The Affordable Care Act touches the lives of nearly every American. It ensures no one can be denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition. It also bans lifetime limits on insurance coverage.https://www.tampabay.com/opinion/editorials/editorial-why-the-affordable-care-act-should-be-saved-not-killed-20190401/ …
Nine years ago today, the ACA’s benefits went into effect, guaranteeing young adults under 26 can stay on their parent’s health insurance, people with pre-existing conditions can’t be denied coverage & more. While the GOP continues to sabotage our progress, we won't go back.

Yes, a plan so awesome, you have to force people to sign up for it and other people to pay because they got kicked off their original plans...

Insurance companies did that. Can you tell me what the ACA does to help people & protect us from predatory carriers? Answer: No fake coverage, allows kids to stay on parents' policies, protects millions with pre-existing conditions & provides preventive care coverage

It was such a help for us since our daughter was in grad school. When she turned 26 she thankfully was in a state that expanded Medicaid. If not she'd be trying to pay off a large Hospital bill.

Wait ..."benefits?" What benefits? Premiums went up, and deductibles skyrocketed, making the "insurance" worthless! Didn't their parents lose their insurance? Many people lost their insurance! Was that one of the "benefits?"

Well the GOP made it so I can choose to not have insurance, which I CHOOSE to not have insurance, as a healthy 27 year old about to do public service for a year. I wouldnt have needed to be on my parents insurance if I wasnt mandated to have insurance.

The counter argument being that if everyone stareted paying in when they were young and healthy the increasing cost of their health care as they age would be amoritized and not be such a burden or shock.
