Obamacare is successful if you define success as increased coverage. But it has also led to more workers being confined to 29.5 hours a week so employers don't have to pay for their health insurance. So the working class don't get health insurance through their work as the law intended, make less money because their hours got cut and have to buy insurance that may be overpriced compared to their individual actuarial risk. This law is just too big and too complex to simply say it has been a success or a failure. It has clearly been both with some winners and some losers.
