I have been trying to figure out why the right seems to h**e Obamacare so much. It was designed after Romneycare, with one of the main features as the individual mandate. That idea started with the Heritage foundation as an alternative to the left's idea of single payer.

Is it just political? Are they upset because Obama stole their ideas?

Every time I see someone from the right asked what they would replace ACA with if they could repeal it, I hear things like we should sit down and come up with a by-partisan plan, but in today's political climate the chances of that happening seem slim to none.

If you have some thoughts as to why they are so against ACA, or if you know of some concepts from the right for something to replace it with, please reply. I am open to your thoughts.

If you just want to throw insults back and forth because someone has a different view than you, please don't. A forum should be a place to discuss ideas, not throw insults.

Do you not realize, that this ACA is the first step to Government control of Health Care? This is a trillion dollar business, and the nitwits in congress want to get their hands on the money. This present project is designed to fail, so the SAVIOR Obama and the Democrats can come in with a whole new solution. Create the Government Health Care System, install a new Department in the Government, and take Health Care under the control of i***ts, just like they are doing with the Dept of Education. The Health Care Enterprise has so far escaped total government control, and the Socialists in the system don't like that. That is why we have Obama care, A system designed to fail so it can be added to Government control. wtfu

Most of them are coming over the open border because they can fill the v****g booth illegally, and no one controls that. Especially the Democrats. Most of them want to work, but they don't want to pay income tax at the same time. So they work off the books if they can. Wouldn't you in their place? The problem is that we are giving too many of them a place. free access to everything you and I are paying for. Charity, is not a government function, it should be done by concerned people that re given credit on their taxes for doing so.

I looked up Hillary care on Wikipedia and there isn't a whole lot of difference between all 3. Granted, I have only see bits and pieces of clips and the bills are thousands of pages. From what I can tell, Hillary care leans toward more government provided care. All 3 are trying to get everyone covered by some sort of healthcare insurance.

As for employers cutting employees to 29 hours, that part is not in effect for about a year, and may never get there. However, I just talked to someone from a small town who said employers are reacting as though it was already here. They are reacting to the fear put out by the media.

As for cancellations, a lot of what I have seen is people getting cancellation notices and freaking out before looking into their options. A few may end up paying more, but health care has been rising at about 15% for a long time. That has already slowed. Many find that they can get better coverage for the same or less money.

I don't know how anyone can say that jobs won't be created because of Obamacare. In fact, if more people are getting healthcare I would expect there to be more jobs in that field.

Of course insurance companies will try to sell coverage for higher prices, and I know the faulty web site has kept people from learning their options. That is being fixed and I think most of those being told that by their insurance companies will be able to find better deals.

The only reasons I can objectively see for the right to be against ACA is political. Either, ideologically they don't care about all or most people being covered, or there is just such political hatred of anything Obama that they are forced to fight instead of just trying to make it work for all.
