My point is not to coop the AC board into such. You can send me a private message. Sorry, I grew up in DC and have lived for over 20 years in NYC.

I didn't state that anyone who shared in this string was lying. I said that the examples trotted out into the media tend to be those who are lying. I specifically said state I'd like to see actual, legitimate examples in the media and those could be positive or negative. If you happen be an example of one, either positive or negative,then write a letter to the editor, the GOP, Dems, the White or something and be profiled. Then people will have real information and examples, instead of the stupid shrilling that is going on currently. I notice

There are some Americans that had their policies cancelled. Was that really the fault of the ACA, or just pernicious actions by insurance companies? Or is it pernicious behavior by many employers? You can't just look at the resulting numbers, you have to look at the process by which those numbers come about. Many others have access to insurance that didn't before. I personally know people that were making $2K or $3K too much to get Medicade, but whose employer didn't offer health insurance and they really couldn't afford the rates they were quoted. A few I know got sick, and were told to quit their job so they could get Medicade (and a couple did). Now they can at least get Medicaid or possibly catastrophic if the companies in their state and

You cannot make a change this big and not have some who effectively "lose." It's gonna happen, can't avoid it but it doesn't mean the thing is bad. There is no perfect legislation. It will need to be tweaked, but there are many for whom "tweaking" it means "making it unworkable."

Do I think the ACA is perfect? Heck no! But if it isn't well thought out, it partly the GOP to blame since they have worked so hard to derail it instead of truly trying to provide suggestions to actually make it work.

Again,just shrilly saying they are Liars does not help a discussion. Frankly, that doesn't help on either side of discussion, which tends to be my problem.

I think overall the people of Kentucky think Obamacare is a good think so far. At least their governor believes that they do.
