I'm not sure how this works.....people don't support them but they are growing in power?
How does this work?
People support them within the base of the Republican Party, but 70% of Americans do not support them. The people who show up to the GOP primaries do however. That is why primary season is always about solely abortion and same-sex marriage every election season.

So what you are saying is "vote" or if something doesn't go your way its your own damn fault?
The ACA was the biggest middle class tax increase in history.
What's funny is that Hillary is inheriting that time-bomb from Obama. The penalty for not signing up is finally getting large enough not to just blow-off. The 25yo making 28k a year that's in good health and not signing up is having reality creep up on their **** year by year.
Obama is taking one giant sh*t on Hillary's presidential hopes with the gun stuff and a few others and he's probably laughing about it behind closed doors a little.

No love lost there.
I actually don't want Republicans to either defund or destroy the ACA. I want it to fail on it's own merits, or lack thereof.
It's only a matter of time before the people who believe they are getting free healthcare to realize they have to pay to see the doctor and pay if they don't buy the insurance.
Now THAT is an idea. They could have logos put on their suits, like NASCAR racers have their suits covered in racing logos - identifying which special interest they represent. Let's just cut to the chase.
The problem is that it would not allow you to differentiate much between Democrats and Republicans. They'd all be wearing pretty much the same special interest logos, and not one of them would represent the average American voter.

I think it's a solution, not a problem. Plus, make the special interest logos attached to their suits based on campaign contributions. The largest contributors must have the largest patches. Smaller contributors have smaller patches. It can be an exact science this way.

Plus Brown in CA is pushing a "premium tax" on those not getting subsidies in order to shore up the state fund that covers subsidies. Even though this is a state initiative it will make the ACA appear to be even more of a wealth transfer. Gee, wonder if Brown had not given illegals free health insurance, would this tax be needed?
