I like ACA, but... Hot take: The only reason ACA passed is because the government did not want to foot the entire healthcare bill for our aging boomer generation. So ACA became a way to partially distribute those costs to the rest of the US population by forcing them into a healthcare plan. Sure, in theory those forced into the ACA are protected from financial disaster in case they get sick, but in practice, the younger generation won't need healthcare for quite a long time, thereby once again kicking this can of worms down the road.
