and do you not understand that people with that new insurance will be at the doctors constantly? or the older person that goes to the doctor because they have nothing better to do but have insurance? Do you not understand that doctors aren't going to work with the huge pay cuts? Why would they go to school and work so hard to not make a bunch of money? Most doctors deserve every penny they charge! Obama care isn't removing the middle man, don't know where you got that Idea?

Sure you can get cheap basic coverage (pain meds and antibiotics) but if you need more than that you will pay! You get the insurance you pay for, just like car insurance. Full coverage or just liability...
