I've had really bad arthritis since my early teens and when the ACA finally passed I got insurance. Went to a hand specialist and the bones in 3 fingers had dissolved to the point of needing amputation. Dr was like, why did you wait so long to see us? Bro! I'm an American, that's why.
if you weren’t paying for your own health insurance in the 2000’s, i just honestly don’t give a single damn what you think about the ACA or it’s shortcomings at the time it went into effect, and if you don’t know anyone on medicaid, i also don’t give a single damn what you think about it now.
