Congress = FAIL

Fix it before 2018 or suffer the consequences, that is meant for both parties. No excuses

ACA does not need to be fixed.

It is working just fine now.

Wrong, but you probably can't afford the professional help.

ACA works fine.

ACA will be fine for the next 100 years.

I think it could be a lot better, it is still a system that allows the corrupt insurance industry far too much power.

At the least, it should be amended to allow the government to negotiate drug prices with Big Pharma as in other countries who pay a fraction for the same drugs, and to eliminate the exemption from federal anti-trust that the healthcare insurance industry enjoys.

But really we should just expand Medicare to all citizens, period. Removing healthcare insurance from employment will allow our industries to compete on more equal footing on a global scale; it will allow employees to bargain for better wages absent the fear of job loss = insurance loss; it will allow meaningful controls on healthcare costs and reduce significantly the numbers of people who become seriously ill due to lack of preventive/wellness care - thus reducing expenditures as well.

We are really very stupid for being the only developed nation that doesn't have universal healthcare. We are being played by the shareholders & CEOs of the insurance industry.

That was very scary if they did pass such a piece of junk bill. What a relief..

They did pass a junk bill it is called Obamacare, which you far left drones support without question.

No Kosh, there are many things that need to be fixed..But the most important thing is that there is not a fine anymore if you don't buy insurance..

Anything that damages the federal government is a good thing…

On Friday 3/24/2017 the GOP learned a shocking revelation --

ACA like OASDI and Medicare is here to stay. They are each the law of the land.

I think the moron who is most to blame for the false expectations otherwise is Boehner. He wasted all that time with his token repeals while Harry Reid held the ship of state to the right course.

And now when the voting is for real, Ryan steps on his own d!ck with his plan for tax rebates to the rich in Trumpcare.

I cannot tell who is more stupid at this point -- Boehner or Ryan.

It is too close to call.

McConnell was smart to stay completely out of this fray.

Kentucky boyz are smart enough to stay out of bar fights that they cannot win.
