Obama Care vs Republicans

[Adak]

I'm not sure how maternity care and breast screenings were paid for by the pool of the insured, in the past. However it was done, it should continue that same way, as much as possible, now.

But mental health? THAT's a big Big, BIG expense, that most companies don't even offer in their health insurance plans for their employees. Not to mention that mental health insurance was not mentioned previously by the Democrats, as a requirement for ACA approved health insurance.

Forcing that cost onto us now, is one more BIG price increase in people's health insurance. It won't be well accepted when we start getting the price hikes that must accompany this forced, extra coverage.

It's hard to accept a new coverage being forced onto us, when we have no idea how much that extra cost will be. And in fact, we have no idea what the cost of our current plans will be, because the characteristics of the pool for each plan that's offered, is still unknown.

It's like we never heard of running a small scale pilot program - what a concept!

International Franchise Association and U.S. Chamber of Commerce say only 1 in 12 small businesses will be helped by Obamacare.
