Obamacare is just full of surprises, as more Americans are beginning to realize now that the law has been fully implemented.

He wanted no part of the government’s so-called free health care. “It’s supposed to be a safety net program. It’s not supposed to be for someone who has assets who can pay the bill,” he said.
