WTF are you babbling about? $100 million to inform people about something that has been around since 2009? If people aren't aware by now then no amount of money will help them. Of course obfuscation is par for the course in the ACA.

It's a liberal conspiracy!! We must have higher drug prices and not letting uninsured know about ACA plans to compliment these changes. How DARE the elite liberals and their Gay frog water!

We had a bill that would have allowed people to purchase lower cost prescriptions out of Canada. That could have passed but the (D)'s helped defeat it.

Now we have a bill with a ton of pork that the (D)'s know is going nowhere.

Yes, the Republicans are pos where health Care is concerned. No way to defend them there. The (D)'s did nothing here though but pass a bill to push politics.
^^^Boom. Nailed it.

That legislation was never designed to pass but rather as a political attack.

Next the R's will come out with a bill proposing stiff penalties for feeding children to wolves and a side item banning abortion. When the D's vote it down they'll have their partisan hack sites create articles about democrats being ok with feeding children to wolves.

End result, nobody from either party was actually serious about passing that legislation.

183 Republicans vote against making prescription drugs cheaper

If the had not combined the two bills.....lowering drug costs would have passed almost unanimously

Wait?


Wasn't Obamacare, still the law of the land, supposed to make health care better by eliminating this sort of thing?


Democrats can't keep it straight. They were for Obamacare before they were against it.
