Obama campaigned about National Healthcare. He did not say it would be in the form of forced purchase of health insurance.
Those of us who already have insurance know what a rip off it can be. They go to great lengths to avoid actually paying any significant claims. I have "good" insurance and I still have a yearly deductible around $5000 that I'd have to pay for surgeries and long term care, then the insurance company will pay 80% and I still have to pay the other 20%. What it comes down to is, if I'm relatively healthy, the insurance cost is a waste of my money and it's only being used to supplement the lazy people who get it for free.
True national healthcare would mean you pay nothing.
