How is Obamacare not a disaster for the Democratic party? (revised)

[cilla4progress]

20. I believe you are correct.

I don't know about brentspeak...but I am someone who 1) is a faithful Dem and DU'er; 2) individual policy is being cancelled because it no longer complies - is no longer a qualified plan under Obamacare ...ergo, BECAUSE OF OBAMACARE.

My plan did NOT change, should have met the grandfathering requirements. I'm sure the company felt it was no longer profitable.

My premium and deductible were lower than the replacement plan. The big benefit of the replacement plan is, due to the requirements of ACA, there is no annual max - which had been $100K. In other words, under the replacement plan, I don't top out, and if I suffered a serious injury, illness or accident, I won't be stuck with expenses over $100K. Because this never happened to me in my 3 years under the plan, it feels to me like my costs are going up (only) under ACA. Capiche?

Here's how the Dems avoid ACA being a disaster (and this is a meme I have recently heard, which should be stated over and over again): AT LEAST THE DEMS ARE DOING SOMETHING. They are trying to make the system fairer and more responsive for everyone. The patient's rights that are being put forth, are for everyone. The Repubs have not only proposed nothing, they have tried to stand in the way of people getting access to health care, and mending our economy on this issue.
