Ugh...Politics

So now that the new healthcare reform has passed, I am nothing but confused. I don't pay enough attention to politics to really understand what is going on or to have a fact-based opinion. But, none-the-less, I do have an opinion.
See, I am completely aware of the fact that this country needs something new--what we have now is just not working. I'm not sure how I feel about paying for someone else's healthcare. But to hear people say that not everyone deserves healthcare is heartbreaking.
I think that they should have thought this through a little bit more and maybe come up with something really good. Obviously, not every one is going to be happy with it. Especially those who have always been anti-Obama.
It seems like the more and more I read about this, like people's opinions and such, the more I think maybe this is not such a good idea.
But...
I know what it's like to be really sick and be absolutely terrified to go to the doctor because you know you can't afford it. I think everyone deserves health care. Everyone* deserves to go to the doctor if they are sick. I don't like the idea of more illegal immigrants coming here and more illegal immigrants getting healthcare that I* am paying for.
I don't know, I realize now that this post is nothing but rambling. But I have absolutely no idea how I feel about this. I guess we will just have to wait it out and see. And for those people who are 100% anti this bill, well, I think no one will know what it's really like until we try it.
Okay, enough rambling.
