ACA = ObamaCare, as it is referred to (usually with a sneer) here in the US. Many people object to being forced to pay for healthcare if they don't choose to do so. Which I think is insane, but *shrug*.
Ok so Alphamale objects to making health care affordable for all.
I pay national insurance n the UK, which means that healthcare is free for everyone at point of use. The one certainty we have is that at some point we will all need it and it being free is probably the thing that I would point to as one of the best things about the UK. We also pay less per head of population than the US do and they get a lesser service.
