A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Even before Obama care, it was actually a better system but not much changed afterwards

Obamacare was crap , and a massive giveaway to the private insurance industry (though, it was not Obama who killed the Public Option, that honor goes to Joe Lieberman), but in no universe was it a better system before that.

I don't disagree. VT's system was miles better without the intervention.
