I Love Obamacare

I love Obamacare. How about you? My granddaughter has epilepsy and cannot be denied coverage. My husband has had a kidney transplant and medications that would cost thousands of dollars a month are covered and we cannot be denied coverage because of pre-existing conditions. I love it that millions of people who once could not afford healthcare or who were turned down for coverage now have healthcare coverage. Yet, many right wing "news" sources continue to tell their viewers outright lies about Ocare. And amazingly, the people believe the lies.

This article in Daily Kos by Joan McCarter tells ways that Obamacare is working.  http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/09/30/1333217/-Seven-ways-Obamacare-is-working#

More people have coverage; that coverage is more affordable. Total healthcare costs are rising at the lowest rate in history. People's physical and mental health are improving.  Ocare is helping to reduce the deficit. What's not to like about that? Yet the right wing continues to tell people about death panels and other nonsense to scare and confuse them.  Please help spread the word that Obamacare is working and encourage Medicaid expansion in states that have not done so yet. Peoples' lives depend on access to affordable healthcare coverage. http://obamacarefacts.com/obamacares-medicaid-expansion.php
