No.
Blame the liberal democrats who want to push a bill we can't afford while ignoring the $16.5 trillion debt that we still have to pay off. Spending more money is not the way to pay off a debt.
no. blame the bush-era rethugs for feathering their own nests at the expense of the rest of us. THEY are still getting paid! we cannot afford to keep letting rich people skate by with their lower overall tax rates compared to the rest of us. there is no good reason for somebody like warren buffet to get away with paying a lower overall tax rate than his secretary. the wealthy have gotten tax break after tax break and still they ship our jobs overseas and have not been creating new ones to replace them. and "trickle down" is just a big fat myth, the only thing that ever trickles down comes from the spouters of trickle-down who pee on all our legs while telling us it is only raining.

my reason is because the TPers simply hate the concept of people like me getting affordable health care, and they are willing to screw us all over in the process of expressing that hatred. no matter, I will sign onto the exchange no matter how much you or the TPers hate me for it.

The only problem with that is that we as a country cannot afford to support the ACA. We are almost $17 trillion in debt. Where do you propose we get the several billion it will cost to give everyone "affordable" healthcare? It may be affordable for you, but not for the nation as a whole. Eventually, the debt will have to be paid. All you're doing is making it bigger so it'll be harder for future generations.

that's right, make me and my ilk a scapegoat for this nation's problems instead of working together for a more equitable society. figures. you and your apologizing for the status quo [the rich not paying their fair share] is what is wrong with this country. we were a leading creditor nation [not a debtor nation] until 30 years worth of republican tax cuts on the rich bollixed things up but good.
