...different versions? Okay so first I hear that there is going to be affordable health care/insurance or something, then I hear that its going to be like government enforced, a friend said its going to be like car insurance and they are going to force us to buy health insurance or something...that doesnt sound right.
What is it really, and how is it suppose to work? I work 12-16 hour days, only get 2 days off a month on minimum wage, and constantly have to fight for my over time from the company I work for (Securitas) Even on holidays they try to pay me the overtime instead of the holiday pay which would have been more. Right now I am barely scraping by helping my mom support the family and a few people we've taken in. We have 8 people living in a 2 bedroom house now because a few are friends who have become homeless, we even have a couple living in a work shop in the back yard of where we rent. I CANNOT afford most insurance, or pay cuts, if my pay gets cut even more Im going to be the one looking for a place to live.
I do want medical because I've been having medical problems such as painful migraines, ear bleeds, nose bleeds, black outs, dizziness etc. Im only 24 and I cant afford to go to a doctor, last time I went to a free clinic I got charged 200 dollars for medication that didnt even work. Still dont know how that happened, I thought free clinics were suppose to help or something.
Please explain what this is, I really want to know. And dont go off in rants how horrible it is, just give me the facts please.
