Obamacare 2013: Obama's Legacy Tied To Health Care Reform That Bears His Name

Yes, nations with universal healthcare have the longest lifespans, but ACA is NOT universal healthcare.

health insurance ≠ medical treatment

Obama's healthcare legislation doesn't control costs and doesn't deliver medical treatment to everyone (not even those who think they're going to get it).  Insurance companies aren't required to cover anyone's preexisting condition gratis.    And between increased premium costs, deductibles and co-pays, ACA Unlikely to Stem Medical Bankruptcies

People who voted for Obama/Democrats voted to get affordable, quality medical treatment.  That was NOT a vote to protect and further enrich the insurance and pharmaceutical industries.  Voters didn't send Obama/Democrats into power to entrench the insurance industry as the gatekeepers to being able to get medical treatment.  Voters didn't send Obama and Democrats to Washington to continue tying insurance benefits to their employment.  Yet that's precisely what Obama and the DLC-controlled Democrats did.

Meet The New 1%: - Healthcare CEOs replace bankers as America's best paid:

Pity WallStreet's bankers. Once the highest-paid bosses in the land, they are now also-rans. The real money's in healthcare and drugs, according to the latest survey of executive pay.  One example is JoelGemunder, CEO Omnicare, who had a total pay package in 2010 worth $98 million.

ACA's nothing more than a massive giveaway to the health insurance industry.  It's one of the most corrupt pieces of legislation ever enacted by our government.

The health insurance industry provides no real service.  All it does is take money out of the system.  It's nothing more than a blood-sucking middleman.

Dr. MarciaAngell, a proponent of single payer universal health care, testifying before Congress as to the reason the system is in such a shambles:  

"It's set up to generate profits NOT to provide care.  To pay for care, we rely on hundreds of investor-owned insurance companies that profit by refusing coverage to the sickest patients and limiting services to the others.  They cream roughly 20% off the top of the premium dollar for profits and overhead.  Our method of delivering care's no better than our method of paying for it.  We provide much of the care in investor-owned health facilities that profit by providing too many services for the well-insured and too few for those who cannot pay.  Most doctors are paid fee-for-service which gives them a similar incentive to focus on profitable services, particularly specialists, who receive very high fees for expensive tests and procedures.  In sum, healthcare's for maximizing income and not maximizing health..."

And ACA does nothing to change that.
