The left should have left everyone the hell alone and concentrated on the 10%-20% uninsured. Instead they ****ed it up for everyone and arrogantly thought they would be in power forever and would be able to fix any glitches. And, here we go again, with the MFA'rs wanting to **** it up for everyone.
There's no way to concentrate on the 10-20% insured with little fixes. That's what frustrates me with you guys on the right.
How do you do that? If the answer was easy, it would have been done without the ACA or something similar, or the radical solution of MFA. Fact is it's very, very difficult and requires systemic changes.
And the bigger problem with you guys on the right is the ACA is the way to fix healthcare AND leave the vast majority of the existing system in place, which it did. The people impacted were the small minority who got their insurance on the private market, and the poor who were most often previously insured, with Medicaid expansion and the ACA subsidies on the exchanges. That's largely why the GOP is so worthless. They can't improve the system without something that looks an awful lot like the ACA, which they've said for a decade is terrible, awful, etc. So they have nowhere to turn that's not MORE disruptive than the ACA, or that undoes the good ACA did.
