Lowest cost of Obamacare actually ~$1,000 a year for a family of four
If you're below the poverty line, then Obamacare is free. If you are an average American family of four, you'll most likely pay $4,000 a year, which is actually cheaper than the average amount you spend on health care without Obamacare.
CNS news is unreliable. Don't be idiots.

Healthcare is a very complicated issue, with many elements contributing to its inefficiencies. We need tort reform. Medical malpractice is a HUGE problem. Pathetic, suit-happy people and their legal buddies raise malpractice insurance rates and create a need for doctors to practice unnecessary defensive medicine, which is costly . . . very costly. Early detection for cancers may be a waste as well, as evidence is starting to show that many cases of cancer go away on their own. Health benefits are not taxed like income is. Let's say you get $1000 in dollars. You would pay a percentage of that in taxes, and thus be left with less than $1000 to spend on healthcare. However, if your employer offered you $1k in health benefits, it would all go to health benefits. The elderly are a problem. They consume the most healthcare, and more than they paid in as working people. And a bunch of other problems.
