As the politicians fuss and fight over the merits of the biggest overhaul of the health insurance system in this country, you may be wondering, "What does this all mean to me?" Here's what we know so far about what's up with your health care.
1. It's all about me
The Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, as it is now commonly known, went into effect in 2010 and was affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2012, despite the 42 times the House Republicans tried to repeal it.
It will have the most dramatic impact on the 48 million Americans who don't or haven't been able to get insurance. By 2014, everyone -- with a few exceptions -- has to have insurance or face a penalty.

Many full fledged medical centers also do free blood pressure checks.
This author is just making up bogus arguments as she is going along to try desperately to make Obamacare look good to the low information crowd. She is not arguing from a standpoint of reality.
If you just took the reading, I imagine not. If you gave medical advise (BP is 140000/2500!!!!! You’re screwed!) then I guess it would be. LOL.
One should instruct their daughters that to get ahead in the Brave New World they should appear as genderly confused as possible.
What’s interesting is that right in the middle of her article they link to a related article which totally exposes the fallacy of that argument she makes - “Get ready for higher health insurance costs at work” http://economy.money.cnn.com/2013/10/22/health-insurance-premiums/
Oh sure .. She’s not biased or anything. /s

CNN at its worst.
A biased story by a diehard regime follower presented as “news”
You have a prostate?
And ovaries, apparently. Under ObamaCare, one will be covered for both!
That's a typo. She meant "prostrate."
How can making insurance more expensive make it easier for any of the 48 million get insurance they couldn’t get before? As for those who are getting on Medicaid, was a 2700 page bill really necessary for that. All others, at some point, will pay considerably more for this government headache. Spin it any direction you want. It is still a turd.
Good point - she probably thinks this woman is a hero...
So...Iv'e heard that there are adverts on Craig's List personals....and some other web site (that I can't recall) that offer "prostate massage"....if I sign up....are the fees tax deductible.......enquiring minds seek to know.
Health care is having health care providers treat you when you are sick or injured.
0bamaCare is gov run insurance.
Insurance is only as good as the policy, only as good as the carrier's managers and only applies if your health care providers will accept it as payment and doesn't pay anything until you meet the deductible.
What does 0bamaCare cover?
How good is the gov at managing a business?
How many doctors, hospitals and clinics will accept 0bamaCare?
How high is your deductible and can you afford that after paying your premiums?
Those are the questions you need to ask yourself, Jen.
Here is a clue to the answers you will find... You're f****d, Jen!
PRICELESS! Stosh I commend you!
We already know this is not true. Still, CNN is peddling this lie today, when the White House is in big trouble for telling the same lie dozens of times over the past four years to individuals who like their insurance.
“These arguments by the left are embarrassingly absurd. Do they actually think they make sense when they make them?”
They can’t make sense. They have none. They’ve been told the “argument” is truth alone. This child was once a free human. Now she’s a complete mind full of crap that was force fed to her. She can’t make sense out of sense. She was never allowed to grow any on her own. No decision making is not a good way to grow up. You never learn anything when you’re told how to think! You end up never making a decision by virtue of thought!
