Was ACA meant to make insurance companies rich?

Luigi is a murderer. ...And so was Brian Thompson.
In his defense Luigi did bring some of the problems with the US healthcare system to everyone's attention. All Thompson did was deny care to help shareholders.
We have a corrupt, broken, expensive system. Most of the developed world has figured out how to improve healthcare for their citizens. The US system only helps to line the pockets of for-profit greed fkrs, while generally making actual healthcare inefficient and complicated.
The ACA did not make healthcare more affordable for most people, the Medicaid expansion did that. But the ACA was somewhat successful at making healthcare accessible for more people. Now thanks to MAGA and the Big BS Act, most gains that DID exist will be lost. And more people will needlessly go bankrupt and/or die. ...But I bet you're cheering for that.

And what happens when a corporation takes a financial hit? Do they cut executive pay, or raise prices on consumers?

Obama signed the Affordable Care Act.
So Trumpy just signed the Unaffordable Care Act.
Now we finally know what Trumpy's "concept of a plan" was.
To somehow make Healthcare unaffordable again!!

In America, healthcare is a business. Never forget that. It didn't and doesn't have to be that way.

Insurance is not health care. It's the preventer of health care.

Obviously you have no experience with health care and insurance or anyone that works in health care.

I was a Trustee of a multi-billion dollar Pension and Health Fund, after serving for over two decades on Health Insurance committees.
You were saying?

Yeah which is why liberals want to get rid of it. Why do conservatives stand in the way?
