I do not agree with the ACA unless it's used only for employees from the Department of Education. Use the rest of the funding for law enforcement training.
@9K6P6JG1yr1Y
I don't like how it forces you to have it, if a person is poor enough they cant even afford to pay that
@93N5DMRWorking Family3yrs3Y
No, I support a universal health care system with out any private insurance options
@8W7YJH9Working Family4yrs4Y
i believe that our health care should be carried out the same way it is in Canada and the UK, all cost should come from a collective tax so that its cheaper per person
@8RSCVF2Working Family4yrs4Y
I have never used Obamacare therefore I do not know what they do nor how they dp it. Therefore I simply do not know.
@8NGX4PMWorking Family5yrs5Y
Yes, insurance coverage for all persons including Representatives and Senate.
@8N85X74Working Family5yrs5Y
Yes but there needs to be more coverage and options for the insured
@8MRW76XWorking Family5yrs5Y
No, but we do need a plan that will replace it and will improve on it.
@8LTFTTXWorking Family5yrs5Y
No, and I feel it should be free like canada is.
@8LQ9VQCWorking Family5yrs5Y
Don’t really understand this.
@8H7NBNNWorking Family5yrs5Y
No you should not be required to have insurance if you can't afford it and it should be free.
@8GMBV6VWorking Family5yrs5Y
I don't believe that healthcare should be in the picture at all. Everybody should have the same price to get a treatment, so that you know how much it will be before you get it.
@8GBB75QWorking Family5yrs5Y
I don't really have a stance on the question.
@8G8J7PKWorking Family5yrs5Y
I believe Healthcare should be affordable, not tied to your employer and should be a CHOICE.
@8G66JX2Working Family5yrs5Y
No, open the markets so insurers can compete across state lines and reduce costs and import pharmaceuticals from other countries.
@8F539GKWorking Family5yrs5Y
No, the cost of the program is still too costly for the average consumer
@8CDXKGPWorking Family5yrs5Y
Combination of ideas. There should be universal healthcare available, and private healthcare allowed to compete and have lower rates and low perscription costs. Everyone should have access and it shouldnt coat a family of 4 $600 a month or more PLUS copay and perscription costs that are very high. Wages don't allow for Americans to pay Big Pharma so much.
@8C95WF8Working Family5yrs5Y
We are the greatest nation in the world and should have free health care
@8LML5FJWorking Family5yrs5Y
I think we need a different and better system no one likes Obama care it has failed but with reconstruction and different plans for different people
