No one deserved to be lied to.
Oh please! Anyone with the sense God gave a wheelbarrow (TM Don) can tell Trump is a con-man. I have exactly zero empathy for his idiot followers who voted against their interests.

Frankly, I hope that is a very bitter pill for them...

I guess AHCA stands for American Holocaust Care Act! Stick the old people in nursing homes in an oven to give tax breaks to the rich! No maternity benefits for Medicaid!

I guess I'll become a Health Care Practitioner of some sort. After the Donald and Repubics do away with all of those "unnecessary gubmint regulations" ...like going to medical school to practice medicine, I'll do c-sections cheap! All you need is a sterile pocket knife and a couple of you tube videos and you're an expert! All for $499! How hard could it be? Make a 4 inch cut to the skin, make a 4 inch cut through the muscle, reach in and pull the kid out by the head! If you pull too hard and the head comes off, she can try again in 9 months! Voila!

I can do abortions cheap with a Dandelion remover from Walmart!

Making America Great Again ...right? What could go wrong?

Because he is a mean spirited member of the ruling donor class disconnected from the struggles of ordinary Americans, the disabled, the poor, the elderly, the infirm and is seeking to enrich himself and his cronies in the process.

The report estimates premiums will increase in 2018 by 20 percent and by 10 percent in 2019. In 2020, premiums would be about 30 percent lower than under ObamaCare and 20 percent by 2026.
So I guess essentially, people who can afford insurance can save money by kicking the neediest people off and letting them die or get sicker.
What f@cked up piece of legislation is this.

A 60 yr old making 26k a year in the richest country in the world would pay 13-16k a year in premiums under the new law.

Sad, embarassing. These people will not get health care but will show up in the ER when crap hits the fan and we will all be paying for their treatment at the highest rate and less chance of survival.

Sad what we are lowering ourselves as a country.
