This bill is a joke! It's gonna mess everything up for us. I can't believe they're actually trying to pass this crap. It's gonna make things so much worse for everyone. I can't even deal with this right now. It's just gonna make everything harder for us. This is ridiculous.

I don't like this bill. It could mean more out-of-pocket costs for me if I have to go to a freestanding emergency center. It's not fair.
