The ACA could still TANK!

It seems that as of late there hasn't been much talk about the ACA.  People got sick of hearing about it, it wasn't really working or not working, and there was nothing that could really affect the future of the ACA to talk about.  Well, apparently one the most important mechanisms of the ACA is illegal.  The law does not permit subsidies on a Federal Exchange.  Personally, I believe this will get tossed out of court within the next few days. However, in the rare occurrence that this is taken seriously it could have a detrimental effect on the ACA and basically diminish the law all together.  It would wreak havoc in the health care industry, millions of people would be without coverage overwhelming the state insurance exchanges. I have been totally against the ACA for a long time, I wanted to see it fail simply because I believed that the republican party had a much more realistic and obtainable goals for the industry. They were more focused on increasing accessibility and decreasing cost rather than just subsidizing and charging people based on income. But at this point, it would do way more harm than good after all the majority of us just want to see as many people with coverage as possible.


EVERA. Everyone should feel this good about healthcare.
