For example, who was it that could do nothing but complain and protest about the effort to overhaul our health care system, the ACA, and who is it that is still doing hardly anything else, with no substance or delivery of any sort even now that the Congress is controlled by the same do-nothing whiners?
!
Pre ACA was superior. I want to return to 1/19/2009 in that regard. If we can do better w/o extra cost, great. If not, 1/19/2009 please.
Your left wing nature leads you to think all action better than no action. Not true with gov't.
What have we lost? Trump's the one who keeps losing. How many courts have struck down his Muslim ban? How's that healthcare legislation doing? A few weeks ago it was the best thing ever, now it's mean. The GOP congress people who voted yes aren't too happy today. Your boy's disapproval rating is now up to 60%, higher than most recent presidents have ever gotten. Hey look, I found something he's the best at!
Trying to copy and paste stuff that Rachel Maddow says on CNN, MSNBC, etc..?
If any has notice the investigations of Trump has ended up empty like a cheap suit. On the other hand liberals cannot even defend Obama, HRC Lynch and Pedesta. That is where the anger arises, becuase the Left is fatally flawed.
No it wasn't. You could get denied coverage for pre-existing conditions. You could be subject to lifetime expense caps. If you could afford it at all.
However, millions more in 2009 had terrific employer plans vs 2017, with low deductibles and low annual limits, and vast majority w/o lifetime caps. Lifetime caps were primarily a McJob's issue. Those who graduated to adult jobs generally never experience one. Corps buy re-insurance to deal with high $ claims, routinely.

Millions less didn't even HAVE health care back in 2009. Look you can be smug about "I've got mine" but being a responsible citizen of this country is to help ensure that we are a "we" society, rather than a "me" society.
Interestingly enough, the Trump Administration is sabotaging the insurance markets by curtailing the risk corridors which are part of reinsurance that you've just mentioned. So the current administration is acting in bad faith towards the health care market in conjunction with the Congressional actions right now.
That's not a very relevant statement. What's more important is the number of people UNINSURED.
And the number of uninsured has dropped from 17.5% in 2009 to about 9.9% in 2016.
