doesn’t go far enough - I would’ve been better off w/ ACA if my employer didn’t offer coverage (small company of <50 people), but switching would’ve eliminated my employer contribution and the credit
goes too far - too opinionated about what care counts
The proper solution IMO would’ve been to:
separate health insurance from employment - employers can offer cash incentives, but you should be able to choose if you want their group coverage or to apply the cash to your own plan
simplify healthcare coverage terms - most people don’t understand their health coverage, though ACA plans are a bit easier to understand; they should have required all health insurance plans to simplify their coverage
expand Medicare/Medicaid instead of creating a new healthcare marketplace
But no, they didn’t do any of that. Screw everyone involved. Republicans for neutering the bill, and Democrats for only fighting for the stuff that doesn’t matter as much.
