If healthcare were only in the hands of healthcare practitioners, I wouldn’t be concerned. But it is even more in the hands of the insurance companies, for profit hospital administrators, and big Pharma, so I do worry. There have been reports that in several states which have been implementing Obamacare that costs are actually going down. Any information pro or con on that situation??

...costs are actually going down...I've heard about a few boasts from the governors of deep blue states like New York, which were already paying very high insurance premiums, that there would be some reductions - but in the case of New York, I think it turned out to be only a one year gimmick reduction, rigged by applying against the new costs of insurance a one-time rebate owed some patients because in the past they had paid more to companies charging administrative fees higher than the new law allowed (fees which the companies claim give them appropriate funding to seek out insurance fraud and develop more efficient products)......
