Why do Republicans sabotage Obamacare - then say it's failing?

I'd rather they pay their own bill like I pay mine. You people are the ones who decided the taxpayers would pick up the tab when you backed EMTALA. Now you're complaining about it. There is nothing that says the taxpayer have to cover the cost. You choose to cover it.

It's the law.

Damn right it is. So why are you guys on the Left spewing this bullshit crap about people dying in the streets? We've got ERs and other venues for people to get treatment even if they can't pay for it. Why do you keep spreading these absolute lies?

Duh, because ER treatment is much more expensive - and those costs are spread among those with insurance.
again, there are urgent care facilities. why can't they use them? there are doctors offices? why can't they schedule their visits? why is everything need to be on their time?

m'k..... what does your dr. charge & how much would you have to shell out if you didn't have insurance? i'll wager around $200 for a dr's visit & about $100 for a walk in clinic.

you got that lying around?
I do, I have thousands. if I didn't have to pay $500 a month for insurance I'd have $5000 at my disposal. If I banked that $5K I'd have 10K the following year (HSA) tax free. And you're against that. wow.
 
How is that....since everything he did is gone? By the way...what was his name again.....I just know the things people will remember about him is he gave Iran Nuclear weapons, and had a funny sounding name....

oh even you can't really believe that. cough up a verifiable non biased link.

not infowars, not gateway pundit, not brietbart, american thinker, newsmax.................
what you want CNN? LOL. what a bunch of libturd fkwads.

from any non biased source. surely one can be found.
suuuuuuurrrrrrrreeee because you get to decide who that is.

i want to see who what where when why how & back up confirmation from eye witness & govt officials.

if that's too hard for kirk, , then i will call bullshit.
and yet one anonymous source has you believing russia russia. wow. why don't you have some integrity and demand the same from our investigative agencies? I do.
 
I Don't Know How To Explain To You That You Should Care About Other People

I Don't Know How To Explain To You That You Should Care About Other People

Yes, you're very caring about other people when you're spending other people's money.

Would you rather spend more when they go to the Emergency Room?

HSA limit is 2500 now. it hasn't been 5K for a couple years. i am not against that- we have one. i object that you cannot roll it over after a couple months into the new year.

pull the law. that doesn't answer his question.

Pull the law? How about pulling the law that all religious institutions are tax-exempt. That would provide more than enough money to care for sick people.

Is this possible, that insurance companies got greedy & Started denying claims,cutting benefits, that employers stopped or reduced insurance coverage. that bankrupts went up due to some thing like your child got cancer. and the government thought it could help fix the problem. and because we refuse to work together that we get one health care bill that needed a lot of work, fought against, trashed, not even tried to fix now being replaced by a just as bad bill with no input from any one but insurance co & well health care covered senators.
 
if you didn't have insurance nor the cash to outright pay, then the ER was the place to go because they cannot turn you away. they will do the barest of bones care for you & everybody who does have insurance ends up paying for it thru ridiculous bills charged them.

People on Medicaid are still going to the ER

And since when did you guys ever give a crap about expenses. Yeah, the GOP doesn't either apparently and that's a problem but don't be trying to tell anybody the libdems have the high moral ground about less spending.

Dems have always had the higher moral ground on health care and civil rights. Google it...

Damn right it is. So why are you guys on the Left spewing this bullshit crap about people dying in the streets? We've got ERs and other venues for people to get treatment even if they can't pay for it. Why do you keep spreading these absolute lies?

Duh, because ER treatment is much more expensive - and those costs are spread among those with insurance.

Yes it is, but that doesn't answer the question for why you Lefties are spreading the bullshit lies about people dying in the streets from treatable diseases. And since when did you guys ever give a crap about expenses. Yeah, the GOP doesn't either apparently and that's a problem but don't be trying to tell anybody the libdems have the high moral ground about less spending.

Dems have always had the higher moral ground on health care and civil rights. Google it...

if you didn't have insurance nor the cash to outright pay, then the ER was the place to go because they cannot turn you away. they will do the barest of bones care for you & everybody who does have insurance ends up paying for it thru ridiculous bills charged them.

People on Medicaid are still going to the ER

i didn't say it would stop. they will go whether medicaid pays for them or not. sure, you would think that they wouldn't... but your final bill won't be as high if they are on medicaid...
