No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

You're way underestimating and underemphasizing Obamacare, and the impact it took to get it into law.
Obamacare was a huge get for the Democrats, and while it wasn't Medicare for all that we all wanted, especially with the Republicans fighting tooth and nail to deny him, that was a huge win.
It took a lot of effort in time to get Obamacare, which took all the oxygen out of the room for doing other things.

adding license to comments is nice touch but i don't think scrapper is gonna care
Yeah. Seems like a waste of effort to me. If they're scraping movies and books illegally then you aren't gonna stop em with a link at the bottom of a comment.
Best not to derail this topic. It's been discussed to death already.

Still going to poison the results and be embarrassing when the LLM starts putting creative commons licensing in its output.
😂 but I think 🤔 they have some cleaning process, I don't know exactly what is called but they remove all anomalies like this 😔. 👍 If this works

Yea, but propublica has money to hire lawyers and can actually take companies to court over it.
Are you prepared to shell out potentially 10's of thousands of dollars to actually defend your license? That's my biggest question in this, because if not it really is a waste of time and effort.
Well if the license is flagrantly ignored I'm sure Creative Commons would probably have something to say about it.
Having said that, I meant for you to also go to the top of that link conversation to read everything that's been discussed, including my answer to the question you just asked.
Also, we're really derailing the topic of the post.

I did, but you never really answer the question, are you financially prepared and willing to actually defend your license in court?
And also your link has become incredibly obnoxious, you don't need all those "~"
Look, it makes them happy, it's free, and it doesn't cost you anything. It just kinda doesn't seem like a big deal.
I should start posting ads and sponsors as my signatures with every comment. This is totally not the start of something awful. It makes me happy, it's free and doesn't cost anyone else anything.
Next I'm gonna post an image ad and randomise it. Maybe code bots to upvote it to the top. Ayy, you're on to something. 🤔

Okay?
I did, both in the link that I originally gave you, as well as replying to your comment directly.
That's a problem with your mobile client, you'll need to speak to the devs of your client about that.
It's not supporting subscript and superscript fonts correctly, per Lemmy's help page on formatting comments. Also discussed in that original link I gave you.
If we could stop derailing the current topic?

Between the time that Obama was sworn in and the ACA getting passed Congress had passed 161 other substantial bills. The major one that was shelved being the freedom of choice act which had already been written and waiting in a vote since 2003.
[citation required] (bolded part)
Also, it was all over the news and online and in papers that the ACA and trying to get it passed over the finish line was a lot of hard work, that took a lot of time and effort, that it 'sucked up all the oxygen in the room' for other stuff.

I think that is really the core of it.
I remember that it took months of discussions, compromises and buttering up specific opposition members to get it passed, and that it was a trimmed-down version of the original Medicare plans.
I wish I could remember where, but when answering a question very similar to the OP's - perhaps in an interview? - Obama explained that he would have very much liked to tackle two big things: health care and climate, but that his party's resources were stretched too thin to do both at the same time and that he knew they would loose control of the house in the midtems (2011), so he picked one thing.
