The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act extends coverage to uninsured citizens by providing tax credits for middle-class households to buy a policy and by expanding Medicaid for low-income people. It establishes health insurance markets in every state to make it easier for individuals and small businesses to buy coverage. It disallows denial of coverage because of preexisting conditions. Republicans hate it because they hate anything that helps people and because Obama made it happen.

Many medical doctors have quit their practices because HMOs dictate how patients should be treated. HMOs have created a medical dictatorship with the sole purpose of making money and healing the patient is on the back burner.

The last line Sal says is, "It makes a ton of sense." And it does, theoretically.
My question is, how much profit are these insurance companies making? And if their profits are exorbitantly high, with patient care being overseen by management (HMO, PPO), could that money be better spent on patient care?
A related question is: is patient care subsidiary to insurance company profit?
This is not a political question, but a human[e] one.

@Brendrizzle Most people who are uninsured are good, hard working people. They may not have the education you do, but that doesn't mean they should die like animals if something bad should happen to them.
I nominate Mr. S. Khan for the President of United States.

I'll bet that the comment section is going to turn into pages of disingenuous political arguments.
Good video, Sal.
