What a bizarre complaint. The evidence that the legislation won't let you keep your plan is that if your insurance or your employer make your plan worse for you, they don't get to pretend it's still the old, grandfathered plan?

Is the fact that "increas[ing] the percentage of costs patients must pay out of pocket", "significantly decreas[ing] the percentage that employers contribute to premiums", or "significantly increas[ing] deductibles or co-payments" was "standard practice in the industry" part of what people like about their health care plan?
