I don't know, I think that's partly a knee jerk reaction to the stereotype that Democrats are weak (which they usually are). You could
say the exact same thing about the Bush administration's Patriot Act.

How can you choose a lifestyle that involved avoiding entering the health care system? You don't choose to get into a car accident or tear your meniscus or get prostate cancer. I'm interested to hear more of your perspective though; while I like the Affordable Care Act in theory, who knows how it will work out in practice.
