These Americans Hated the Health Law. Until the Idea of Repeal Sank In.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

DOYLESTOWN, Pa. — Five years ago, the Affordable Care Act had yet to begin its expansion of health insurance to millions of Americans, but Jeff Brahin was already stewing about it.

“It’s going to cost a fortune,” he said in an interview at the time.

This week, as Republican efforts to repeal the law known as Obamacare appeared all but dead, Mr. Brahin, a 58-year-old lawyer and self-described fiscal hawk, said his feelings had evolved.

“As much as I was against it,” he said, “at this point I’m against the repeal.”

“Now that you’ve insured an additional 20 million people, you can’t just take the insurance away from these people,” he added. “It’s just not the right thing to do.”

As Mr. Brahin goes, so goes the nation.

3. They dont like a black man getting credit and worst of all

they perceived the law as a black man telling them what to do.

Every problem we have, with them and trump and putin and so on, is race related.

7. I complained about the ACA over the years as problems with it arose but

I also knew it was better than NOTHING! I also knew it was the same as "Obamacare". Perhaps voters need to read something once in a while and watch something other than Fox Ruse.

What I am really, really, really pissed off about is that I will have to suffer from their stupidity (I will lose my ACA and desperately need it).

8. People feeling like this means nothing.

The only opinions that count are those of the 52 repub Senators. They hold the keys to the kingdom for better or worse.
