And to think how hard Obama worked to pass the ACA. I guess it’s simply the byproduct of a failed venture on a very large scale, by a man who has never successfully run a lemonade stand, let alone a real job.
Here’s the genetically modified Mike Pence promising to repeal the shit storm that is Obamacare.

This follows an earlier tweet storm by the President Elect, describing how wretched and rotten Obamacare is and how premiums and skyrocketing.
Republicans have been nothing but whiney little bitches over the ACA since day 1. The ACA is lame but I see no leadership in the constant bitching coming from the right.
The GOP and the whole Right Wing “lead” by bashing liberals. But bashing and scapegoating liberals is not going to get anything constructive done about health care for people.
It’s easy to criticize. It’s easy to get upset and to whine like a baby, and then to call liberals snowflakes when they are the ones who are upset about something.
It’s a lot harder to get constructive things done than it is to criticize.
Greedy stock traders spending their time buying and selling 4 letter symbols are out of touch with the people that really need the ACA. What kind of prosperous society leaves their lower income citizens, people who often work two jobs and 70 hour weeks, out in the cold with respect to healthcare for their families?
the U.S.A. will now, apparently.
Finally I agree with something you say. Yes a Great nation should have a Great healthcare system for its citizens. We need a solution that actually works. The Dems and Repubs are to blame. Let’s start with having healthcare insurance across all states like auto insurance! That would be a start but nooo, the special interest fucks don’t want that!
They already had medicaid. ACA did literally zero for the demographic that you describe. The only change is that the middle class was effectively included in a medicaid like program except with twice the normal premium. Those “lower income citizens still pay what they paid before ACA……zero.
This is absolutely true.
We have to pass it so you can find out what’s in it. Fuck you bitch. Who wants to work with dems after that shit? I can’t wait until that smug look get wiped from her face
Unless Trump and company figure out how to do something more constructive about health care than bash liberals, then liberals will continue to have every reason to be smug. But actually very few of us are smug, especially when compared to Right Wing fake news believers.
25% of $ spent on healthcare is wasted in this country and we spend far too much to begin with. ACA premiums are high for the value a typical family receives. These policies are basically catastrophic insurance which is nice when you need it to avoid bankruptcy. They really don’t help reduce normal medical care expenses. People have been conned. .
Ryan Paul looks like he just woke up from a night of binge drinking.

Maybe I’m the one who just woke up from boozing..
Reality will smack republicans in their righteous faces once they start dismantling insurance that covers 20 million people.
A great country should take care of its poor, and the repubs should tread lightly on this issue. However, 20 million is an inflated number due to mis-classification by the ACA architects themselves:
“Dividing Gruber’s estimate of the percentage gain in coverage of Medicaid enrollees who were eligible before the ACA by the percentage gain in coverage attributable to Medicaid overall means that 70% of new Medicaid enrollees in 2014 were eligible for the program under pre-ACA rules.”

We have to pass it before we can find what’s in side it.
Classic.
No rebuttal for that. Lol
You really can’t make his shit up

That was the tell right there. The Head Witch Pelosi at least gave us a warning of the grand screwing business and the public were going to get! LOL My healthcare insurance company just dropped my state. How nice and wonderful!
chuck, mic drop and listen to the silence…how many people let their insurance go because it became unaffordable if you work? Crickets… There are plenty of easy fixes such as tort reform and malpractice reform….not to mention the non-profit hospitals building more and more buildings and paying their non doctor executives millions of dollars in salaries and benefits…. AHA/Obamacare was a scam…
I wish the other executive order Trump issues is eliminating the lifetime secret service protection that Obama put in place, they can afford to pay for it themselves…who is out to off Jimmy Carter? He knows he will need it and decided we should pay for it…fuck that…
I didn’t know he did that. Makes sense he would.
They can all afford it, except for maybe Carter. But like you said, who wants to screw with him?

Maybe we can have a healthcare system that treats men like people too. The feminist special interest groups took over the entire legislation.
First and foremost, why is it that women pay the same premium as men, when women go to the doctor something like 5x more often than men.
Men have to pay more for car insurance due to the expected cost to the insurance company. Women she have to pay extra for health care at certain ages.
In addition, why are birth control pills free, yet no coverage for condoms?
The list goes on and on.
