“the ACA is the same ‘three legged stool’ that was first developed in Massachusetts”
Another lie. If I recall, Romneycare was about 20 pages, and Obamacare about a thousand. They CANNOT be the same, or even close.

Romney had expressed hopes that his plan would be adapted for a national plan. It’s not clear to me whether he truly meant federal, or simply that other states would imitate Massachusetts.
A state plan would not have any questions as to its constitutionality. A federal plan does, the cute “tax” of Roberts notwithstanding (the question hasn’t yet been brought, is this a constitutional TAX if it is a tax).
