Affordable Care Act - Good or Bad?

[firstandten]

The converse question would be - why do we need the federal government forcing the states to adopt their system? Let the states pick what health care system they want. If it works so great, other states could adopt it.

I'm not sure what your statement meant, but the states will run there own Health insurance exchanges unless an a-hole like Gov Scott of Florida refuses to do it, in which case the federal gov will take over that function.

Understand we are not talking about a new system here. All we are doing is making a broken system a little less broken. Yes, there are some new guidelines and the IM but for the most part this will really only affect people who have no insurance.
