I think it will work for the better for the States too, I feel people are just complaining about the unknown and have really bit into the line about "socialized medicine." It's ridiculous. If you're wealthy, you have nothing to worry about, really. If you're poor, you just have to pay a subsidized premium to finally receive insurance. And what's the difference if you tax that amount or fine people, it's just a matter of semantics. People need to relax and realize that people receiving medical coverage is a wonderful thing and outweighs the initial shock of "we have to pay for something."
