The ACA is good because it banned several horrible things, but it could be better. (lemmy.world)

The ACA is not good. It was a clear example of our political system failing and capitulating to capital interests and the fact that it exists and is in fact arguably the only liberal polical "success" in my lifetime is emblematic of the utter and complete failure of the American political system.

Yeah but people like you talk about it in a way that misses the important point fucking entirely. The ACA is the best the Republicunt party would let Obama get away with at the time, and they fought like hell against it.

Though the Republican party does seem to be getting away with a fucking lot these days...
