The news gets even better for Democrats as the ACA isn’t just expanding access to affordable health insurance, it is also fueling a jobs boom in the health care industry. The health care industry created 44,900 new jobs in October. For the year, the health care sector has created almost as many jobs in 2015 (407,000) than they did in 2013 and 2014 combined (410,000).
The Republican response to the increase in ACA enrollment has been silence. The Republican response to the fact that the ACA has been fueling private sector job growth has been to deny reality by claiming that the ACA is killing jobs and small businesses.
President Obama and Democrats have won. ObamaCare is not only working, but it is creating jobs and helping the economy. The question for 2016 isn’t if the country should keep the ACA, but how hard are Democrats willing to fight to keep and build on what President Obama has accomplished?
The Republicans have been silent about Obamacare, now we know why.
