The ACA was first proposed by Richard Nixon. It was codified by the same Heritage Foundation that produced "Project 2025" and protoyped by Mitt Romney in Massachusetts. It's nothing like an actual Democratic project (Medicare), and Obama even turned down the public option--a chance to buy into Medicare--because he'd made a deal with Big Pharma. I've even read he campaigned for the Senate on single-payer Medicare-for-All, but did an about face because he was concerned all those health insurance workers would be unemployed. (Hint: the Feds could have employed them to help run expanded Medicare, but the plutocrats in the C-Suite would have had a pay cut.)
Now...notice the cost savings (NOT!)
