In the USA, health insurance chained workers to jobs they hated.
Health benefits functions as a mechanism to suppress wage growth.
During the Great Resignation, many serfs were freed from these manacles and signed up for the ACA which allows workers to move to better paying jobs.
It allows job mobility & rising wage demands.
No wonder Republican megadonors hate the ACA.
