And now we will wind up paying for you because your family has medical issues and couldn't previously get covered. The burden has simply been shifted. Good? Bad

And now we will wind up paying for you because your family has medical issues and couldn't previously get covered. The burden has simply been shifted. Good? Bad? Shrug, depends on which side of the line you sit on. I sit on the side of the line that favors less and smaller federal government. One of the beautiful results of the power we give to States to govern is that as a country we end up with 50 solutions. Our diverse populous can then choose which one fits best with their ideals and personal circumstances--and we get this while still maintaining ourselves as a cohesive country. Unfortunately, this time the government has chosen to white wall a solution across all citizens rather than to let the fundamental action of our country (States rights) do the work which would have resulted in a better solution, IMO.
