For better or worse it was his flagship legislation.

I don't really care though, it isn't a laziness competition.

For better or worse it was his flagship legislation.

Here's a refresher for you on which branch does what. (Hint: the President is the Executive branch, and Congress is the Legislative branch).

USA.gov - Branches of Government

And here's more about the ACA, including who introduced it to Congress...I'll give you a hint, it wasn't Obama.

Affordable Care Act - Wikipedia

I understand it is commonly referred to as one of his flagship policies, but my point is that he is one person in a much larger process. Do you disagree?

I don't really care though, it isn't a laziness competition.

No competition, I was asking what the difference between the two were. You seemed to have no problem stating your opinion when the question was directed at someone else, so I wanted to give you a platform to continue with your thoughts, feelings, and opinions on that subject to expand the discussion. But like you said, 'I don't really care though'.

I remember having these kinds of arguments in 2015.

Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
  8. All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.
