      Do you really think morality is not intertwined with the human lives at stake within this policy debate? How can you think that?

      That’s what I mean by stealing bases. You’re jumping from one place to another without doing the work to connect the dots

      I don't really accept your characterization of the effects of the ACA. Its effects are complicated, but it worked pretty well in urban and suburban areas and struggled in rural areas bc rural HC is REALLY hard, particularly as those areas are stagnating for other reasons.

      Let’s be clear. I’m not arguing against the ACA. I’m arguing against the idea that support for the ACA, or really any specific policy, is a reasonable proxy for moral or ethical behavior. You can be for expanding coverage and think the ACA is not a good law

      So, moralizing about universal health care generally is ok, but moralizing about the ACA specifically is not.

      I wouldn’t do either, but I’d say the former is more defensible

      It's ok to moralize about helping those less fortunate > universal health care helps those less fortunate > the ACA was the biggest incremental step forward that could be made to achieve universal health care.

      As far as I can tell, you wouldn't do anything but complain about ppl trying to get stuff done.

      If you want to believe that, that’s fine. It’s nonsense, but whatever. I don’t have to accept whatever BS comes out of Congress just cause it’s ‘the best they could do.’ I can’t change it, but I don’t have to give it my blessing

      I think doing the best we can do is good.

      I don’t disagree, but there’s a big space between ‘this is good’ and ‘not this is bad’ Giving all of your money to charity is good. But not giving all your money to charity doesn’t make you bad
