Not because we did anything wrong. Rather, it's due to all the Republican lies.
My wife came to me this morning and asked me to give her a short primer on the Affordable Care Act (ACA). It seems her co-workers were concerned that they were going to have to opt-out of "Obamacare" or pay a penalty. I described the basics, some of which she was aware of, but she needed details to educate her co-workers.
I downloaded a fact sheet and we went over it together. This evening she came home and reported that once her co-workers understood the basics about the ACA they all agreed it sounded pretty good.
Additionally, once they understood that the ACA was fully funded and they didn't have to pay any additional tax, they couldn't understand why the Republicans were shutting down the government. It no longer made any sense to them.
This is one underlying reason why the Republicans are acting irrationally...once the people have truthful information, it isn't going to turn out good for the GOP.
Once the ACA gets going, it is going to be powerful...very, very powerful!
