Recycled from old humor about a "bad HMO". It might be funny except that Obamacare only made it possible for more Americans to get health care through health insurance companies and required more health screening procedures (such as colonoscopies) to be offered without copayments. The practice - and quality - of medicine is regulated and monitored by the states. It also prevented your being denied coverage for pre-existing conditions and allowed your child to age 26 to be covered on your policy. When Americans are surveyed about their opinion on various parts of Obamacare, over 90% like what Obamacare does. The mandate requiring people to participate is what has been attacked by anti-Obama zealots, although when it was originally proposed by Governor Romney of Massachusetts and approved by the conservative Heritage Foundation, no one seemed to object... Go figure.
