So, the Obamacare PPACA looks like it may make you fill out all the personal information BEFORE you can see the insurance rates. That tells me they don't want you to see the rates because they are so high. If 50 million people are uninsured today, mainly because insurance is too expensive, why is it better to make coverage even costlier?
And, you can't buy out of state insurance across state lines; and military dependents aren't covered by Tricare to age 26. And, the system just gets slower and slower every day. Go figure. People should be fired - throw the bums out! ObamaCare is one of the best reasons to vote Libertarianism in the next election.
