I appreciate your point. There is much more to the ACA than all the "good" points that we hear of every day from the pundits supporting the plan. There are numerous other points which are rarely discussed. In general, it puts government in control of health care management and patient decisions. The legislation is much too complex and is intertwined with references to other provisions. I'll give you one example that I would like your opinion on. The ACA includes provisions where the government determines when, where, and what size hospitals may be built. Some believe that's good for government to be making such decisions. Personally, I disagree. The U.S. became the most powerful nation in the world because of capitalism and the free market, not because of socialistic policies.  I laugh when I hear a Congressman praise Cuba's healthcare system. Care for all, and it's all free!. What's scary is that such nonsense is being pounded into heads of our students.  An entire new law is required
