One Year Later ACA is Popular and Agile

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.
