In her interview with Diane Sawyer on the day after her convention speech, The First Lady listed some of her husband's accomplishments.
One she mentioned was that they were able to give young people, up to the age of 26, the ability to stay on their parents' health insurance.
I think I would have preferred that they accomplished an increase in productivity and a boost to the economy that allowed 22-26 year olds the ability to pay for their own health insurance. THAT would be an accomplishment!
I just don't agree that enabling young people to be dependent on their parents longer is something that should be considered progress.
And I certainly wouldn't be proud to list it as an "accomplishment".
