It benefits the insurance companies, the hospitals (who continue to overcharge...like $50 for a small paper cup to take your $20 tylenol), the medical labs (because the insurance companies force doctors to run unnecessary tests), and of course the pharmaceutical companies who charge us many times more than the rest of the world for the same medicines.
And don't forget about the Democrat and Republican politicians who are getting billions of dollars from the lobbyists for the insurance, hospital, and pharmaceutical industries.
They ALL benefit.
But the one thing that doesn't change?
The QUALITY of our health care.
If you have a shitty doctor now...you'll still have a shitty one later. And if you have a good doctor...you'll still have a good one.
And by the way...The CBO itself is saying that 30 MILLION people will still be uninsured with ObamaCare. So that part doesn't change at all.
If you don't believe me...just google it up.
Looks like a lot of people who are already outrageously rich (pharmaceutical companies, hospital industry, insurance industry, lobbyists, politicians) are about to get even richer off the backs of the middle class.
