Go on, keep lying to yourselves that Repeal is a great political move.


The law is a failure. You even highlight a point saying that premiums will double by 2026. This law has only been in place for a few years and premiums have double for some multiple times already. It hasn't done anything that was promised besides make people with a job pay for the ones without a job.

Why do you want to keep it, surely we can come up with something better than this???

It isn't. If you believe otherwise you're misinterpreting the data or you're being lied to. Probably the latter.

Some, sure. On average, it's produced a slowing in premium growth as predicted.

20M new people with insurance, as promised. :roll eyes:

There's nothing in the real world that's better that can pass Congress. Covering pre-existing conditions has only 2 solutions - a mandate or money. Republicans roundly denounced both options.
