Its muddying the waters to get $500 million a year from the US tax payer and provide for profit abortions.

That may be true, but it's often the only health care option for many women at all. Planned Parenthood is one of the most effective methods to decrease abortion, for one. The ramifications when Planned Parenthoods are closed are devastating for people in the area.

Sanders Medicare for all sounds like true universal health care.

I tried to sign up for Obama care to see if it was as easy as he claimed as was denied

**** Obama care

Both Clinton and Sanders seem to want to improve Obamacare (which has helped a lot of Americans get coverage already). I think they are on the right track. The big problem that the ACA has right now, is Republican governors who block Medicaid for their citizens out of spite.

Obama care is not universal.

Yes, that's basically what I talked about in my post. The Medicaid gap is a real problem.

If I was black, or hispanic, I would have gotten it. They discriminated against me because I am of caucasian ethnicity and a pre existing condition.

So Obama care is a fraud.

Tell us more about your experience. What did you do? What did they say? Do you have insurance currently?

No I don't have insurance.

That sucks. So did they reject you because of a pre-existing condition? I thought Obamacare eliminated that in 2014.

They said I had to go apply to Medicare. Yea right

You don't want to apply for Medicare?

That would mean that you do not make enough money to be required to purchase private health insurance on an exchange, and that you qualify for state-subsidized health care through Medicaid. That is actually a more cost-efficient option for you.

Yea and much more difficult to get and cost me way more. Medicare would cost me $200 a month.

Obamacare let me down, like many others.

200$ per months for health care doesn't sound bad....

Obama care it's free for my income level...so they discriminated against me.

Well, no one ever said that Obamacare was free health care...so if you were expecting that of course you'd be let down.

Are you worse off because of Obamacare than you were before though? And if so, how?

I know many people including friends who have it free. They are minorities. Live at home and make pretty good money. And have no bills.

The question is, would your income level be covered by Medicaid according to Obamacare, if the state you are in didn't choose to opt out?

I got Medicare info. They wanted $234.00.

That's outrageous considering Obamacare is better health care and cheaper.

We need one health care. Not 40 different versions of this bullshit.
