I have a friend of mine who works for the state government - nineteen years. Her paygrade has tripled in nineteen years, yet every year she makes less because her healthcare goes up.
Can't find a doctor? Well, that's new isn't it? We've always had this problem - if you live in a small town you cannot find a pediatric cardiologist local to you. I live in a town of 50k and the nearest hospital is three cities away - But that has nothing to do with Obamacare because the hospital was in the same exact place before Obamacare.
My wife works for a foot doctor who is the only foot doctor in our area in the largest healthcare network. This hasn't changed in the past eight years. If you want a foot doctor in the network and you live in Auburn, you have to drive to Citrus Heights. This hasn't changed because of Obamacare - it's always been this way.
The recent changes are making it harder to find to find specialized doctors - because more people than ever before have healthcare and we can't suddenly deploy fifty thousand pediatric cardiologists because it takes eight years plus to train them.
All you do is complain and whine.

You've been shown fact and have heard from others on this very forum with their stories and still don't believe, so why try to convince someone now that has me on ignore?
Is it because I know the truth and that conflicts with your bullshit?
Here's the facts about finding a doctor

Many of the new health insurance plans have limited networks. Doctors have to sign up to accept insurance offered on ObamaCare's marketplaces . Some of the low-cost and free plans have a very limited network and these in-network doctors could get hit with more patients than they can handle. However the law does combat this by funding health centers (especially in low-income areas), funding and training of new health care professionals, and providing incentives for doctors to practice underserved communities.

After four brain operations, Margaret Figueroa thought she was prepared for anything ? until she ran into ObamaCare.
?I?m frustrated with the system. I feel like I paid but I?m not getting what I paid for,? said Figueroa, 49, who broke down in tears while explaining her bureaucratic nightmare.
?It?s scary because this is America. I didn?t expect to go through this.?
Figueroa ? who has a neurological disorder ? said she enrolled in a new EmblemHealth insurance program in February as required under the Affordable Care Act. And that?s when her problems began.
After paying her premium, she received a temporary ID card. But when she went to order medication, the pharmacists said her name wasn?t in the system. And she said her doctors were not included in her new medical plan.
So here's your problem, you want me to keep posting the truth that there are problems with your stand on this or do you just want to agree?
And don't give me that shit about this was going on already, all these say it's because of Obamacare
