LOL!!! these are your distinctions?
Romney care "failed" because of sabotage from trolls just like you. Same reason the national plan is dealing with so much resistance. Here's the reality of Massachusetts (Politifact):
- The state law was successful on one big goal: A little more than 98 percent of state residents now have insurance.
- Claims that the law was “bankrupting” the state are greatly exaggerated. Costs rose more quickly than expected in the first few years, but came in line with what the Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation had estimated.
- Despite claims to the contrary, there was no clear evidence that the law had an adverse effect on waiting times. In fact, 62 percent of physicians say it didn’t.
- Public support was high. One poll found that 68.5 percent of nonelderly adults supported the law in 2006; 67 percent still do.

Oh, STFU... No, that very obviously wasn't his thinking AT ALL.
You "privatize everything" cultists posted a cartoon that suggests Obama left a steaming turd he knew would fail. The only horse**** is that tired suggestion.
