The sad thing about the left like Tirge Caps is that they never liked the exchanges idea anyway because they believe in government single payer care for absolutely free.... Wheee!

I forget which American mainstream media ditz was over in London for the Olympics, and shut her finger in a door - she went to get “free NHS” care and was amazed, absolutely amazed when the British media folks over there were horrified - they insisted she go to a private doc and they paid for it. She didn’t understand, and was even more surprised to be told that anyone on the north side of 75K a year there buys their own, private care because the NHS is a total disaster.

Yes, many employers pay for BUPA insurance -

The US libs don't realize the amount of private insurance in the UK. You usually get to see the same doctors but much quicker
