, my weekly cost for the coverage just went up 35%. so, after increase in payroll tax and increase in insurance cost, my paycheck is about half it was 2 months ago. that would be fine if my debt were half as much too. unfortunately, my debt is the same and now its gonna take me much longer to decrease my debt since I now have less money.

if our govt would have just removed the fraud in our healthcare system, obamacare would have never been necessary. but now we have, what will be, an obamacare mess (all insurance companies will interpret differently because the laws were written on top of each other and not written very coherently). now we get obamacare and fraud still remains.

I do believe all americans should have access to healthcare, but this was and is not the answer.
