Just how unworkable is the Affordable Care Act, or the ``Unaffordable Care Act,'' as I am often corrected back home in District 11? Let's take a look at some recent headlines about the launch of the new Web site: The Orlando Sentinel called it a ``hit-or-miss proposition.'' CNN said: Americans are still having a tough time. Wow, what an understatement. Yes, we all know about how the ObamaCare Web site--built with taxpayer dollars--is riddled with glitches. But is a bad Web site the only problem Americans face? Not by a long shot. How about those premiums that are shooting up all over America for affordable health care? Last month's mediocre jobs reports show our economy is still struggling, and higher insurance costs will not help hardworking Americans solve those problems. This is not what we were promised, but it is exactly what we are getting under the Unaffordable Care Act. ____________________
