    No one can total understand this da--bill,it is so wishie-washie,back and forth,parts are impossible to understand.The Sorro's committee wrote it this way so the American people would never totally understand it.Some of what we understand is: The bill will force insurance companies to raise rates,causing millions of Americans to drop their insurance forcing them on government control Medicaid insurance.This accomplishes two things,kill the insurance free market and force people onto government control insurance.They (government)will then have complete control of when and how much medical care you will get. There is so much more that is wrong,forcing people and companies to buy insurance(which they will not) thus,forcing more people onto government care.Seniors will be hurt the worst with cuts in Medicare and a government panel deciding who and at what age will get care. Go on the internet and read it,it is horrible.Sorry for the long answer,but it can not now or ever be explained in three sentences or less.

    It's a thousand pages long and you want it to be explained in three sentences or less? If you don't understand how totally absurd this is, there is absolutely no chance of anyone being able to explain it to you, no matter how many sentences you are willing to listen to.

    That is impossible. You should look at the Health Care Act (not Obama's care) and distill the summary you find into a few sentences. The purpose of it is to make health care accessible and affordable to everyone.

    America has a terrible system that fails in so many ways. what is trying to be done is to provide less restrictive coverage and provide more coverage to more Americans

    it is a right wing lie you are forced to buy health insurance you are just being offered a tax deduction if you do

    federal laws that force you to buy health insurance.

    the irs as the collection agency for government health care insurance.

    free or reduced rates for minorities, non participation by liberal supporters, sky high rates and substandard service for everyone else.

    Source(s): you wont be forced, just fined the amount of the coverage for not having it.
