Not at all. More than 20 million still have no insurance and the number is growing.

Thanks, right wingers for having nothing but obstruction for policies that help the Poor.

The poor get Medicaid.

If the republicans had not spent the last four years trying to knee cap the AHCA who knows how many people it would have helped get some kind of coverage.

The Democrats passed Obamacare by themselves over GOP objections. The OC mandate has been declared unconstitutional. They actually tried to charge veterans the penalty even tho we have VA coverage.

The friigin Democrats passed it by themselves without GOP consultation. What the hell do you expect? It's a bad law.

That's not what Wacky Baracky said. He also said it would reduce premiums and they went up.

I've yet to believe anything he ever said. The ACA was meant to a stepping stone to Single Payor

That's not true....at least not for those veterans 30% disabled and higher...might even be 10% disabled and higher....

And you were never charged the penalty if you had VA medical coverage....

Reagan's COBRA act forces hospitals to care for the poor.

And if the covid hit, do you realize how much harder if would have been, having to pay the mandate or high cost insurance?

Anybody can log onto the website and sign up for health care insurance ... so Obamacare has provided the opportunity to everyone to have this insurance ...

The better question is can everybody afford health care insurance ... of course not, that's why they made a law requiring you to buy health care insurance ... duh ...

Republicans had two solid years to repeal it ... TWO SOLID YEARS ... laughing stock of the world ...

Nationalizing the system will never happen ... maybe try Laissez-faire ... Free Market Republicans ought to jump right on board with that ...

No, that's not true either.... the Republicans introduced over 60 amendments to the ACA before it went up for a bill vote and these republican amendments to the ACA passed.....

Republicans were involved some during the making of the bill, then when it came time to pass it, they all held back, for political posturing.

The republican states that chose to not expand MEDICAID in the ACA provision, left a lot of the poor, not covered....

Not covered by the ACA because they made too little income...they were too poor, and not covered by MEDICAID, because they made too much.... that gap, on those states, left those in this gap, without insurance....

That is because republicans didn't want health care improvement.

Absolutely not. Nor was it ever designed to do so. It's just not a great plan. The individual mandate was doomed from the start to be ineffective. That's what we get for trying out the idiotic alternative to the ideas we know will work.

President Barack Obama’s health care law moved to standardize Medicaid requirements, specifically so any American making up to 133% of the poverty line could qualify. But that provision was challenged and overturned by the Supreme Court. States could expand Medicaid, but they no longer had to. --A state-by-state guide to Medicaid: Do I qualify?
