We warned you. 

Sheesh, SC, you're slipping.  This is actually a pretty fair and balanced article.  (Did you not read it or something? haha)
I liked this part:
To hear conservatives tell it, health care reform is disrupting an individual market that was working pretty well before government interference. That's not true either — the existing individual market is so dysfunctional that more than 3/4 of people who lack group coverage go uninsured. The existing market mostly works well for people who are healthy and have moderate to high incomes; the goal of the ACA is to make it work for everyone.

And the ACA will do that, making insurance accessible and affordable to tens of millions of people who lack it now. Some people who are already insured through the individual market will be better off, too: Their premiums will go down and/or their plans will get more comprehensive.
