You must be really furious about the 4+ years of Trump's trips to Mar-a-Lago that you have to pay for, then.

Healthcare is going to be the death of the Repugs, (like that term), can't wait for them to scr*w over the very ppl that voted for them. We all know how many Trump supporters are benefitting from Obamacare, but didn't even realize it. The fact that so many trump supporters are knocking it is a telling sign how little they know what it has done for us Americans and what it will mean without it.

When I was having my taxes done last week my tax preparer warned me that they are hearing that if the GOP actually does repeal the ACA, everyone who received a subsidy through an exchange would have to pay that subsidy back. I expressed doubt that even Trump would be that stupid and she replied that that's the information that is floating around among the tax professionals right now.

We're talking thousands of dollars for an average subsidy. THAT will go over well in all those red states where many of his supporters are happily benefiting from Obamacare.

Now that the Donald has figured out that Health Care Legislation and the planned dismantling of Obamacare is really complicated (who knew) I can barely wait for what he and his repub knuckledraggers are going to come up with to "Repeal and Replace" a program that affects about 1/6 of the US economy.
They just released something...

IMO it's time for an optional Medicare for All program similar to what they have in Canada. Every citizen, everywhere, at any age. If someone wants to pay $1,500/month per person for a private insurance plan they can but the government plan will be available for all citizens at any age.

so what do you think what these worthless leeches do when they are sick? I guess in your opinion they just sit back and wait to be done at home I don't know when people like you are going to learn something.
