First, I'd bet my life in exchange for a quarter, that's not what you said when unemployment dropped when your hero was president.

Might not be their dream job, but it's better than no job, unless (like you, apparently) you don't see inherent dignity and value in a day's pay in return for a day's work.

The ACA absolutely had a significant impact on slowing the rise of health care costs exactly as it was designed to do. Trump has effectively and intentionally broken the system and the markets are poised to respond against the consumer.
This is going to be a huge issue in the mid-terms.
