Screw the people who need health care, let's build a wall, and make it pretty (for us! sod the people who have to see it from the other side). |
Randall | You still have Obamacare, so why are you complaining? |

You cheered letting it fail. |
Catalina | Yes only goldplating will do.. we are Amuricans after all, the streets are paved with gold.. |
Randall | Obamacare has already failed. Millions have lost coverage. Millions more have insurance that they can't afford to use. Sounds like a rousing success to me. |
teasel | Smirk, smirk. If it's already failed, then why were you cheering about letting it fail, and letting everything burn? |
Catalina | Once again believing the hyperbole gets you ahead of yourself http://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/08/01/us/politics/senators-launch-bipartisan-effort-to-shore-up-obamacare.html? |
Randall | I said if they want to keep Obamacare, let them keep it. Is that cheering? |
Catalina | From a former insurance CEO When confronted with the dire projections about how their bill will make insurance unaffordable for their constituents, most of the representatives who voted for the bill often echo a line that Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan, Secretary of Health and Human Services Tom Price and Trump have used repeatedly: that the Affordable Care Act is in a so-called "death spiral" that will inevitably "explode," so they need to pass a bill, no matter how terrible, before it does. That narrative is patently false. In fact, most of the instability driving up premiums in the marketplace can be directly traced to Republicans' efforts to undermine the health care law for their own political purpose.. https://www.usnews.com/opinion/policy-dose/articles/2017-05-30/republicans-raised-your-health-care-premiums-not-obamacare?context=amp |
