Heck the cholesterol and blood pressure screenings can prolong your life...
getting the proper medication for hypertension is very very important.

Medication that will likely be critical to help one recover from the Obamacare enrollment process, or after one sees the bill for January premium.

To you they are not, to someone making $3-400 a week before taxes, yeah they are.

I'm not looking at this with the ACA needs to go perspective. I'm feeling like Barbara stated that single payer is making more and more sense when you realize that the ACA does not fix many problems.

Single payer has always made more sense than ACA or any other silly bullshit we have tried.........in the name of avoiding single payer. The only problem we have is that this nation is full of nippleheads who believe every bit of the lies that the insurance industry and their congressional/media sycophants feed them.

We don't need the health insurance industry at all. They are nothing but parasites.

Well put Dave. The ACA is just the first baby step in the right direction.

That's how it was sold to the left by President Obama. All the pissant right can remember is, "If you like your shitty plan, you can keep it."
