The ACA today January 29, 2016

I'm looking for ways to debate the ACA with unbiased sources. I don't see a forum for this, so I'm posting here. Feel free to move.

I live among ultra - conservatives in Orange County, CA where single payer is mocked and the ACA lied about.

Is there a library of sources here on DU?

Right now? My main issue is that Healthcare.gov told me I had 90 days to submit corroborating documents for my income (because it must be too hard to search my SS#). I had signed up on Dec 10th. Today is January 29th. I received a letter telling me I had until the 31st to submit the documents. The government never has been good at math, I guess, because that does not add up to 90 days. When I went to upload my last year's tax return (as suggested in the letter), there were no (none) directions on how to do so, and I had to figure it out myself.

My main problem with ACA is that the servicing on the website SUCKS. Bad. Which doesn't help them in the media and with the yokels, and it is something that is easily and cheaply remedied. A lot of people would be lost on that jalopy of a website.

Other than that? My coverage is awesome. It costs me, but it's worth it.
