You know how much are insurance premiums in Massachusetts are? Even for those working for a corporation?

What will happen very soon is that businesses, including corporations, will start dropping subsidized insurance coverage as everyone, according to law, will need to have insurance anyways. Will now buy our own insurance which will be very non-cheap service and part of which will be a subsidy for everyone else who does not have one (the Massachusetts way).

The biggest problem, however, will be shortage of doctors. Many doctors will soon leave business especially those close to retirement who already have enough money saved. I will guarantee many of your strip-mall physicians will soon close suite and eventually disappear. My own physician, who in fact for the past 3 years does not take HMO, will definitely leave business. I guess Obama knows a good place to get doctors; very soon a doctor will become an un-popular profession and with a $200,000 education - a joke. In any case we are heading for a huge shortage even if the rate at the number of doctors entering profession will remain the same. People will start going to their physicians or hospitals for finger cuts and to treat a small temperature. No physician in their right mind will every hold a private business for that unless properly compensated. And the hospital lines... will wait forever.
