Steve Jobs (Apple) is back!

About a year after his liver transplant, he's back in control (at least visibly). Could he have done this recovery with Obamacare and no private wealth?

At 54, he probably would have been considered expendable by whatever government panel needed to make the decision, assuming of course that while he was waiting during the application process, he hadn't become too ill to survive the operation. That happens even now with people on gov't care. As a private businessman, at least he didn't have to worry about losing his job due to his disability.

Still, we all know, that rich guys even under socialism have other options (see Finland or England). Even under Obamacare, he would have gone to the front of the line.
