The plan was way too complicated and way too solicitous of insurance and drug companies, the rollout was terrible, the statement that you could keep your insurance was flat out wrong. I know all that.
Nonetheless, millions of people now have health insurance who didn’t have it before. Hundreds of thousands of college students are covered. Millions of people in states with reasonable governors and legislatures are now covered by Medicaid. And all of this in spite of constant attacks by Republicans who were (and still are) doing everything in their power to kill “Obamacare” without any proposed alternative except permission to die.
Way to go President Obama. You did good.
