Obamacare embarrasses the right
by digby
Oh my, it’s actually working:
And if you want to know why the right hates it so much, look at this:
It’s the poor, the young, African Americans and Latinos who have benefited the most. These are people the right believes are getting something for nothing at their expense. A whole lot of white people have benefited too, but lately they’re considered undeserving as well. It’s the same old story.
At some point, however, many more people will cycle through the Obamacare system as they lose or change jobs or start a business or get too sick to work for a while. Maybe the attitudes will change then. But it’s going to take time. This attitude is baked in the American cake and it’s going to take time to change it.
