Maybe a conservative can explain, the Repiblicans are going to "repeal" the ACA,

I pay a ton in taxes and never use a single government provided service. Not a road I helped pay for, nor police nor courts nor fire department nor jail nor water nor public health.

A single drug test costs around $6.00 retail. Imagine the money saved (and the fraud prevented) from a single drug user having to choose between his drug or food.

Now what Jimmy, out of fossils?

You don't drink water, eh?

So very desperate to delude yourself that you don't take advantage of socialism like every single other AMERICAN!

Teach me how the Venezuelan government is benefitting it's people. Or better yet, stay in the US. Where do you think the US government gets it's money?

HINT: Taxes.

We aren't talking about Venezuela.

But nice attempt at diverting the discussion.

Everyone here in the USA benefits from government services.

No, the people who eat right and exercise can not afford to pay for everyone else. You have tricked the millenials and the middle class into paying other people's bills, so the democrat politicians can buy votes.

Record numbers, more than ever before are affording it.

The law doesn't require that you have insurance. Everybody has the option of not purchasing it. Or, one could suck it up and purchase their own insurance if they don't likecACA.

The option of being forced by the gov't to buy it, ... or pay up to a $2000 fine per year, ... just for breathing.

SANITY CHECK:
U.S. law requires that hospital emergency rooms must provide health care to the medically uninsured.

It's among the most $costly health care administered in the U.S.

And those that can't trouble themselves to get to the emergency room can call 911, have an ambulance dispatched to their home, and get treatment there; WITHOUT THEM PAYING FOR IT.

That doesn't mean it's "free".
It merely means they're not the ones paying for it. And you should know, that means you and I are paying for it.

With ACA, what Obama tried to do is to shift the cost burden from innocents like you and me, back to the recipients where it belongs.

Republicans obviously don't like that. Republicans obviously prefer the anti-Obama, liberal solution; administering healthcare to some citizens, and billing others for it.

That's the kind of liberals Republicans are! A liberal is a person that would give you the shirt,
off someone else's back.

Actually, it does. There was a Supreme Court case about this and everything. But if it doesn't, as you say, then what was the point?

One can choose to not purchase insurance. From healthcare.gov:

"If you can afford health insurance but choose not to buy it, you must pay a fee called the individual shared responsibility payment."

Did you think emergency rooms didn't charge for their care? The people who used them as general practitioners just didn't pay their bills.

Not that it matters now. Your beloved Obamacare is toast, no matter how hard you cry.
