ObamaCare would encompass almost everybody. Its a complete reordering of the healthcare system. Similar to what the Massachusetts healthcare plan does to Massachusetts citizens. Also, ObamaCare is modeled around the Massachusetts healthcare plan. So what happens in Massachusetts is a big indicator of what will happen at the national level, only worse (Massachusetts, per capita, is far richer).

That was out the window as soon as Obama took office and could then ignore the people that went door to door to get him elected. Medicare has been around a long time with no price controls.
