9. Does the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act pro- vide health care insurance to every individual living in the United States? Why or why not?

No, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) does not provide health care insurance to every individual living in the United States. While it aimed to increase access to affordable health insurance, it didn't establish universal coverage. Instead, it introduced measures like the individual mandate, insurance exchanges, and Medicaid expansion to expand coverage but not to cover every individual.
