Hillary Clinton says ACA discourages full-time employment
The Democratic frontrunner admitted her admiration for Beyoncé while she was at a town hall and was asked a question that was a little out of the ordinary: “If you could choose, would you rather be the president or Beyoncé?”.
In September, Clinton further attached herself to the law saying that if she became president that she would not repeal it, as many Republican candidates have said they would.
It wasn’t your average campaign trail question that Hillary Clinton faced in Iowa City on Wednesday.

“I really worry about it because there is a trend to try and move more and more people into part-time work”, Clinton said.
She then went on to sing Beyonce’s well-deserved praises, saying, “I’ve actually seen Beyonce in a live performance. Even when I was a way lot younger, it wasn’t in the cards for me”.
“You know, we’ve got to change that, because we have built in some unfortunate incentives that discourage full-time employment”, she added. “She’s just awesome”, she continued. I mean, really. She sings, she’s up, she’s down. “It’s just incredible. So it’s just not in my astrological reading, I think”, the former secretary of state said, before steering the conversation back on point.
“I want to be as good a president as Beyoncé is a performer”, she finally concluded.
