Fun fact: it isn't as bad as some people make it seem, but guess what? +It does nothing beneficial to the individual.

Meanwhile there is what amounts to no price controls, an actual ban on +the formation of State run healthcare (until 2017, and then only at +the discretion of the HHS secretary), and token (unfunded) support for +the formation of healthcare cooperatives. There are some taxes on +large drug makers, but the research required by the FDA for drug +approval is tax deductible (and so the larger drug makers can avoid +most of the new taxes, har). And... an excise tax on overly fancy +healthcare plans... more or less, a nice bill that, if it manages to +not be overturned by 2018, will do absolutely nothing one way or the +other.
