What's the first word in the act's name?
- maxxxxx 8y agoI agree that it failed to achieve that goal but it also didn't make the rising health care costs worse. You are making the big (and very american) mistake to attribute all problems to the party or president you don't like while overlooking the systemic problems that are there long term no matter who is in power.

That trend slowed under Obama. https://www.factcheck.org/2015/02/slower-premium-growth-under-obama/ https://www.factcheck.org/2015/02/slower-premium-growth-unde... Democrats wanted a much better of the ACA, but let's not forget that Republicans were walking around talking about how they'd "oppose anything Obama did," without even reading the texts of the bills http://swampland.time.com/2012/08/23/the-party-of-no-new-details-on-the-gop-plot-to-obstruct-obama/ http://swampland.time.com/2012/08/23/the-party-of-no-new-det... So back to my original point - Republicans, why they be like they do?
