Still don't understand the Affordable Care Act (a.k.a. ACA a.k.a. Obamacare)? This should clear things up for you.

Easy peasy. It's a law. It passed congressional votes AND Supreme Court scrutiny. So now that The Republicans have failed miserably in their attempts to stop it, not that their attempt yesterday would have even had an effect even had they proved victorious, and now that they've shut down the government while having zero effect on the act going into practice I am hopeful this will finally wake them up from the delusional state the more extreme fringes of the party has been operating under to hold the rest of their party hostage.

Anyway, here's how the ACA works. Not that its opponents want you to now any of this...
