Imagine if the democratic party was as sneaky, underhanded, dubious, and shit to carry out their evil agendas of allowing people to live a quiet life of acceptance and without major medical complications bankrupting them while they enjoy a little more time off with better pay.
Maybe if they were, then one of those plans might actually happen instead of the almost nothing we've been getting. They're too afraid of angering people who WIL NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER vote Democrat anyway.
Yeah, no. While significantly better than the previous system, the ACA was a huge giveaway to the medical insurance industry.
Which makes sense when you consider how the corporate Dems recieve more in legal bribes from that same industry than Republicans do.
That thing that Republicans crippled at every opportunity? The poor replacement for universal Healthcare that had to be put out because actual Healthcare reform won't happen in current times without people ignoring the stupid minority who doesn't understand that true universal healthcare will eventually SAVE money on Healthcare for everyone in the US, including what you pay in taxes.
Fuck all the way off with "both sides" bullshit. Only one side wants me and mine dead.
Not all criticism of corporate democrat greed is "both sidesing". It's a fact that they are raking in tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars in legal bribes from the insurance industry every election season.
It's also a fact that the ACA passed with 0 Republican votes, meaning that the ones who were responsible for making it extremely lucrative for the donors and not universal single payer were all democrats.
Just because the ones on the other side of the aisle are much worse (and I'll not for a second deny that. They're a literal fascist party) doesn't mean that the DNC leadership cares more about you than their owner donors.
Biden even said that he would veto M4A, based on a false talking point directly from PHRMA.
