The true goal of ObamCare was to give politicians control and a mechanism of coercion to assert that control.
If you control peoples health care you control a major facet of their lives. If you control peoples health care you can coerce them to vote for politicians who dole out the medicine
To do this medical costs must be contained to keep the system from collapse to maintain that control.
Because of this, people with expensive chronic conditions cannot be provided with long term expensive treatments.
These people with chronic conditions must therefore be kicked to the curb, which will not make the sick person and their families very happy.
Unhappy people with horrible chronic diseases make for great sob stories that provide bad press for politicians and unhappy people with nothing to lose do not vote for politicians who control medical care so it is in the interests of the politicians that these chronic patient die as quickly as possible before they become a political liability.
This one reason euthanasia is so popular in Socialist societies. Of course the fact that Socialist societies are so depressing and degrading that even young and healthy people often choose suicide dose not make things better.

(4) never be denied coverage for a pre-existing condition,
(5) sign up instantly on my tech-savvy government Web site,
