Also, you have to realize that many people who don't like the ACA oppose it because it did not go far enough toward a single pay system. It is not like all of the people who oppose it agree with anything the Republicans have to propose.
It took a year and countless back room shenanigans to pass the bill with only democrat support. When the Dems had significant numbers in both the house and senate. That alone should tell you that we shouldn't have this law.
Like I have said .... Repeal and negotiate. I will be ok with even single payer if they can rally enough votes. I obviously don't favor that but it's about getting something done together.
Or maybe let this be decided on the state level. Once we get more states running single payer the. Other states will follow if it's working.
