She is exposing the issue to sunlight so congress can potentially fix it.

Why does someone forced to have coverage for pregnancy, maternity, newborn care, mental health, substance abuse disorders, and pediatric care when there is zero risk of these medical issues.

What exactly are we to disagree with Trump on here? Very specifically, please. Where does it say precisely what Trump’s decision or indecision was in this matter, ie an official decision or indecision, of record, so we can be sure to disagree with whatever it was to meet with your approval.

We are already broke. Losing more money each day.

Hopefully we’ll never be tricked again by someone going on and on about the “empathy deficit”. That SOB Obama divided the nation more than any other president in recent history.

I'm 64, bride is 61 and why do we need to pay for maternity, pregnancy, newborn care, and child care?

Your ghetto culture persona is slipping in this thread. When creating alters, it's important to switch user names between each persona.

You don't sound as "hard" as you pretended to be in the other thread.

I understand the argument. What do you cherrypick and takeaway from an overall plan.

The issue is that Obama care is provided by the monies from other Healthcare from the private sector

She agrees with Trump on everything except the following:

1. Bailing out Argentina.
2. Bombing Iran at the time and now happy the 12 Day War ended.
3. Foreign aid spending especially on Ukraine because its so huge.
4. Vocally promoting America First.

This is why she is getting a lot of hate from Trump supporters right now.

But on this healthcare insurance issue this is more of her calling out her fellow GOP colleagues in the House saying we need to do something about this because if we don't peoples' healthcare insurance premiums will drastically increase after the new year and we will be in big trouble for the Midterms.

To make it cheaper for the people that need these medical services. Karl Marx approves.

All due respect, you made the unreasonable leap from “Trump needs to act on this, preferably in a manner that coincides with my own opinions on the matter” to “these people aren’t gonna disagree with Trump.” Don’t be that guy. There are already plenty enough foot soldiers in that ill-equipped army.

How many are we talking here? Verifiably enough to go ahead with somewhat of a sweeping generalization, as you’ve made in its current form? Or could we possibly be looking at completely normal levels of hate that’s given and received on pretty much every single thing on earth?

So many people get burned by the Premium Tax "Credit" on their income returns. They think they're getting a credit, but they end up with nothing or owing money. Sometimes a great deal of money.

Yeh right, don’t look over in our ERs to see all the illegals getting free (taxpayer) healthcare.

Seems like property taxes. Adults with no kids paying to educate the kids other parents in the public school system.

I bet that's the reasoning behind the Obama administration mimicking taxes. Everyone pay in for everyone else...

That's a big problem driving up healthcare and thus health insurance costs.

Here's NBC talking about all of the illegals at NYC hospitals

Know how the hospitals get paid? EMTALA and emergency Medicaid. Neither require proof of residency so they get abused heavily.

The Kaiser Family Foundation and the CBO estimate that this care for illegals is roughly $4b/yr.

But of course you knew all of that most likely, it just doesn't help your narrative.

Welcome to the argument 15 years ago on here. We knew, we didn’t like it then and don’t like it now.

As far as Congress potentially “fixing” it ….
