Whew! I'm so thrilled at this news! While the Affordable Care Act is not perfect, I believe that it's a step closer to ensuring all Americans are covered, which should be a humanitarian and economic goal for all of us. I know that the individual mandate is controversial, but I see it as both a matter of personal responsibility and a realistic way to lower health insurance premiums for everyone.

As many people have already pointed out, folks without health insurance still get care when they need it - in the form of Emergency Room visits that are ultimately paid by the rest of us anyway.
