And it is against pretty much everything this country was founded on. Freedom of choice will not exist much longer. You will have to do what they want you to whether you like it or not.

The current system in place is hitting everyone's pocketbook anyway. if someone goes into a hospital and rings up a big bill which it happens every time, the bill goes to the taxpayers, in a hidden tax at the end of the year. This is the truth. This will then be eliminated due to everyone being covered. Yes you may have a slight tax increase, BUT there is good reason for that. Say you get cancer, you lose your job a couple months later, Does your cancer immediately stop spreading.... NO. So therefore you still need that care, but hell the company you worked for isnt going to fit your medical bills are they? Wouldn't it be nice if there is a plan in place that prevents you from ever going without insurance. OH YEA, thanks to the Democrats (Republicans had NOTHING to do with this yet they are still covered) you will still be able to get your treatments and be with your family longer.
Not to mention if you choose to go on a government plan, you will likely save enough money to cover the slight increase in taxes. Which very likely the increase will go to the Top 1% of incomes, the sleazy dirt bag that fired you from said job. the guys here that are saying the top 1% are the ones creating job are living in a fantasy world, they only care about money and 90 percent of the time its firing people in the US and shipping jobs overseas.
