Lol dude you think republicans were against the ACA because they are the allies (or at least not enemies) of physicians? They're politicians, they couldnt care less. They voted against it because it was Obama's plan. Idiot physicians just think they should vote republican because their tax views are more in line with high income earners. You're screwing yourself with either party, but at least try to not be completely naive.
Not to mention, doctors did this to themselves. Our healthcare delivery was completely unsustainable and ineffective and leadership did nothing to address it when they did have power, so now it's politicians dictating healthcare. We're all against the ACA, midlevel creep, etc, but we have no organized response in proposing alternatives. It's just old ******* attendings complaining about the proposals and stagnating medicine.
