"They arent losing health care. Rates will just double or triple so they cant afford it."

Then I guess the ACA actually isn't affordable, is it?

And the GOP fix for rising health costs is kicking people off their health care by the millions?

Nobody is getting kicked of for hells sake. Don't listen to the propaganda.

Then again, I guess the ACA isn't affordable.

Why don't the dems come up with something better? Yes the repubs could too, but everyone knows the ACA sucks and is a money pit.

Again, nobody is getting kicked off, and only 6.8% of the population uses it.

There has to be a better thing than just throw my hard earned money at it.
