I noted with interest that Obamacare does not pay for male circumcision as it is considered "elective surgery." However, Obamacare pays for abortions. Does this mean an abortion is NOT an elective procedure? Just sayin'.

    My point is that government bureaucrats are deciding what specific medical procedures are covered and which aren't. In England, they call this the "Rationing Board."

    OMG. The sad thing is this now topic for political debate. We researched it when we were expecting our son and found no clear case for it, so we didn't elect to do it. Now this is flipping political issue.

    It's like the schools. We have political debate about what should be in the schools instead of people voting with their wallet.

    This takes away discourse from things like defending the country, protecting the environment, protecting individual liberties. Instead public discourse will have to work out the merits of particular medical procedures. It's frustrating. It's what I like LEAST about PPACA.
