(YouTube link)

The TV show Jimmy Kimmel Live! did a segment illustrating what you've read elsewhere: that Americans don't like Obamacare, but they do like the Affordable Care Act. Which are exactly the same thing, only the names are changed. Keep in mind that these "man on the street" interviews are always highly edited, and if you were asked the same question and gave the correct answer, you wouldn't be included in the final cut. Some Americans know what's going on. -via Viral Viral Videos

The new health exchanges through which uninsured people can buy group health insurance are online today as part of the Affordable Care Act.

For more information on the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, see an FAQ posted at the Washington Post.


Now if they would have asked about it's true name, the Unaffordable Care Act, then everyone would have answered correctly!

Or as put by a better man than I: It is amazing that people who think we cannot afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, and medication somehow think that we can afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, medication and a government bureaucracy to administer it. - Thomas Sowell
