  Horrible. This is the auto insurance standard where I'm forced to buy coverage but the insurance industry doesn't have to lower rates or offer competitive pricing. One of the reasons I don't owe a car now is that I can't afford the insurance...the solution involves a not for profit insurance company , not necessarily run by the government but not the same old lobbyist suspects who Hillary thinks are just "people". I say it again. Horrible. I can't wait for the day I can't afford my 200 dollar a week health care premium and I'm thrown in jail...

  just another obvious ploy to keep the campaign money flowing from the insurance lobby while pretending that "we care about the uninsured".

  Driving a car may be necessity to many but is still a choice. Staying alive is not.

  That's fine for the rich SOBs but what's the rest of the working Americans supposed to do?
  Tax credits aren't jack compared to the real costs of the insurance, and especially of the deductibles that'll be forced upon the "insured".
  The problem isn't getting whatever piddly percentage of the insurance costs the tax credit provides at the end of the year. The problem is what will the average working family supposed to pay the insurance premiums with the rest of the year?
  Screw the insurance companies, they've screwed the rest of us enough, The American people need adequate medical coverage!
