they don't want higher taxes they want someone else to pay for it. liberals typically don't pay taxes that's why they're so free and easy with other peoples money.

Government assumptions are always total BS.

Wait so the ones who accrue the most healthcare costs must pay the most? Interesting idea...maybe we should give it a shot

FALSE! Old Americans are on Medicare! Poor Americans are on Medicaid! Under the AHCA as proposed, 33% of the population would see a 20% decrease in policy costs. An additional 50% would see a 5% decrease. Most of the remainder would see no change. So 80% would enjoy cost decreases.


They can't handle the truth....

That is bullshite first off.

Second, the whole point of insurance is to quantify risk. As an older person I SHOULD pay more than my 20 something nieces and nephews.

The idiocy of people who do not understand what insurance is astounds me.

We are a nation of the willfully ignorant and or stupid governed by a completely corrupt media/pop culture complex.

Has BamaAtl been here to tell us that it will also literally cause people to fall over dead in the streets from a lack of insurance?

This is a clusterfrick of colossal, gargantuan, EPIC proportions

I don't know the numbers, but I would guess old, poor Americans pay very little under the current setup. Basically nothing for a lot of them. An 850% increase probably isn't as much as it sounds if you look at the actual $ amount.

They don't need to make honest arguments. Their dishonest ones work just fine and the GOP is either too dimwitted or (more likely) just happy to be perpetual losers in the grand Harlem Globetrotter game that passes for our political system.

Considering Medicaire and Medicaid this would be correct. The only expense my mother has insurance wise is a Medicaire supplement, and it is very, VERY little.

Again correct. The left will put out a 850% increase to scare/shock people. If they put out an actual dollar amount it would be very little.

Well, when i was "poor", had VA care not disqualified me fro. A subsidy, i was going to get the gold BCBS plan for $18 a month, 900% increase would have put it at $162 which is still more than fair. If you cant afford 200 a month to take care of yourself you have bigger problems than mean ole Trump

I'm positive your link is bullshite, but it's pretty sickening the way libs have blown up healthcare to shift costs to younger people who are being forced by law to buy insurance, then have the gall to complain about people losing coverage they never wanted and cost allocations naturally self correcting as a result of having to fix the clusterfrick they created.

If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. Premiums will go down 2500 per year per family. I will take my chances with the bill from the billionaire businessman over what the Organizer in chief in regards to health care.
