What's the impact of Obamacare for you (and your family)? Assuming it doesn't get defunded or delayed, of course...

I live in a state that's embracing Obamacare and it looks like I'm set for cheaper and/or better healthcare.

Not much else I can do to help, then.  Not sure what other possible context her remarks could have had, and it's not even the dumbest thing she's said.

I just enrolled in benefits for 2014.  Cost is $58 per paycheck for coverage for Princesca and I, which is a 2.1% increase over last year.  So basically no impact re: Obamacare.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

No. I don't think that's a battle I could have one if I am understanding correctly what you mean by insurance money.

More people in the US want to build a Death Star than "bought" health insurance?
