I would be too but it's the anti-thesis of that. It actually makes the big, parasitical, for profit, insurance companies more powerful while bailing them out by forcing you to buy their "product". All they had to do was expand medicare.
We didn't even need this whole "single payer option", we already have a state run medical program. Medicaid / Medicare. Expand them and allow them to compete with the private insurance crooks.

I think you should re-watch the Dennis Kucinich interview. Obamacare is an insurance company bailout in disguise.

They can just make up some other silly reason for it instead becasue the wording only covers preexisting conditions.

And don't forget the death panels, the cuts in medicare, and the compulsary mandate that makes you buy
for-profit insurance products that (
as you have just stated) can deny you care the minute your health issues affect their bottomline.
