A big power grab is all it is.
How is it a power grab or hijacking your freedoms if you are currently among the nearly 200 million with employer-based insurance? By giving you the freedom NOT to have pre-existing conditions excluding or the freedom NOT to go bankrupt as a result of a medical crisis AND the freedom to have free preventive care?

Exactly how is the government taking control of your choices?

A comprehensive approach was needed. not only to address the 30+ million currently uninsured, but address the deficiencies and the existing restrictions for those with insurance and to address the rising costs.
