President Obama: “The main point I have for everyone watching right now is, you don’t punish me by not signing up for health care, you’re punishing yourself or your family if – in fact – there’s affordable health care to be had and subsidies and tax credits that allow you to have the peace of mind and security and regular check-ups and preventative care that would keep you healthier. That’s not a matter of trusting me, that’s a matter of looking for yourself and seeing if you can get the services.”
