Letter to the Editor: Cannot be any worse

I am not sure how the Affordable Care and Patient Protection Act (“Obamacare”) will pan out, but I feel sure it cannot be any worse than what we have now. One aspect of it appeals to me. The yahoos who would rather make payments on an expensive toy (bass boat, motorcycle, etc.) than buy health insurance will be forced to get insurance or pay a penalty.

I don’t know how others feel about it, but I am tired of having to pay for their medical care through higher insurance costs.

Former Gov. Mitt Romney must feel a bit awkward having to run against a plan that is based his own plan in Massachusetts.
