No, they aren't getting government help. They are getting healthcare. Which is what this law is all about.
My wife has a medical condition and must be covered by healthcare. Because it's a prior condition, the cost of healthcare is insane. She has to work to get healthcare. Now because of this law, she can get decent healthcare at a decent cost, and won't have to work. She isn't going to go on unemployment or food stamps, she just won't need to work.

Things didn't get bad under Bush. Things got horrible. Half the people on my street lost their houses. It doesn't get much worse than that.
Ten years and 85 billion is only the beginning of the solution. There is no simple fix for this. If McCain won years ago some of us would be bitching at McCain saying "Why isn't this fixed yet?".
