Most of those who have been vehemently opposed to the AHCA have no idea how the law will affect them or anyone else. Many of them oppose it simply because they see it as Obama's plan and they oppose him so strongly that they, like rush Limbaugh, want him, and anything he proposes to fail. As I have alleged all along, there will be beneficial repercussions, and there will be unforeseen consequences, as there are with any major legislation - think about how many times social security has been changed for example. It will likely be amended and tweaked many times as the real-life results become evident. It was changed and amended during the process by both parties as well as the "input" by special interests, so that the final law was and is almost impossible for most citizens to fully understand and digest. In fact, I would argue few experts really have a grasp on the totality of its impact.
