    Nothing is free people. I don't understand how people think that insurance companies can just PAY for services without charging people. All this means is increased premiums. Trust me, the people will still be paying for it in some way or another. There's no such thing as a free lunch!!

    I'm doing everything I can to help the president by sharing all of this information with my friends on Face Book. I've always been a fan of the Mr. Obama. I really appreciate what he's done for me.

    Finally he is standing up on his record as far as healthcare goes! This is one area I had a problem with him... I remember the way he allowed republicans to define to the american people what the affordable care act is. I was for Hillary who might have been a little more brash... good to see Obama is standing up and letting people know this is the right thing. I', signing this historic bill because its helpful for you and our healthcare system.

    In Joe's words: "This is a big fucking deal."

    Never before has the Federal government so overstepped their boundaries and the constitution.

    Obama's "signature legislation" is going down, because it's unconstitutional. That's all.
