Sell/Explain the ACA (i.e. Obamacare) on television in detail and explain why it is worth risking a government shutdown.

Created by R.D. on September 22, 2013

If the ACA (i.e. Obamacare) is as important as you claim, we ask that you explain it in detail during a half hour on the major television networks. Specifically we ask that you address the criticisms being made against it by the Republicans in Congress who are attempting to defund it at the risk of shutting down the federal government. Explain how it will benefit us and how it will cost us. Explain whether or not it constitutes "socialized medicine" and why. Explain why it does or does not constitute a "government takeover" of health care. Directly address the claims of critics such as those in the commercials funded by the Koch brothers. And ideally, have a prominent (current or recently retired) Republican politician explain why he or she supports it and thinks it's good for America.
