      Solidarity with unions makes sense as long as they show solidarity with other workers. Looking into many examples, police union, teamster, teacher union during covid, ... you realize they too live in neoliberal era: they represent narrow special interests. They act as shareholders of a company.

      i know we’re talking about the ACA but this was true for me and my bestfriend for ARPA. dv shelters were flush with cash for prob the first time ever. This meant i could flee with my dog and cat without a 10 month waitlist and traveling 300 miles. they covered a ~year of her and her kids rent.
    
        
      My best friend was able to leave her abusive husband because the ACA made it possible for her to still get health insurance
