Democrats See Skimpy Insurance As The Next Health Care Issue

3. Yep. And those who pointed it out while the ACA was being

'debated' (aka negotiated into weak sauce) were called liars, because if the word 'affordable' was in the bill, then it must be affordable, amiright?

But then and now, I think it is important to point out that simply having larger numbers of people signed up for insurance is NOT success, that it will take a few years to see how many more people are actually using it and what the outcomes are using measurable public health/quality of life statistics over the next few years. I am not optimistic and would love to see improvements sooner rather than later.

Frankly, I'm surprised any politicians are talking about this yet, because the ACA is still in the honeymoon phase of being able to tout enrollment numbers as success.
