cumulative effect which is, people may opt to just wait and see rather than taking a risk. martha: it is pretty ironic after all of this, we find ourselves in a situation where we re sort of at the wishful good graces of insurance companies. when you file something, are they going to say, no way, you don t have insurance? are they going to sort of let you continue your policy or have a policy what you haven t paid for yet. this is precarious situation. i want to play a sound bite from over the weekend on fox news sunday this is interesting big picture take how we got here from george will. let s take a look. if he had told the truth about the law, about keeping your doctor and your health care, he probably wouldn t have been elected in 2012. second, he would be better off today if in 2012 the chief justice voted other way and struck down the law. it wouldn t be such a burden on this presidency. martha: that is the question, you know. if the president had acted in a less political w
et cetera, do not go to the core of the law. if not that, what is the core of the law? by now at it seems to me fair to say three things. first, if he told the truth about the law, about keeping your doctor and your health care, you probably wouldn t have been elected in 2012. second, he d be better off today if in 2012 the chief justice had voted the other way and struck down the law. wouldn t be such a burden on this presidency. buttoned buttoned that we have now added to incompetence and dishonesty, make it up fairness when he says if you had health insurance and it was cancelled, you re preferred. if you didn t, you can still be punished by the government for not getting it. the people just think it s unfair. it s pretty bleak. also creating sort of chaotic, and when it comes to health care, which is something that is personal to every person to have this since of chaos to not know
