re: #75 blueraven

Gruber was addressing the political ramifications of trying to pass legislation and how the process is designed with obfuscation and smoke and mirrors - that applies to all legislation, not just the PPACA, which got more scrutiny than most.

And Gallup just announced today that 71% of people who actually get their insurance through the exchanges either find the insurance good or excellent. Only 9% consider it poor.

That’s the real problem for the GOP. Once people understand that insurance is a good thing - and they’re paying for it, they will not want to see it dismantled and destroyed by the GOP. That’s why they’re pushing misdirection plays and misinformation campaigns.

It’s worked for them with Halbig and Hobby Lobby (along with willing accomplices in business and the state level that want to see the ACA dismantled and destroyed).
