regardless of how you feel about it, or if it might be repealed:
if/when the affordable care act is in full swing will the pdga reduce or eliminate the non member fee for participating in their events?
i ask because every time a lowly peasant like myself asks about this extra kick up to the masters, the reply i get is always the same: insurance. so with every citizen being forced to obtain their own insurance will this fee be no more, reduced, or will they come up with another rhetorical answer?

It may be two different kind of insurances. Assuming what the PDGA does is cover their a$$, that's probably liability insurance. Obamacare is health ins. Short answer, it won't go away and it'll may go up. They might even say it's going up because of Obamacare.
Let's say you get hurt at Flatrocks stepping in a gopher hole that's been there since the course was installed. It's a LDGA sponsored event, PDGA tier C. You use Obamacare to cover yourself at the hospital, then sue the bastages that negligently didn't fill in a hole they knew about for years, even though other people like Powder got hurt in the same hole. Anyone w/liability insurance (city, PDGA, maybe the club) will use that to represent them in the lawsuit.
