People are being treated for medical problems, hospitals are doing well, and republicans are not happy. I can only assume that right-wingers would rather have people die from their medical problems and hospitals go bankrupt.

You should stop demanding that individuals, or their increasingly embattled employers, purchase insurance against fake, marketer invented 'diseases.'
What diseases are those?

It doesn't require many brain cells to say "no".
It requires some intelligence to develop a plan.

What a load of crap. I won't bother to elaborate as those who chose to gobble up the information in this story without delving further don't want to know the real facts and aren't reading anything but other fluff pieces.

Yeah! Texas doesn't need hospitals anyway, they have band-aids and aspirin!

I'm sorry, but it is not great or doctors. Show me 1 doctor who is happy with the ACA and I will show you 10 that hate it. It is good for the hospitals, which are run by MBA's not MD's. It is good for drug companies, insurance companies, lab corporations, and a whole bunch of other special interests, but most doctors have seen their workload go up while their reimbursements have gone down.

Oh you care enough to single out one state to rant about.

Seacove seems a little sensitive about TX's success.
