Healthcare act costs me more

In reply to “A vote for Romney is bad for health,” Mr. Prescott speaks of how hard financially it will be for someone with a diagnosis of breast cancer or MS.

Well, let me tell you that I was diagnosed with breast cancer one year before The Affordable Care Act was put in place and I can tell you that my financial obligation for medical bills was far less before The Affordable Care Act was put in place than after. It costs me more now than ever for medical coverage.

We need to keep the worthwhile aspects of the current health care program and gut the rest. It’s nothing but a huge tax burden as it is written now.
