The two biggest cons in nobamacare:

1. You get a policy with a monthly premium of, say, $500. But you’re deductible is $10,000. You, in effect, don’t have insurance.

2. The number of people in Medicaid will explode, just like the number of people on food stamps. Who pays for this?

Don't confuse insurance (what that describes) and pre-paid healthcare.

The big problem is that you can expand food stamps by printing more cards, but expanding Medicaid isn’t that easy. It’s already a system that barely functions due to the reverse incentive its reimbursement policy produces. Adding hundreds of thousands of new patients to a system that can barely treat the ones it has will be a disaster.
