But the law DOES have problems right now because the costs are just too high. I mean premiums are very high and deductibles are extremely high as well so for young people like you and me it basically makes no sense. One could say young people are paying for the subsidies and it would actually be better for one not to have health insurance and just pay the penalty. But the law has very good things about it as well and it did get 20+ million people insured! Republicans are just plain crazy. They are hell bent on getting rid of the entire law. That would create ultimate chaos. Even the health insurers don't want that!

The reason Obamacare failed is because private insurance companies set their premiums and not enough healthy people signed up to offset the sick. Now as more people sign up premiums are supposed to go down this year and insuraers are going to see profit. Republicans did not want to work with obama to help fix the massive law and it is an act of genius that it works as well as it does in its current state.
