"That wasn't intended in the ACA so you can't blame the ACA".

I'm quite sure I didn't claim or suggest that the demise of employer health care benefits would not be attributable to PPACA. I wrote simply that they are different entities, related, but different. That there may be a causal relationship between them, as you suggest, is evidence that they are two different things.

We can assess whether employer health care benefits are a net positive or a negative independent of PPACA. We can assess PPACA independent of our assessment of any unintended consequences of it. Health care financing in the US is a huge and complicated matter. When analyzing huge and complicated matters, they have to be broken down to achieve any understanding. Understand the components, understand the relationships among the components, and you have a fighting chance. Mash it all together and there is no chance.
