42. Not with everyone. A young woman who works in a store near
my home in New Hampshire lives in Massachusetts. Her husband is an insurance broker and they can't afford to buy health insurance. She worries about paying the penalty. Other people have told me there has been little done to control the escalation of premiums and while people are grateful not to be dying on the street, it's not like it's truly affordable. I'm afraid that's what will happen with the current plan since there appear to be many weasel clauses big insurance can work around. (Weasel clause #1 - kids with pre-existing conditions. Apparently they located a shred of humanity and backed down on that one.) I would hope Democrats could do much, much better than Romneycare.
