Why is it un-American? What will Trump replace it with?

precisely NOTHING. IOW what existed before EMTALA [the law that said ERs had to take all comers] was passed in the 80s. IOW the GOPers/MAGAs seeing people dying in the streets would give them their jollies.

Is un-American just a synonym for things they don't like?

It forced poor people to pay a $695 fine if they didn't buy health insurance (that they couldn't afford).

I never had to pay anything for my Molina coverage through the ACA.

How is that any different from penalising them for not paying their taxes?

Ezra and I have explained this to you ad nauseum.
a. You appear to get fully subsidized.
b. Most don't.
c. Here is a chart .. using a family of three ... at merely $25,000 household income .. $500 is not subsidized.
d. Here is a chart .. using a family of one ... at merely $15,000 household income .. $300 is not subsidized.

Why have sympathy for poor people about the ACA, when you otherwise think all they deserve is a kick in the a$$?

Rich people have insurance. They weren't the ones paying the penalty.
The ACA penalty was siphoning millions of dollars off poor/middle class people.
I care, because it's disgusting to have a law that penalizes people into buying something they may not want, may not need, and may not be able to afford.
