Unfortunately, this guy is paying the same for his Obamacare as is the guy in downtown Boston. Same syx, same history, same everything, but mr rural can’t get to timely care, mr downtown is in the cath lab before an hour goes by.

Sadly, he chose not to follow his doctor's advice.
Ironically, the system worked perfectly that time and he thought, naively, that our healthcare system would never fail him...or anybody living in America!
