It technically forbids insurance companies from denying coverage to people with pre-existing conditions, but clearly they just realized they can take our money then deny services instead.

Also it threw a bone to the insurance companies by fining anyone not covered by insurance - incentivising new customers to just pay for insurance instead.

So tbh it was indeed a flop imo

Not a flop at all. I used ACA for several years and was extremely glad to have it.
