I was for single payer national health care. I am now on medicare.
My wife can't get medicare for several more years. I won't get the insurance and can't afford the penalty.
I will just let the money I owe pile up and increase with penalties and interest. There will be enough people in that category that they will probably negotiate an offer in compromise of 10 or 15 cents on a dollar.
Basically, obama-romney-herritage foundation style health care will fail.
It will be such a mess that they will have to go to single payer national health insurance like most of the advanced economies in the world.
The rich will still be able to suplement their health care out of pocket.
I also see a brisk travel business invovling out of country surgeries.
I think Obama care was designed to fail. Poor and low income people still won't get decent care. Once it fails we'll have to start from scratch and get it right.
Any idiot with an expert program and two years technical training could handle all the primary care for 1/4 the cost.
