is it possible to ask the forum members about ACA without being political???

I feel/think eventually the private sector will end providing health care & pay the fine which is much less than paying for private health care. Then again maybe the Govt. made that fine for corporation small just so the companies did just that. Sounds like a good idea to get huge numbers signing on to the ACA.

The fine isn't small at the large company level, and good benefits are a good way to attract and retain talent. Look, the ACA is a bad way to force individuals to get insurance. That's not in question. But the "Chicken Little" reactions to it based on feelings are why our government is shut down at this moment.

I'd rather not talk about the shutdown because that could be political, like who to blame.

It's a fact that companies are hiring & changing to a part time work force. So it's not far fetched to say that companies might end their health care insurance since the Govt. is pushing them to switch to the ACA. That name ACA should be changed back to what it was called before
