Free markets? Just like the way China sticks it to us with manufacturing every day? Because we sold out our labor forces here in the USA by opening free trade that only seems to go one way. Remember those bumper stickers that used to say, "Buy American, the job it saves could be yours"?

People who couldn't afford preventive care ultimately received it the most expensive way, in the emergency room. Consider the fact that the Heritage Foundation, a conservation think tank, essentially came up with the main ideas of Obamacare.

Yes, I've heard about it just as everybody else has. But was it really a broken system? Please explain how Obamacare is going to fix it, AND SAVE MONEY ACROSS THE BOARD.
