Because Democrats are liars. If in 2008 there had really been tens of millions of working people who couldn't afford healthcare (there weren't), the Dems could have just expanded medicaid and left everything else alone - problem solved. The Democrats never gave a shit who had health insurance and who didn't. The purpose of obamacare was to give the bureaucracy control over 1/5 of the economy and to control the citizenry. The lying Demwits and their conspirators in the media always scream and tear out their hair like this every time Republicans are about to pass any law.

Right? They could have expanded Medicare with a 5-10 page bill, but it would have been a politically minor change, not a "legacy" move.
