It's been one year since the president signed the Affordable Care Act into law. The Summer of Hate is over and insurance companies can no longer discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions. What a ride it's been. Not to mention, the ACA is the largest deficit reducing bill in history. CBO estimates the Act will reduce the deficit more than $130 billion in the first ten years alone. And more than a trillion in the second decade.
CNN has a new poll out today measuring public reaction thus far. It found 50% of those polled like the new law or actually want it to do more. Fifty-percent either like it or want it to be more progressive! Like I said a few months ago. I really like this GOP obstructionism stuff.
