Well, since there's no actionable penalty then I'd be interested in knowing from those who want to repeal "Obamacare", (officially known as The Affordable Health Care Act) which specific part of the law would you remove? If you agree with Romney then just reply "all" in your response. For others you can choose from the list below but please be specific with explanation as to why, for example "these new rules would cut into the insurance companies profits causing them to lower the CEO's and top executives salaries and multimillion dollar bonuses..."
Provides Coverage to Americans with Pre-existing Conditions.You may be eligible for health coverage under the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan.
You select the doctor: The new rules permit you to choose any available participating primary care provider as your doctor and to choose any available participating pediatrician as your child’s primary care doctor. No health plan barriers to OB-GYN services: The new rules also prohibit health plans from requiring a referral from a primary care provider before you can seek coverage for obstetrical or gynecological (OB-GYN) care from a participating OB-GYN specialist.
Access to out-of-network emergency room services: In the past, some health plans would limit payment for emergency room services provided outside of a plan’s preselected network of emergency health care providers. Or they would require you to get your plan’s prior approval for emergency care at hospitals outside its networks. This could mean financial hardship if you get sick or injured while away from home.
The new rules prevent health plans from requiring higher copayments or co-insurance for out-of-network emergency room services.
Keeps Young Adults Covered: If you are under 26, you may be eligible to be covered under your parent’s health plan.
Ends Pre-Existing Condition Exclusions for Children: Health plans can no longer limit or deny benefits to children under 19 due to a pre-existing condition.
Ends Arbitrary Withdrawals of Insurance Coverage: Insurers can no longer cancel your coverage just because you made an honest mistake.
Helps You Get the Most from Your Premium Dollars: Your premium dollars must be spent primarily on health care – not administrative costs.
Covers Preventive Care at No Cost to You: You may be eligible for recommended preventive health services. No copayment.
Guarantees Your Right to Appeal: You now have the right to ask that your plan reconsider its denial of payment.
Lifetime limits on most benefits are banned for all new health insurance plans.
Annual limits on your health benefits are now restricted and will be phased out by 2014
