Politics always involves compromise. ACA and Dodd-Frank were improvements on the status quo, which is usually the best you can hope for. They do not need to be perfect to be good.
CHIPS was a typo. I meant to cite CHIP, which provides health care to children, not CHIPS.
Democrats compromise far more than republicans. ACA and Dodd-Frank are bandaids. You still see many suffer under the healthcare system in this country, meanwhile insurance companies post record profits. As for Dodd-Frank… you’ll see another “once-in-a-lifetime” economic meltdown soon, which will show how effective that legislation was.
Politics is the art of the possible. It is impossible for legislation to solve every problem. The ACA and Dodd-Frank didn’t solve every problem, but they did solve some. We are better off with them than without them. Even if they don’t stop the next catastrophe.
Democrats do compromise more than Republicans, which is exactly why they get more legislation passed than Republicans.
Getting more legislation passed doesn’t matter when that legislation does far less than the fewer pieces of legislation that the republicans can pass. Just look at the state of the country and tell me which party is winning.

Name two pieces of GOP legislation passed by Congress in the past 20 years that did more than the ACA and the IRA.
