One in three Americans has put off seeking medical treatment in 2014 due to high costs, according to Gallup the highest percentage since Gallup began asking the question in 2001.
Thirty-three percent of Americans have delayed medical treatment for themselves or their families because of the costs theyd have to pay, according to the survey. Obamacare, of course, had promised that it would help make health care more affordable for everyone, but the number of people who cant afford a trip to the doctor has actually risen three points since 2013, before most Obamacare provisions took effect.
The hardest-hit: the middle-class. Americans with an annual household income of between $30,000 and $75,000 began delaying medical care over costs more in 2014, up to 38 percent in 2014 from 33 percent last year; among households that earn above $75,000, 28 percent delayed care this year, compared to just 17 percent last year.

“We did not have to pass the piece o poop to know what was in it!”
Chuckie Schumer is admitting the truth, but the rest of the democrats need to eat the entire sandwich and then go back for seconds before they will admit this.

0bama wants this to happen. He wants the American health care system to totally collapse so that an even more draconian solution can be fomented on the People.
"We in the SENATE are aghast at the proposed Constitutional amendment,
which will force the EXEMPT to be organ donors for the nonEXEMPT, forever."
Just remember, without Obamacare this number would be much, much higher.
(really should add /sarc, if not for the number of people who will actually believe this.)
And we ain’t seen nuthin yet.
Post-midterms and then 2015 bring the real hurt.
And that’s how they are saving the promised $2,500.00 this year - by not taking care of medical conditions that they can’t afford...
There. Fixed.
