Politics aside, these people are vulnerable and need help. We can disagree on how, but we all need to step back sometimes and realize that real people are going to be effected by this new healthcare law.

People were affected negatively by Obamacare.

When making decisions, especially types of decisions on a stage like this, emotion should not be the driving factor.

While it would be nice for everyone to have access to top notch care whenever they need it, I'm not willing to force the middle class to pay 3x as much for worse coverage to accomplish this.

People who want to use emotion as the sole driving argumentative factor for healthcare, are more than welcome to start donating money out of their own paychecks.

Wanting to affect positive change and use your own time and money is one thing. Wanting to affect change and expecting others to use their time and money for it is another.
