Here is a perfect analogy of the way I feel about Obamacare and the "universal" "Affordable" Healthcare Act:
Yes. It is a step. But I'd've rather they built stairs that are gonna last, made by carpenters from both sides, than rickedy stairs that will collapse in 10 years- slapped together just so we could say we were helping the community by installing stairs for everyone, and constructed just to pay back the carpenters who gave you deciding power in the first place.
(Leaving 30+ million Americans- including myself: who will opt out and pay the penalty as it is all I can "afford"- uncovered is not universal health coverage. And certainly not when it benefits the record breaking profitable machines that are insurance companies in the US)
