DESCRIPTION:Although designed to make health insurance at last accessible 
 to all\, the Affordability Care Act (ACA) entrenches categorical inequalit
 ies between types of qualified and unqualified immigrants\, further relega
 ting the latter to the margins of society where a large pool of cheap labo
 r with few rights toil. We recast Tilly’s theory of durable inequalities
  to help analyze this legacy and its manifestations in the ACA. Legal and 
 organizational features of the ACA reflect a long history of institutional
  discrimination dating back to measures taken by the Confederate states to
  exclude and disqualify ex-slaves from federal programs designed to help t
 hem and others.
