The ACA was Hillary's idea?

http://planetjh.com/2014/04/15/healing-healthcare-new-law-is-saving-lives-sowing-doubts/

I'm getting confused about this thing.  Seems as if most people are.  Some republicans think this was Obama's idea, but some democrats are very quick to dispel that and blame it on Romney.  "He had it first."  Now this woman shows up and is crediting Hillary?  Good grief.....

Its not universal healthcare for starters, and it was devised from Romneys plan that he devised in his state. The very guy that helped devise Romneys plan helped with the ACA. Hillary attempted a healthcare plan at one time but it didnt go anywhere.

One thing I have learned is that we hear alot of different stories from alot of different people about alot of different topics. My belief that this is done intentionally to confuse us.

But regardless of who how and why, its here and hopefully as twists and turns arise, our so called leaders will do what they were hired to do and put their great minds to the task of sorting it out and making it work better.

Yeah, I know... Wishful thinking.

Actually, I "think" it was FDR who first wanted universal healthcare in the U.S. and it didn't fly.  Several other Presidents have wanted to reform health care, but none succeeded.  From what I've read, Hilary's plan was so far "out there" that even the Democrats laughed it away.

It's true - it is the law and it's unlikely that it will be repealed in it entirety and I'm not convinced that it should be, so it's time to fix it and move on.

Who cares who thought it up ?
Now that it's law, it needs to get untangled so some good can come from it.
