Nothing to see here folks.
No trump personal family relations expecting to make bank bc they know the GOP won't repeal Obama care.
No sir. What cronyism?

As Federal Government Cuts Obamacare Ads, Private Insurer Steps Up
Health insurance company Oscar has started its own ad campaign for the Affordable Care Act.
Oscar Health
Open enrollment for Affordable Care Act insurance doesn't start for another six weeks. But the quirky insurance startup Oscar Health is launching an ad campaign Monday aimed at getting young people to enroll.
The company is boosting its ad spending after the Trump administration announced it would slash its ACA advertising budget by 90 percent.
On Monday morning, commuters in New York City were met with posters blanketing the subway system that showed actual Oscar customers touting the benefits of having insurance coverage.
One poster shows a pregnant woman holding her belly with a bandage on it that says "we're covered."
Oscar Vice President Sara Rowghanisays the company is stepping up in part because the government is pulling back.
"Particularly in this year of uncertainty, it's really important for us to be in market early and and reassure the 22 million folks that are insured that it is really important to get covered," she tells Shots.
Rowghani says the early message focuses on reminding people about open enrollment. The ads include the dates enrollment starts and ends, with the Oscar logo much less prominent.

Your paranoia is hillarious

Maybe I'm missing something here but Chromism would be more akin to getting the Government to pay for adds for a business you have ties to, not getting business to pay for adds out of their own pocket.

Oh the humanity! The ACA is a failure and needs to be put down. Maybe, since trump has "ties" to Oscar, the left will turn their backs on the ACA and see it for the abomination it is!

Then why did he slash the ad funding, forcing the company to spend its own money? That's what the poster said.

What are those ties?
Are we talking impeachment or that he sold a condo to an executive 20 years ago?

This is fricking sad.
Somehow a company "with ties to Trump" is getting the extreme benefit of paying for ads they were not paying for before and this is a real zinger conflict of interest?
That does not even make any fricking sense.
Now the "bombshells" are incoherent in addition to being small.

Your OP makes no mention of Trump. If you want us to engage in faux outrage with you, you should at least tell us what we should pretend to be upset about.
I need a little more than "something, something, blah TRUMP!!! blah, something, something" if you want me to feign outrage with you.
But to answer your question... Because companies normally pay for ads with their own money?

Which makes it better that he doesn't let the government continue to use taxpayer money to make ads
It would be a conflict to do otherwise
