As to the bolded part, who do you think is paying for those people right now when they go to the ER for all their health care needs? The ACA is not a good piece of legislature for many reasons, but it's not like it's adding a cost where there was none before.

I wish it were true. Unfortunately ER will never end & just like everything else, cost NEVER goes down

I don't understand why they didn't let med. insurance go like car insurance, ALL companies available in EVERY state. We had some states with only ONE insurance choice. Crazy....

The problem with the ACA was that the insurance companies got their hands in it. A "Medicare for all" type plan (with a load of Medicare reform), with an option for individuals to continue with their private insurance would have been best, but there was no money in it.

The policy was to make it fair. All people to get paid the same, and own the same stuff. Well since ALL got paid the same, everybody produced very little & the country was one of the poorest in the world. NO incentives, NO innovation, NOT GOOD!!!!! That's why my family came to this country.

Oh yes, the Govt. people & gangsters did just fine.

If I/you work for it, don't you deserve a Z??? or what ever.

Got to go
