Good question, and I don't think anyone right now knows the answer to it. Best guess? Covering pre-existing conditions will continue anyway because it is quite popular. Even evil Republicans would rather stay in power than roll back this new benefit. Side effect? Everyone is going to pay more for medical insurance to cover the diabeticss,etc

Interesting spin, I don't see how Congress and Obama come out ahead if the mandate fails. It would be a huge mess, and 100's millions wasted already. Also I read they never considered the constitutionality of this when the bill was written, not even Repubs. No Judiciary committee reviews. Congress needs to pay more attention to the constitution when writing laws. They are elite lawyers right?

Sometimes politics is more about winning the next election than actually accomplishing anything. And if Obama is re-elected on a groundswell of support because people think Republicans are going to take away their healthcare, it doesn't matter that Obamacare is a hodgepodge of conflicting rules that still need to be defined.

I will no longer give you an ounce of respect and I will fight your attacks with my own at every opportunity. You complaining about personal attacks is like Al Sharpton complaining about racism....hilarious rofllol .

Maybe one day you'll start posting without insults (doubtful) and I will respond in kind. Until then, I will fight your vile comments with my own and continue to give respect to those who deserve it.

And I'll probably do what I should have done a long time ago, and put you on IGNORE with the rest of the losers.
