Whether this healthcare bill passes or not, there's always going to be some form of subsidized healthcare in this country. Before Obamacare, those that had no insurance but still went to the hospital and got care, got it at the expense of the taxpayers. At least with the new system, they will have to pay something in most cases. If you lose your job and get unemployment insurance, even though you pay something into it from your check every payday, some of that money is also subsidized. Many of the things that you may take for granted and enjoy at certain times in your life are subsidized in one way or another. So, be careful about what you complain about, because I'm sure some of the things that you use and count on throughout your daily life is subsidized in one way or another. I prefer the path of compassion for my fellow man that may not have some of the privileges that the rest of us enjoy or take for granted.
It's not welfare when you're paying for it in monthly premiums and copays. Most industrialized nations have affordable or FREE healthcare for all of their citizens, so why not the biggest industrialized country in the free world?
Yup, believe it or not, when women have a C-Section to give birth, many insurers consider that a complication and it is considered a pre-existing condition. Crazyness!
