Oh, by the way, I'm one of the first Boomers. One of my classmates died 17 years ago at the age of 50. Her death came about because she didn't have Insurance and she couldn't afford to go to a hospital. She was a high school cheerleader who grew up in an upper middle class family. She was intelligent, pretty, and was loved and a friend to all. We all could have found ourselves in a similar situation. Would you feel the same way about ACA if your child needed the help? No one is saying it's perfect, but I haven't heard of any other plans brought to the table that are better. It needs to be tweaked, but instead they'll try, for the 53rd time, to repeal it. It's done - let's make it better.

You just made me tear up for the fifth time today, and I thank you for it. The fact that others put lives of their fellow man above all else inspires me to stay the course. Thank you very much for an inspiring post Xavier.
I turned 50 years old 16 years ago. I get it.
