I love how you ignored my question. Why do you hate the middle class and want to take my money? Then you just posted you wanted to expand it. Why would you want to expand an overreaching government program that has been a big pile of shite for the middle class.

I don't want to keep the ACA as is - I want to expand it. Under your misunderstanding, you would claim I was for repeal (I'm not).
I'm willing to concede there is a minor faction of fringe lunatics like yourself included in that 93%. It would be dishonest to claim that number to be significant when discussing majority opinion.

The majority of Americans do not want the ACA repealed, as we find again and again.
Polls consistently say otherwise.

He supports stealing from you rather than taking the matter into his own hands and giving more of his own money.
His kind loves wealth distribution but won't give up the fancy house, car or vacation to help the people they supposedly care about. They should sacrifice until they can't because they "care" so much.
It's all an act.

I don't, and the slowing increase of premium growth (and greater access to care) is a net positive for the middle class. You're welcome.

Because it hasn't been a big pile of shite for the middle class, and because I think the richest country in the world can do more to ensure her citizens' health and access to quality health care.
Why do you want poor people to die in the streets? What kind of Christian are you, other than a shitty one?

bullshite!
I do not know a single working person who hasn't experienced wild increases in premiums/deductibles over the past three years. Self employed folks have it even worse. Several I know just paid the penalty.
I had to switch to the crappiest plan my employer offers to be able to keep my cost increase to 12% each over the past two years.

I see "insure" in just about every graph and stat. Therefore it is BS.
The definition of the word has become completely different than it is supposed to be, so any argument is based on a false premise.
DV.

He's just volume posting his delusions at this point.
the ACA is virtually the greatest legislative disaster of our time and no serious poll gives it, or iteration of it, anything near majority support.

A smaller bit than they would have without the ACA. Costs are still going up, but at a slower rate. Maybe if every state had expanded Medicaid we would see even slower growth (or even reduction) in costs, or if Republicans weren't obstructionist on improving the ACA. Who knows.

The American people don't like Obamacare
The left in a nutshell. Frick everybody else as long as the poor have insurance.
quote:
Support for the individual mandate in regular surveys over the last several years has run from a high of 44% in November 2014 to a low of 32% in October of the following year.
quote:
Only 12% of voters want to leave Obamacare alone, but 88% say it’s important for Congress and the president to have some sort of replacement program in place if they repeal it.
quote:
Eighty-two percent (82%) of Republicans and 64% of voters not affiliated with either major political party think it is more important to reduce the cost of health care. Just 42% of Democrats agree. Most Democrats (54%) say making sure that everyone has health insurance is more important.

What do you think "insure" is supposed to mean "post-ACA?"

The problem is the cost that should really matter are the cost of the people that are actually paying for their insurance and not having it subsidized. The middle class is getting raped.

That's straight up BS. You are taking money from me to subsidize Billy down the street. That is a fact of Obamacare that cannot be refuted.

Yes it has. The middle class is subsidizing this thing dude. Health care does not equal health insurance. We have by far the best health care in the world.

Nobody was dying in the streets pre ACA but your a hack so you can't be honest. Also I never stated I was a Christian but of course you would assume since I lean right I must be.

This thread is a joke. frick you and frick Obama. Ask the average middle class family how their medical premiums are. Their answer will not reflect what is shown here, guaranteed. Come back when you're in touch with the rest of the working society here in America. Until then, feel free to sit back and watch as Uncle Don continues to Make America Great Again!

Your premiums went up by hundreds of dollars if you're lucky, but you are wrong and thet really went down. Everyone who says they hate Obamacare really loves it.
