I was not talking about those can't pay out of pocket for routine costs. I am talking about those that could afford it and used their freedom of CHOICE to do it.

So now people who made a responsible fiscal CHOICE to structure their insurance in that manner are now paying thousands of dollars annually for a service they do not want. You are ok with that? Having middle income people pay thousands more annually is not the cost effective way to do it.

I know quite a few people in that boat and those that did suffer major medical issues were not dropped. Since you made the argument it is incumbent upon YOU to prove it with legitimate links and stats. My wife was in that category and she was not dropped for her issues. And like many, many people we make just a little too much to get a subsidy, this law needs to be repealed.

Three of the people I know are small business owners. 2 of them are not following thru on their plans to hire another worker or two and the other laid off one worker because of this bill and talk of increased min wage.

I thought you self described liberals were all about choice? Hell, I am more liberal than you could ever hope to be, from abortion to government mandates, I firmly believe in freedom of choice in ALL areas, not just abortion.
