We are no longer debating what will happen when the President's healthcare law goes into effect. The Affordable Care Act, as it was written and is being implemented, is having the negative consequences on the American people we long predicted it would. Despite the President's many promises to the contrary, they are being forced to find a new and more expensive plan because the plan they have and like has been canceled. Individuals are being forced to buy coverage from a Web site that does not work. This is unfair to the American people. But let's be honest--the problems we are seeing today are likely to get even worse.
