So tell me what will happen when we provide more people with health care? They will consume more health care. That will cause the demand for health care to go up. That will cause the supply and availablity of health care to go down. When demand is increased and supply is decreased price goes up. The government will have to really start recruiting doctors.

As it is now, if we let things stay the same, the cost of HC will continue to rise as it has been for a decade, way before "Obamacare". We will pay more and more money for less and less coverage.

So you start at the root cause of this increase, which is too many uninsured people. These people already seek healthcare, so having them insured is not going to cause the demand to go up. My point is we already pay for them, why not do it in a way that will decrease our own costs? Will also allow for more well paying jobs, with good benefits. Is everything in the bill good? Not in my opinion, there are things I dont like. However, I think the rewards outway the cons in this instance.
