Killing the A.C.A.

Yesterday the Trump administration declared its opposition to the entire Affordable Care Act.  It argued in a federal appeals court that the Act was unconstitutional and should be struck down.

If the courts agree, some 21 million Americans would no longer have health insurance.

Sometimes the little devil that lives inside my head says, “Go ahead.  Do it.  See what happens when you win.”
