What part of government “forced” and “subsidized” do you not understand? How many hundreds of millions is RomneyCare already over the government’s proposed budget of expenses?

How many hundreds of millions is it over?

And what Democrat-added provisions were added after Romney left office to put it over budget? It was not over budget when he left.

The insurance premiums are subsidized only for the very poor with incomes under the federal poverty lines. These folks are already subsidized by many govt programs. Anyone above the federal poverty line has to PAY for their own insurance which is a major improvement and will create fewer free loaders. I have plenty of insurance plans to choose from and go see any doctor in any hospital which would not be the case in socialized medicine.

Bottom line: the number of subsidized people goes down with Romney care. I am all for banning all govt subsidized health care but until that happens this a move in the right direction. Anytime fewer people are supported by the govt that is a move that I support as a strong proponent of personal responsibility.
