Well, if it is any consolation to all the uninsured who are now insured with worthless, expensive policies, the rest of us who have paid the price for good insurance over the years can’t afford it anymore, and our policies are nothing compared to what we used to have. There are high copays and deductibles, and maximum payouts where there used to be none. For people on the economic margin, where millions of us reside, Obamacare and the fascist insurance tyrants it supports are killing us. We have carried the burden of insane markups in medical costs, and our backs are breaking.
Your post expresses the real problem perfectly. A lot of us have always had “good” insurance, paid through the nose, and gotten the best care we could find. Now we can’t find good enough care and what we once could afford has become out of reach for all but movie stars.
The poor will always get close to free or free care. WE are the ones who lost our plan and lost our doctors. Thanks to the lying uncaring schmuck in the WH.
This is exactly where we are. Not looking forward to 2015.
