Is the President breaking the law?

1 Answer

Answer :

I don’t think he is breaking the law. I think he has a tendency to overlook other important details that greatly influence his decisions and law-making plans, and focus mainly on the main idea. (I think the ACA will work fine once outrageous medical costs are brought under control but he doesn’t seem to see that.) He is, and continues to be, a work-in-progress president.
