If it is the price of the medication it isn't Obamacare so much as it is pharmaceutical companies wanting to rape you and reap their 1000% profit margins.

As I said when it Obamacare first passed, the problem with it is that it does nothing to actually lower the cost of healthcare. It is just a health insurance bill.

That said, I am the opposite side of the coin. Having a pre-existing condition (asthma) I was never able to buy decent health insurance. Now I can and I can get my prescriptions filled at local pharmacies instead of having to order them online. I have much better coverage and convenience and am spending about the same as I was before when I was paying for most of my care out of pocket.
I'm paying more for much less coverage ... you do realize that congress and Obama exempted themselves from affordable care correct?
