People are not going to begin to feel the effects of this between October and November. They won't feel it until after January when they start paying premiums they have never paid before and begin being denied coverage for things they have never been denied before. Oh, and when they find that the list of doctors available under their plan is but a fraction of what they are used to and that it will take 4 months to set up an initial appointment with their new doctor who happens to be from Bangladesh, then and only then will the people revolt.

Up until now, they been fed nothing but roses. Once they try using those roses, they will quickly find out that those roses are really dead ragweed.

Har!
The commies in DC will have to start importing “doctors “ from Cuba and other third world countries
No American in their right mind will pursue a career in medicine
DC political class is going to be shocked when payback time comes in 2014 and 2016 elections

Something like 15 million lower income people, who previously didn't qualify, will be stuffed into state Medicaid programs. Most of these systems are already overburdened and short on services. When some patients get tired of waiting they simply go to an emergency room. Some even call an ambulance to get quicker service.

Almost a trillion dollars is being cut from Medicare at a time when tens of millions of baby-boomers are entering the system. The White House does alright when dealing with fabricated crises—global warming, voter disenfranchisement, war on women. But we are about to see how they deal with a catastrophe of their own making.
