38. Much depends on how many people support the ACA after they can see their options. ...

Many people live paycheck to paycheck today. They will be pissed if the cost of their health care increases dramatically and has a much higher deductible as Fox News suggests. Since we are responsible for the ACA, we may lose seats in the Senate in both the midterm and next Presidential election.

Of course I am hoping that Fox News is wrong and most people will end up with a much better health care plan at a lower cost. In that case the Republicans will been seen as the "party of NO" and will lose seats in both the House and Senate over the next two elections.

On a positive note the ACA has already started to make a difference.

Health care spending since the 2010 passage of the Affordable Care Act has risen by 1.3% a year, the lowest rate ever recorded, and health care inflation is the lowest it has been in 50 years, a report released Wednesday by the White House shows.

An economy hobbled by the recession and 2008 economic crisis played a role in some of the reduced spending growth, officials said, but the report cited “structural change” caused, in part, by the law.
