GOP hypocritical on health care
The Gazette Opinion Staff
Apr. 7, 2014 3:05 pm
The Affordable Care Act was created by using ideas from the Massachusetts Mitt Romney health insurance plan. This was originally a Republican plan from a Republican “think tank,” which Romney promoted in Massachusetts.
Democrats voted against it then because it was too complicated, but when it was passed into law, Democrats helped Republicans make it work. Most Massachusetts citizens now have health insurance.
Republicans attempting to destroy the Affordable Care Act by their misinformation is nothing short of hypocrisy.
