This is real freedom right there for the elderly. According to the CBO, headed by a republican, a 64-year old has to pay $14 600 for insurance under Trumpcare. Today, he or she pays $1700 on average. The young healthy generations are compelled to subsidize the elderly under the current mandate system. Thats what insurance is. The healthy subsidize the sick. Just like the drivers with no accidents subsidize the ones who do get into accidents.

Trumpcare would devastate rural, elderly America. Thats freedom right there.

Horrible. The idea of retirement is becoming a pipe dream for many Americans under Trump system.

People only like the subsidies they get.

Collectively, young people hate being forced to buy health insurance which subsidizes the elderly but want free college subsidized by the elderly. Farmers are often Republicans who hate subsidies except farm supports.

Well, Newt Gingrich is on the case - he suggests abolishing the CBO. As mature of a reaction as could be expected.

Wait, we are suppose to believe and accept a tweet by a journalist and digital production manager of the Daily Show as some evidence of a health care insurance that has not even been completed much less put into action.

Don't worry, Trump will bring jobs back so the 64-yr-old can continue to work until he/she dies.

Make America Great Depression Again!

Trumpcare? Trump hasn't made a proposal.

It's Ryancare.

I think it will be the name of his book which he will write about his life in the White House.
