It uses the sledge hammer of federal power to force middle class families to hand their money over to private insurance corporations, but handles the extremely powerful insurance companies with the soft kid gloves by leaving regulation enforcement up to the states. The imbalance of power between middle class consumers and insurance companies produced by this bill is shocking.

With nothing done at all you >may< have been in the same spot...with state limitations dropped (Dereg) you very well could have seen a drop I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.
