The ACA was directionally correct in terms of the individual mandate though, and hard enough to pass as it was. I would expect with a Hillary presidency we'll see more progress made towards separating employment and healthcare.

If you're not going to go to either single payer or at least include a public option (i.e. buy into the equivalent of public Medicare) then it's all a way to force people to send money to insurance companies. The Dems had a supermajority in the senate but either didn't have the balls to do the right thing, or, more likely, just wanted to suck up to their corporate interests. > I would expect with a Hillary presidency we'll see more progress made towards separating employment and healthcare. Ha! I'm sure she'll be just as tough on Wall street too.
