6. I don't have any trouble with focus, thanks.

I do have trouble with the suggestion that the ACA, which is an insurance mandate, is somehow going to lead to a single payer system. The foundation is wrong.

I also have trouble with you being sure about anything I believe. You simply don't have the background knowledge to determine what I believe, and your suggestion, as well as demonstrating ignorance, is ludicrous.

First, nowhere have I advocated for the "demise" of the ACA.

Second, I haven't "stamped my feet," nor "held my breath," nor any other kind of tantrum behavior, and the suggestion that I have is false, is misdirection, and is an extremely weak ad hominem.

Third, your statement about "the only path" is your opinion, although you didn't bother to present it that way, and it's an opinion backed with neither evidence nor logic.

Finally, NOTHING is "here to stay." That's a ridiculous statement that adds nothing to any debate.

Of course, nothing I have said has anything whatsoever to do with "the demise of the ACA," or whether or not it is "here to stay." You are tilting at windmills, like some other people whose focus is so narrow that they can't beyond their own nose. I understand that you feel defensive because the ACA is under attack, and you are somehow invested in its future. Many feel that way. Some because they see it as Obama's legacy, and their first priority is promoting his image and record. Others because they've waited so long for some sort of action on health care that they are willing to embrace ANYTHING that offers some hope, well-founded or not. Others because the ACA WILL actually help them. And others because they are more interested in scoring political points for the party than any issue. I don't know what your motivation is. I don't care what your motivation is. To be honest, I don't really care what you think about the ACA.

If you want to debate the ACA or anything else with me, bring something substantive to the discussion, and leave the ad hominem behind. Or just find a more receptive audience for your opinions.
