What, in your opinion, will be the impact of ObamaCare on the medical industry?
Really, not too much of anything. The whole point was to make sure that there was a baseline standard of care that was open to the public. That wasn't done, so we are still at the mercy of private healthcare providers whose bottom line is profits. We live in a nation where it is the law, that we pay taxes for common good of country at large...or so they say. If that is true, our tax dollars should be used handling public priorities and research into new technologies that make our quality of life better. Private industry is not concerned with improving the standard of living.
Doesn't matter, here in the United Corporations of America, we do not have heathcare at all, what we have is a terrific wealthcare system, and all too poor to participate in it were just unlucky to have been the slave class to the wealthcare class.
In more civilized nations Like the United Kingdom, or Germany, a person of any class with cystic fibrosis has ten to twenty years longer life span than do such unfortunate individuals here, regardless of their place in our caste system.

I constantly have people insisting to me and my hubpages followers that any person capable of curing any one of today's supposedly "incurable" diseases would be either wealthy and in very high demand or dead. Basically, the popular "belief" is if a person such as...

I have been listening to how the government has a billion dollars for getting people to sign up for the Affordable Healthcare Act. Would that money have been better spent training more doctors and building new hospitals? New Jersey has closed how many community hospitals in the last few...
