Get insured to help improve our country

It seems that those who attack the Affordable Care Act/Obamacare are either too wealthy to need it or simply haven't bothered to see how it can benefit them. After studying it, we signed on with a local co-op through healthcare.gov.

We will pay substantially less and continue to work with our physicians.

The dishonesty of the Republican “noise” machine concerning this law is stunning. Their complaints that people were “lied to” because they cannot keep worthless policies proves this.

The healthcare.gov website worked perfectly for us and comparing policies cost nothing. Please have younger family members who aren't covered do this.

This is so important. Nobody wants serious health problems, but they happen. Cooperation will bring down the upward spiral of health care costs and improve its quality for all. Don't be partisan - get insured and make this a better, healthier country.
