Whom do you think benefits the most from the ACA and possibly eventually universal health care? Individuals or corporate America? When you come to terms with that answer, you realize how ridiculous it is to call it "socialism".

Probably a little late for a comment on the original post but...
The federal government actually never knows what it's doing. They depend on lobbyists simply to avoid destroying whatever they touch. It's not that it's always terribly complicated although sometimes it is. It's that we elect people with political science or law degrees. They are ill equipted to thoerize an outcome as an economist would.

Democrats seek relief from health law penalties
Michigan's Sander Levin, the ranking Democrat on the Ways and Means Committee, and Democratic Reps. Jim McDermott of Washington, and Lloyd Doggett of Texas. All worked to help steer Obama's law through rancorous congressional debates from 2009-2010.
The lawmakers say they are concerned that many of their constituents will find out about the penalties after it's already too late for them to sign up for coverage, since open enrollment ended Sunday.
That means they could wind up uninsured for another year, only to owe substantially higher fines in 2016.

I am an occasional poster and I find it sooo hard to believe your Outrageous post without research. It is not worth my time, as BUSH caught much flack here.
All I know is our Country and our Credibility is sinking fast for the last 8 years.
So sad, another Blind Deceived poster.
What college did you graduate from?
The banks are 100% to blame for the economy downfall. I had a $12 million realstate deal go bad because the banks decided to change their mind last minute. Now I am starting never growing my business and working for UPS during peak. I don't cry that I lost making 130k a year sitting in my office. I go back to the bottom and will work my way back up. I could cry all day about the banks but the money was lost and I have to focus on getting it back. Stay warm.

From your link.
A major reason that hasn't happened is there simply aren't enough primary care physicians to handle all the newly insured patients, says ACEP President Mike Gerardi, an emergency physician in New Jersey.
"They don't have anywhere to go but the emergency room," he says. "This is what we predicted. We know people come because they have to."

Hawaii Obamacare Exchange Website Will Shutdown
Hawaii’s Obamacare exchange website will soon shut down because it is not financially viable, Americans for Tax Reform reports.
The exchange website will be shutdown despite $205 million in federal taxpayer funds. The migration to a federal exchange will cost taxpayers another $30 million.
According to ATR, with only 8,592 enrollees, the state spent $23,899 on each individual.

QSSI, the politically-connected information technology firm that rescued the problem-plagued HealthCare.gov website unexpectedly announced Thursday that it is stepping down as prime manager.
The surprise departure of QSSI, the Columbia, Md.-based subsidiary of the IT health firm Optum and the health insurance giant United Healthcare Group, will raise new doubts about the future viability of the website for President Obama’s signature program, Obamacare .

There will still be idiots who didn't see this coming even though they were warned many times for many years.....
