The standard tea bagger ignorant dumbass reply.
I don't know how anyone can be for or against the ACA, because we have not even come close to seeing how it is going to work. There are many provisions that I like and support about the ACA, and I do believe it is workable, but I have no clue if it will reduce costs, leave costs basically the same, or increase costs. Initially, the biggest problem I see with it is getting everyone signed up, and as it stands now, unless an uninsured individual has a vested interest in getting insurance, I don't think you are going to see people lining up to get on board right away.
As a person who took advantage of the high risk pool that has been available over the past two years, I am shocked that so few people took advantage of it. The rates were reasonable, and the coverage was reasonable, yet it seems that, for the most part, the only ones who took advantage were those who had extremely high medical costs. For me personally, having the insurance cost me much more than if I had gone without because despite having a pre-existing condition, I am only high risk, not high maintenance. All costs for preventative treatment for my health issues falls within my deductible.
Bottom line on the ACA is that it's going to take a couple of years before we have any clue how effective it will be and whether or not it will help reduce or at least stabilize costs.
