The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has been a polarizing issue for many—and that's apparent when you look at how states are reacting to health care reform.

Half now face a federally run health care exchange, the default for states that haven't made progress or declined involvement in setting up a state run marketplace for health insurance coverage.
Officials at the National Association of Insurance Commissioners even warn it's too late to start a state-based exchange if work hasn't already been underway for a while.
