In reply to the discussion: why the GOP is frantically trying to smother Obamacare in the crib [View all]Beartracks

I'm concerned that many people who directly benefit from Obamacare will have no idea that the benefit was courtesy of the ACA. You know how you drive by construction projects and see signs that say "Your tax dollars at work" or "This road improvement project is being funded by the 2012 Streets & Sewers Bond"? The ACA needs some marketing like that, so people will know.
