ObamaCare

It used to be called RomneyCare until FoxNewsified it into "ObamaCare"
 
That doesnt help me. I thought Fox News was all right wing and everything. So why would they change it?

p.s. I am really behind on politics
 
It is a nickname of the Affordable Healthcare Act that the Supreme Court ruled on today. Romneycare is the nickname for the healthcare laws enacted under Romney in Massachusetts. Sometimes people get caught defending or attacking things that are similar to both plans according to their partisan bias.
 
I thought you were kidding, Zoom. With all the media coverage and use of "Obamacare" I assumed you were being sarcastic.
 
death panels, anyone?

It seems like death panels have to happen. I didn't follow the death panel thing close enough so maybe my idea of what is meant by "death panel" is wrong. But there are lifesaving procedures that we do not have the resources to give to everyone, somewhere in the system, the decision has to be made who gets covered and who doesn't. That's not new, health insurance companies should already have death panels or death algorithms to decide these things.
