Of course they are, I was just watching Carol on CNN and even the media are spreading the malarkey about how young people will be paying for we old folks. Really? Then why does our health insurance cost us in excess of $10,000 per year (and I don't even take drugs). Could it be that we are really paying for those young people who will not buy insurance but whom the hospitals MUST treat by law. I was in Hospital (waiting room) twice last year when I tore the meniscus in my left knee. The experience was such a f**king disaster that whe the right knee went I said to hell with it and stayed home

Mabe if Bonehead wants to repeal ACA he should let the hospitals off the hook as well, no more compulsory treatment. Oh yes while we are at it lets break up the wholesale racket in prescription drugs so that the corner drugstore can get its drugs direct. Instead there are maybe four wholesale companies who control the prices. Yes kiddees, that BS about Americans paying for all the drug research is pure horse hockey, instead we are lining the pockets of the wholesale drug dealers.
