Biden, as part of the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, largely resolved these problems, reducing maximum premium payments (net of subsidies) and eliminating the cliff at 400 percent. The result is to make health insurance coverage substantially more affordable, especially for middle-income Americans who previously earned too much to be eligible for subsidies. Hence the surge in marketplace enrollments.

Fucking election year, everybody fire up the spin. I hate politics :/
This is wildly better than whatever shit the repub propaganda machine is gonna fart out though, so I reckon I'll be avoiding Facebook and YouTube for a bit ;)
This is an article discussing things Biden's administration have accomplished during his term.
The GOP equivalent is shit like "the Democrats will take your guns" or "millions of brown people are threatening to invade the southern border".
Ideally, the constituency would pay attention to the things the government does all the time and remember that when it comes to elections. But no one fucking does, so the public needs articles to remind them. Even if only like 30% of eligible voters end up voting.
This is exactly the kind of article that I would expect in the election year of a functioning democracy. The Republicans should be touting their own accomplishments too. Like Republican Chip Roy has been doing.
They're too invested in hate over anything else to have a positive vision for the nation
Holding peoples livelihoods, their health, and rights hostage for votes and power is disgusting
I'm all for democracy, but I think that this is sadly the end result - When governing becomes the goal, governance takes the back seat. Being president or prime minister is simply too lucrative.
They aren't actually doing much... This is something they did a while ago, they're just trotting it out and showing it off because there isn't anything current going on.
I think I’m confused. How is this spin?
Maybe we have different definitions of spin. To me, accurately discussing the political accomplishments of one politician over another is good in a functioning democracy.
