That's the best short explanation of ACA I've seen so far.

You know, we can bitch and moan, and point out how ridiculous, how wrong, how utterly disastrous this whole mess of obastardcare is until the cows can't get home cuz hell froze over.
And it will do
NO GODDAMN GOOD.
Get it through your heads. We're dead fucked on this one. It's like the income tax. There's no getting out.
What? Do you think we can vote in Republicans and get the law repealed?
Yeah.
Like that's gonna' happen.
I'm going to go re-read John C. Wright's essay.

Standing at the designated spot waiting for the espresso, watching the "barista," I see her reach for a lid for my little paper cup of espresso shots so I say to her, "I don't need a lid." The barista responds to my no lid request by stating, "Company "policy" requires that I put a lid on your coffee." I guess that's a minimal essential coffee benefit, now.
