There is more to know...
50 states have chosen to "Opt Out" of the Affordable Health Care option in their states, the majority of those states are what are commonly called "Red States". This means that the state has chosen not to chose a pool of low cost insurance options for you to chose from, as well as those on Medicare who would have been given significantly higher coverage, as well as more choices as to who, what, and where your care is coming from. Not to mention the coverage options. This means the Federal Government will have to do it, and there will not be as much given to those who have lower means, retirees, those with pre-existing conditions, and small businesses.
Take a look at what this is doing....http://ara.typepad.com/blog/2012/07/southern-governors-buck-medicaid-expansion-will-leave-poor-uninsured.html

Get educated... the people working on health care reform and trying to make sure everyone has access to care don't have time to do commercials and commentaries, but the other half do. Know what the Affordable Health Care Act is, look at what the "Red" side is doing for our predecessors, my mom... your mom... your grandparents! They don't want to include them... oh, yes Social Security and Medicare is putting us in debt, it's not the war, or the fact that multi-million dollar corporations don't have to pay taxes! Go on Hulu, watch some documentaries about the government by a bipartisan film maker, read that first link, investigate then write to your congressmen. This isn't just them... people that aren't us, this is going to be us. Educate yourself, you don't have to agree with me. But at least know what is really happening!
