Yes. Because it's a Republican idea.
That's called Democracy. The party who has control gets to pick and choose what they want.
The public was against it? Sure sure. You know, because of the death panels. The smear campaign went on for two years before it became a bill.
So Obamacare is bad and Romeny is fine. Why aren't they fighting Romneycare?
So they were made at Obama so they revolted? Fucking childish. The Republican party is pissed because they lost TWICE to a black man who had never accomplished anything.
Seems to me the only people who hate Obamacare are the Republicans on this board.
I support this because we need something and Obamacare is better than what we had.
Some people will come out ahead, others will pay more. All of us were going to more NO MATTER WHAT so that's still a win.
I really hope so. It will prove exactly how petty the Republican party has become - The Republican party is going to spend years fighting something they created (Romneycare) that has made our healthcare better. If they do repeal this law it will be a huge loss - years and billions wasted only to start from square one all over again.

Obamacare isn't better. The CBO has debunked all that. And the CBO is non-partisan, and their findings seem very logical, so no one is really disputing it. Less jobs, no improvement to how many people are insured, and higher costs.
Not everyone is Republican, I wouldn't qualify myself as Republican although Obama (whom I voted for twice), is certainly pushing me in that direction with his incompetence. A lot of people on this board are likely the same, but got fucked over by Obamacare. If we look at the replies on this board, it seems more people got fucked over by Obamacare than benefitted from it (maybe it's a telling sign).
Democrats are distancing themselves from Obamacare. You don't seem to want to acknowledge that. And the first part of your reply where you said people who dont read bills should go to jail - when I mentioned that Democrats controlled everything and forced it thru, your reply was "thats how democracy works" - so you went from A. "they should go to jail for not reading bills" to B. "this is how democracy works." The reality is you are very partisan, you hate Republicans and don't want to face the facts, or you are so personally invested in the Obamacare situation because of your benefits, you will defend it at any cost even if its illogical where in one moment you say people should go to jail for not reading the bills, to then saying in the next moment that it's how Democracy works and its perfectly OK.
