Yes, I really am! Not because it is forced upon us, many good things are forced upon us because it is the price of living in a society. I don't want the independence and isolation of failed States like Somalia. The Affordable Care Act is a health system instigated and supported by the Insurance Companies of America and it is purely for their benefit. Have you read any of the Policies that are being offered? They are all bad policies, no wonder our Congress wants to be excluded! Most of them have a $5,000 deductible (or even more!) and 20% or more copay! This means they won't pay a dime until you come up with five thousand dollars FIRST! and 20% each time! Lots of people can't do this and if you don't it won't cost the insurance company a dime!
I have Private Insurance and it costs $1,200 per month! That is a lot of money and I don't pay it all.
Lucky me, the company where my wife works pays $1,000 per month and we pay the $200. But someone is still paying and many companies simply can't afford the thousand or so each month for their employees. my wife's company charges higher prices for their services so in reality, YOU are paying for my insurance and I thank you for that!
I had Cancer about four years ago, stage "4" and gone now but at a total cost of $130,000! 20% of that would have cost me $26,000 which I didn't have. Without this $26,000, under The Affordable Care Act, the insurance companies would pay nothing. I had good insurance, paid a total of $1,000 and they paid the rest.
That is what we should all have. Maybe the Affordable Care Act is a step in the right direction but it is a baby step indeed. I have many Canadian Cousins and they have real National Health Care there.
One cousin had major back surgery and another had serious cancer treatment and neither had any medical bills to pay! I would like a system like that.

Are you following the news, Barbra?
The Republicans want to cut back on Medicare! How would you defend that?
I have a small mountain of fliers from various providers. This morning I called my insurance guy & asked about this stuff vs. my current insurance. He told me to throw them out because what I have is so much better. Since, I bought my present policy, I've only had to pay $14.39. I'm smiling.
