Actually, the insurance companies are probably going to lose a lot of money because of this. They will now have to insure undesirable people and will have to pay out on more claims. |

My thoughts exactly.
They'll have to insure all of those with 'pre-existing' conditions. Doesn't seem like a win to the Insurance companie!

i think the US does need more comprehensive care. And Canada needs a private mix like they do in Europe.
Having said that, doing it at a time when there is already a trillion and a half dollar deficit is foolish to say the least.
Obama has never seen an expenditure he doesnt like and its bankrupting the US |

i read a shocking stat today.. last year 68% of all bankruptcies were related to health care, and of those 78% had insurance!
so yes, this is a big win for the avg American.. |
