Isn't this the law the requires every American to buy health care from the parasitic insurance companies? I just can't get exited about a law that puts billions of dollars into these crooks pockets.

As a Canadian visitor to DU I just have to say we all think your system is fuckin' nuts, and I'm not sure this bill does much to help. The provisions requiring the insurance companies to insure previous existing conditions, allowing young adults to stay on their parents plans and such are a step in the right direction, but until you get rid of the huge insurance companies and replace it with a government funded system the core problem remains.

....but good on Obama. Any day that sees a defeat for the Rethugs is a good day, indeed....

Please try to remember that this Congress has been 100% obstructionist. Knowing that you might choose to actually think it's great we got even this far. I do. I'm totally floored in disbelief actually and I agree with you.

it was done incrementally as it will be done in the U.S. We had private insurance companies in charge of our healthcare at one time as well, actually we still do when it comes to extended health.

This is a big step toward much better healthcare for Americans than what was in place before the ACA was passed.

It tell it all.. you do not need to explain this picture - it tell it all... Dam he looks sad.. hurt to the bone... Just think about it, a public option is still on the table thanks to the Supreme Court who desided it was legal..

That was NOT what they had hoped for...

I was glad it passed - even though I also would not be suprised it should not pass true the Higest court in the US...

It is a step in the right direction, but I fear US have a long way to come, before you have any near universal healt care for everyone... A long, hard way where progress would be fighted all the way by the "Conservatives" in the US.. (I refuse to call it conservatives, as I know a few conservatives - who allways have supported the idea of a public healt care, but then, they live in Norway... where even the conservatives support the idea of a wellfare system for everyone - it is in the details they disgress... )
