Jura is right, poorer people are the only ones that benefit from this. I am all for giving to the poor, but many Americans simply do not work and take advantage of our government's generosity. In America, if you are poor the government will give you free money, food, and now healthcare. I think our healthcare does need some change to provide for those who are not able to work to afford healthcare. But to let the government take control of our money and say how it is used is against everything this country stands for. The upper and working class of America, the majority of Americans, will see a lower quality of healthcare and more taxes. Keep in mind that nobody in America is EVER denied the healthcare that they need. Obama has gone against the majority and passed this bill that fits HIS agenda, that's why so many Americans are angry.

A recent article in the New Yorker, that I agree with is for example, sh how McAllen in Texas USA is spending twice as much as El Paso County – not because people in McAllen are sicker and not because they are getting better care. They are simply using more treatments – treatments they don't really need; treatments that, in some cases, can actually do people harm by raising the risk of infection or medical error. And the problem is, this pattern is repeating itself across America. One Dartmouth study showed that you're no less likely to die from a heart attack and other ailments in a higher spending area than in a lower spending one. I guess that poorer people will be happy with Obama.

i guess it is

Hi... I think it is a big step for most of the Americans...

It depends on who you ask. The majority of Americans say it is not good, but the higher-ups in the Senate don't care what the people think. I say not good, but that is just an opinion.
