I can't speak for the rich. I can only speak for me. I am not against lower middle class having health insurance. I am against the way it has been designed and administrated.
And the biggest issue is the cost. It's not the lower middle class or the poor that will pay for it. It's the middle class. And when the average takehome pay has dropped yearly, prices for food and basic living expenses have increased, now was not the time to add more burden.

Keep in mind the US is over $17trillion dollars in debt. The predicted cost of obamacare of 1 trillion has risen to 2.6 trillion. I realize that these numbers are speculative, but when does the federal government ever come in ontime and under budget?
