To Hello in a Handbasket on Healthcare

Well, now we have confirmation by the supreme court to the new Health care mandates. I can understand mandates for drivers to insure their vehicles, because that makes sense, fiscal responsibility if they are involved in a crash.  Healthcare mandates only affect those who won't qualify for medicaid including those just making it on low income and paycheck to paycheck. Companies are going to have to offer hospital only coverage, to cover those truly serious medical crises, in order to help people afford health insurance on low income. Give me a break! Even for older workers, many companies do not offer health insurance to their employees.  You cannot imagine what their insurance premiums will be! Totally dreadful. So insurance companies with HAVE to come up with policies for people who can ill afford any insurance. A hospital only, and NOT covering visits to the emergency room for a common cold, or the emergency room will see abuse and the premiums will go up. Better start getting training for jobs which can go well in other countries because this country is becoming a big government telling you how to live. Maybe Australia will be the new promised land. I'm too old to go but you young folks, take heed.
