The major benefit with ACA is that it sets minimum requirements so people buying it benefit and not just the insurance companie$.
I don’t understand why Republicans don’t understand this. I think the only people that don’t like the ACA are:
- The health insurance industry and their management and stock holders
- People who are wealthy and can afford whatever
- People who are wealthy and want more tax breaks
- People who don’t have to pay for their health insurance
- Paid by company they work for
- Congress because US taxpayers pay for their insurance
- Congressmen who get lots of donations from the health care industry
- People who have never gotten sick or don’t have close friends or relatives that have gotten sick
But I thought congressmen were supposed to be working for US.
So why are they laughing so hard?
