Well, if the "class" taught you that there will be tax increases, and worry about "subsidizing" premiums, they are factually wrong. The ACA is self-funded. Who was relaying such absurd and false information to you?

it will be a clusterfucl< of epic proportions if this law stays.

Total nonsense. The real information, about what is really in the law, and how it works, and how it is funded, has been readily available on the internet for over a year, from reliable sources. It's unbelievable the false nonsense still being spread.

And btw: the majority of the law has already been implemented. You've been "suffering" under alot of it already. You know, like your insurance company not being able to kick you off for pre-existings, and not kicking kids with cancer off policies for lifetime limit reach, and the donut hole being closed for your parents on Medicare, and their preventive care now being no copay, and thousands now being insured by being able to purchase insurance on the temporary exchanges, or the small business major tax credits that they got for last year, so they can afford insurance when they couldn't afford it for employees before? About the only thing left is adding more to the exchanges. The sky has not fallen. Where are the government death panels?

Small Employer Tax Credits

The Affordable Care Act helps small businesses and small tax-exempt organizations afford the cost of covering their employees.

What This Means for You

If you have fewer than 25 employees and provide health insurance, you may qualify for a tax credit of up to 35% (up to 25% for non-profits) to offset the cost of your insurance. This credit will increase in 2014 to 50% (35% for non-profits). This will make the cost of providing insurance much lower.

Claim this tax credit for your small business at IRS.gov.
