I guess that according to the Republicans, all the young people that are now benefiting from "Obamacare" don't have a right to life and they'll make sure that healthcare will be taken away from them. Only fetuses have a right to life.

Great that people are starting to wake up to the advantages of Obamacare, but there will always be die-hard ignoramouses who refuse to consider the plan.

But also disturbing is the growth of income inequality. I guess one step at a time.
