the unaffordable care act is mussolini meets rube goldberg but still dangerous. people don't realize he writes the crisis is the result of previous government intervention. there has been no free market in health services for decades. people should be protesting to remove the federal government from health care, not to make the existing mountain of federal health bureaucracy even larger. our next call on our supreme court coverage day here is bay point, california. you're on the air. >> thank you. my concern as well. i'm generally in favor of the affordable care act or that there aren't provisions that require people -- require insurance providers to cover alternative health care chiropractor care, acupuncture and other kinds of treatment. the problem is that if people are going to be forced to pay for health care, they shouldn't be forced to pay for health care they don't want. i worked for a nonprofit corporation and advocate for people with chronic physical and mental disabilities since 1974, and the problem that they -- the problems they face is that the only
