I figure it means I will be paying more taxes.

It means a heavy financial burden on the State, increased taxes, and a decline in the quality of healthcare. Socialism at it's finest!

to me it means a $100 increase in what I already pay for insurance and i'm still considered to be living in poverty, thanks obama

It means that the 40% of people who were uninsured because they were young and didn't need insurance will now be forced to buy a consumer product endorsed by the Federal Government.

In reality the statistics show 25% of Mississippians are already on Medicaid. Is that Socialism?
