Stupid show on Obamacare...

The best thing about The Drs is that they all show that they are as dumb as anyone who's not a Dr when they discuss non-medical issues, meaning issues not having to do with actual diagnosis and treatment.

This time, discussing Obamacare and health insurance in general, I was hoping to see actual facts being presented about what Obamacare would do, would not do, how it effected low-income and higher-income people, you know, the truth.

Instead, we got all sorts of opinionated blabber with a bunch of hysterical ninnies led by two or three of the Drs panel shouting down those with opposing opinions, and pretty much following the general media line of how wonderful everything is now, without any substantial facts. The only person on the show with actual facts was ostracized for a petty word used that was not PC. We also got to see the ultimate pretty-boy middleman Stork attempt to show himself as the great referee and compromiser, who stands for both everything and nothing.

I would not have any of these Drs do any sort of medical treatment for me, even though it usually is comped.

Obamacare is here to stay! Every western nation has UHC and so should we!

Requiring people buy health insurance, then allowing said health insurance companies to do what they want, isn't UHC. It's stupidity.

Getting a system like the UK or Canada, fine. The ACA is poorly written and a bad idea.

Dems tried to get a single payer system like the UK and Japan but the disgusting Repukes blocked it!

ObamaCare sucks. Obama lied about it. But, then again, he's lied about a lot of things during his 8 year tyranny.
You can't keep your same doctor. It's expensive, yet if you can't afford it, they fine you even more $$.
Now that Trump is president, I hope he does away with this travesty.
I've read a lot of comments about people having to pay up to $1,200 a month on ObamaCare. And, even then, the insurance didn't cover everything. For that much $$, any pills they get should be covered in gold.
It's ridiculous.
