13. People who have the greatest needs are rejected by private insurance

The ACA is a life saver for them. It is exactly the opposite of what this Congressman said. I am just stunned that he is so clueless.. Private insurance makes a huge profit with Medicaid servicing the needs of people. Why did he think the ACA was created in the first place. Private Insurance would not cover people.
