[QUOTE="JD8, post: 3713514, member: 24"] I mean, for those on it, but for those paying for it? More hands out there for sure.... A more detailed.... and REFERENCED spoiler... :D [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377/forefront.20200406.93812/full/[/URL] But you DO hopefully understand that's not a majority? Considering us tax paying folks and all... The flip side to that is it blew up small insurance pools for those small businesses that actually provided healthcare. Think there were businesses previously that didn't offer it? Now that number has increased substantially. That's a cute way of robbing the rich and middle class and giving it to the poor. But let's say it's that simple. Why am I punished for living a healthier lifestyle? What are the top three causes of death in the United States YOY? Heart disease, Cancer, and chronic lung disease.... basically smoking. Why do I have to pay for their choices? I'll concede that the government works for those that are on handouts. So they probably think (per design) that the ACA is the greatest thing ever. However, those that work, raise a family, and succeed, pay the price. [/QUOTE]
