Lets all compare/contrast Romneycare & Obamacare

So was Mass worse off after Romneycare? Obamacare is the same as Romneycare. Romney saw an improvement in unemployment when he left office. I am against the bill for one reason and one reason only. It uses the IRS to force me to buy something. I don't know a lot about Obamacare. There are a lot of people who claim to know a lot. I do know this, good ole Texas insurance exchange prices are lower than expected. So go ahead Mr Cruz. Rally against insurance reform that will see more people afford insurance. Like I said, this is going to make the GOP who appose this look very bad.

I oppose it because it's TOO convoluted, too much and too fast.

"Socialized medicine leads to scarcity." - Senator Ted Cruz

Romneycare Falters in Massachusetts

“What we’ve seen over the last couple of years is that premiums are growing faster than inflation and at the same time, the quality of the benefit is declining,” said Aron Boros, whose state agency, the Center for Health Information and Analysis, published the report. “So you’re not only paying more, you’re getting less.”

In other words, Romneycare isn’t causing the increasing cost-quality mismatch; it’s simply letting that mismatch fester by not addressing the core problems bankrupting our health care system. As for Obamacare, while some of its provisions will increase costs directly by expanding access and defining essential benefits, the bigger problem is that the law doesn’t even try to address the real areas that need reform.

A recent report discovered that, should Mitt Romney earn the presidential election, American households might pay twice as much for healthcare as they would under the Obama Administration's Affordable Care Act.

Never mind, I found it.
Study was done by Families USA which was founded by an associate of the Clintons.
Very non-partisan...

Wow, looks like Families USA received a million dollar grant on Oct. 1 from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to find and tell pro-Obamacare stories.
They obviously had no hidden interest in re-electing BHO.
