    it’s better from the former system in the way that walking on glass is better than being on fire

    Unless you were unemployed or extremely poor, in which case there’s no difference

      How much that’s true is going to depend greatly on whether or not you live in a state that expanded Medicare. For my home red state, it’s basically the same as it was pre-ACA if you’re poor. Go pound sand, more or less. But in the blue state I live in now the Medicare expansion helps a lot of people. Definitely much less dire than pre-ACA, but still a lot wrong with it.

      But since the electoral college is controlled by the most unhinged and out of touch voters in the least educated states in the nation, sucks for us I guess.

        Go pound sand

        Pounding sand isn’t enough anymore. We need heads to roll.
