I have never done a detailed study of the ACA. And we liberals were quite upset with Obama when he took single-payer universal healthcare off the table. He went with the ACA, because it was originally Republican idea and he thought that would make it easy to get through Congress. Boy was he fooled. After a year of stalling and screwing around, not one single Republican voted for it. It is a Basterdization of a good system Obama put forth only because he thought that would be the easiest thing to get through with the least amount of fighting. To we liberals, it was just a big payoff to health providers. But we know it is still better than just having to go out into the private market and get insurance, especially if you have a pre existing condition or are old, in which case, good luck. And with a private health provider you can never be sure they will honor their insurance. Watch the "Rainmaker". Medicare almost always pay for needed health care. We do know though, that the ACA has caused health premiums to come down (overall) and allowed close to 30 million people to get better health insurance at a lower price.
