"The entire ACA is nothing more than a sell out to the health INSURANCE industry" I won't go quite that far, but I would like it to be replaced by a single payer. I'm glad to hear about the NSA. The more they know, the less they know. Informational overload keeps them stupid.

The entire ACA is nothing more than a sell out to the health INSURANCE industry and a back door for the NSA. yup, they only have 85% of the market. The 15% that don't have insurance are not only having a negative impact on their bottom line, they are an untapped market. What better way to get them to pay then to have the government mandate their coverage. Congressional members and their employees didn't write the ACA. Insurance lobbyists did. That's why none of the politicians knew what was in it before they passed it. And since this will always be part of the discussion, the lobbyists and insurance companies are certainly slimy, but the politicians that adopted the ACA and passed it are idiots who have betrayed their constituents. Once again, our politicians have sold out.
