>>No, it's the argument from intimidation. And your last sentence there actually backs that up :)
Nope. Last sentence is ad hominem- unashamedly so. Also known as the "he would say that" observation. ;-)
>>On the entire cost issue, remember that increases in costs/spending were slowing and even flat-lining for a 2 year period before ACA passed. Even Obama's first budget director acknowledged that.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
