Ahh, good, parsing words. I can tell you have a lot of useful and interesting things to say. So tired of people trying to pass off pseudointellectual pedanticism as useful or additive insight.

My position is that they differentially collect data and that their version of that data collection is worse . It's almost like that's way I've been talking solely about that for the entire thread, in spite of your attempt

A family making 40k a year qualifies for significant benefits and subsidies, even today. But don't let not knowing what you're talking about stop you from angrily talking about it.

You were working at a FAANG and had the enhanced subsidies? That strikes me as complete bullshit and non sequitur to the post. ACA plans and LG/SG plans are not the same, and pretending they are is, frankly, a large part of why healthc
