a lot of the new health care plan doesn't go into effect until 2014. The first things to go into effect so far are that insurance companies can't drop you anymore if you get sick, young people can stay on their parents insurance until they are 26, and sick children can't be denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition.

How old are you Doc? I thought poor people and those on disability could get Medicaid or at least get to be treated for free at clinics. At least it's that way here in Pennsylvania ... it might vary by state ...hopefully that will be changing

The new health plan doesn't do nearly enough. The democrats watered it down so much in an attempt to appease the republicans who turned around and opposed it anyway. After watching what the republicans have done the last couple years it will be a long long time before I ever vote for another. They have been very happy to see the country struggle just so they can gain political points. They put their party and power over the welfare of the entire country. They are scum.
