As someone who is disabled and on medicare, I regularly thank my doctors for seeing me because I know they are already being paid substantially less for doing so, when they don’t have to take medicare patients.

When enough disabled and seniors are unable to find a doctor who will take ‘medicare’, they’ll be screaming for the single payer solution in which all doctors will be forced to work for the government and be paid to see anyone/everyone.

Unfortunately, those same doctors will probably get paid less than they already do when taking medicare patients and so they will either find a black market for patients with $$$, or they’ll opt for another line of work.

There will be no middle...have...or....have not.

That was their plan the whole time.

I think we'll start seeing doctor shortages soon after ObamaCare becomes law. ObamaCare incentives will be toxic - the system will start to fall apart. The loss of doctors will be dealt with by allowing people who aren't doctors to function as doctors. Replacements will make more mistakes - then another 'unintended consequence ... another response on and on until black market medical care become the dangerous norm.

Elections matter ...
