“Obongocare” also reeks of racism, but that’s a given- it is 4chan after all.

one of them is health insurance

Oh, definitely. And having 2 part time jobs, if you can manage it, often means you end up working more hours (25+25), and are still not given the benefits of a full time employee because you aren't technically full time anywhere. It's terrible and for what it's worth I do feel bad for anon here. They are drinking the right wing kook aid, which sucks, but it's an awful position to be in. There's comments calling them a moron or that they just have to make minor changes etc, but the reality is, especially in these small towns, there's not a lot of options and acting like it's the fault of individuals is really missing the point.

For what it's worth, Obamacare did technically add to the employer burden by making good healthcare a mandatory offering for full time employees, so I understand why some people have convinced themselves it's the ACAs fault, but employers were doing the 25 hours thing to skirt other benefits way before Obamacare.

We were paid 19/h doing barista work working 30-39 hours (never allowed to hit 40 because they would have to give us more rights blah blah stuff) had to live in a tiny illegal room for rent and was barely surviving. After we saved up a little bit of money we moved into a van and now we’re in EU.

Mind you, not flashily, not rich, not even making it. Had to get so much help friends and family and especially our significant other just to get here by the skin of our teeth and now that we’re here we’re struggling to even stay due to visa issues. So fucn scared to go back we literally cry almost nightly every day our last chance to stay here slips away only because we just need 1500€ euro more… hhh when will this stress end?
