ACA is horrid and will soon be erased from memory.

What a distortion of facts, CaliRestoration.

"The GOP implies that the study pointed to “lost hours” as if these were jobs lost involuntarily; in fact, the CBO projected that by severing the link between employment and insurance, the law would free more people to voluntarily leave employment to do something else with their lives, whether caring for family members, starting entrepreneurial companies, or retiring.

That’s exactly what has happened: Since the ACA, full-time employment in the U.S. has increased, as has voluntary part-time labor. The Republican party used to think that eliminating the “job lock” of employment-based insurance was a good thing because it increased individual choice. Now they call it a “distortion” of the labor market."

Just talk to your leftist friends, explain the evils of the democrat party in California, begin with these topics during a friendly lunch or dinner.

- Spending and taxing into prosperity is a myth
- Why DNC corruption is so wide spread
- Taking personal responsibility of one's life instead of giving up all freedom to the state.

I suggest going to PragerU and watching most of their videos.

You realize Rosie is being disingenuous and you're being mocked right?

OP, maybe you'll like single payer better.

Turn the whole thing over to Kaiser, let them contract with other hospitals and doctors as they see fit. They know how to manage costs something that no one else seems able to do

Yep, one corporation being in control of everything is always the best idea!

"We really don’t know how Californians feel about government-run universal healthcare. People haven’t been asked for a while.

The Public Policy Institute of California surveyed voters in January, however, and found that 54% opposed congressional repeal of the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare."

Most are working more than one job, and still can't afford healthcare while on Ob care. That's the problem. If it worked I doubt they'd be complaining. Since they were the ones using it, it's only fair to listen to what they have to say about it, don't you think?

I'm so tired of the hate from the left. Listen. Listen if you ever want to hold office again. It's not just "fly over" country.

What does "most" mean? Do you have any data to support your claim that "most are working more than one job and still can't afford healthcare"? And what could/should Republicans be doing to reduce the cost of health insurance because I have yet to see any Republican plan that would contain costs.
