You could afford shelter…during the 2008 housing driven financial crisis? Everyone could afford shelter…until the system collapsed. That was kind of the whole problem. I fail to see how the ACA being passed caused your housing and food prices to go up.
Glad that you had employment based insurance. Before the ACA if you didn’t have insurance through your employer and you had conditions you were just fucked. They could deny your coverage. I guess you forgot about that?
Insurance is fucked because we’re finally paying the cost of care, rates and prices are fucked and broken across the board, and the insurance companies are savage vultures. None of that is BECAUSE of the ACA. It was all true before the ACA and is true now. The difference is millions more people have healthcare coverage.
So the ACA was a half measured failure of a waste of time.
Yes.
That was part of the point I was making.
Dems decided to do that instead of passing actual universal Healthcare, or minimum wage, or modifying Roe v Wade. Or addressing the rising cost of rent/mortgage. Or do ANYTHING of value.
Yeah I guess the GOP is blameless for all that right? Seriously the amount of leeway you people give the republicans is wild. The democrats are to blame for those things? The GOP voted unanimously against the ACA in all its forms and tried for a decade to repeal it. But sure the democrats not going far enough was the grievous sin.
You are wonderful at goalposts moving and refusing to stay on track. Just all the other Fascist Dem Shills.
This is a conversation about Democrats failure to increase minimum wage during their supermajority, but instead they spent all the time fining broke unemployed Americans for not being able to afford health insurance out of pocket.
Both parties have created this situation.
That is what I am saying.
“Vote blue no matter who, no matter what genocide, and everything will magically get better” is horse shit, and recent history shows that.

God forbid anything help anyone if it’s not perfect. What a privileged fucking outlook on life. Some of us have to live here, yeah?
