People's health should NOT be a political football!

People are entitled to healthcare and the GOP as we know are using this as a political football to deny millions healthcare coverage.

The more we tell good stories of how the ACA has helped people the better to counteract this game playing. Why don't Republican's dig into their pocket to pay people's health bills?

No, the Republicans are happy that people die through lack of coverage.

The Republican Party has gone over the edge into nihilism. They hate everyone but themselves, they hate government, they hate government workers, they hate the New Deal, the war on poverty, the civil rights act, and everything Obama proposes. They want America all to themselves and they want to disenfranchise everyone else. Even though most of them will benefit down the road from Obamacare, they would rather have a dysfunctional, outrageously expensive health care system than to have the Democrats succeed at anything.
