Am I the only one that thinks that the tax credits under the ACA have become a joke since 2014?

All knowledge is now Google-able, thus paying 80K in tuition really DOES sound like a rip-off. Unintended consequences. Our only future, honestly, is to go back to the PLUR principles of the early 90s lol.

I am thoroughly on board

A Bachelors degree should have been plenty to avoid a lifetime of menial jobs. But the good news is a healthy % of them offer insurance. WM insures half its employees-retail overall about 40%. Be one of the 40% or WM's 50%, if you want insurance w/o ACA.

Because there are so many of those out there, and so few qualified applicants....

Not for 30 years, having worked menial jobs. That is incredibly rare. If you said worked a year, perhaps 2, at menial jobs, then career level jobs, I would agree.


This is someone who for 3 decades never utilized the degree.

Read it as you wish, but it does not change your results. It is unfortunate you chose not to focus on that.

Yeah, funny isn't it, so many that we have to import workers.
