House passes Big, Beautiful Bill

[Lisa558]

Pretty incredible that they could slash $500 billion from Medicare, $700 billion from Medicaid, $300 billion from SNAP, and still push up the deficit by $4 trillion.

That’s largely for not raising taxes back up on middle and working class.

 

[Lisa558]

again, they don't understand that tax cuts are expensive, doing nothing would double that figure. The item that demofks still can't comprehend. go fking figure. Hey demofks, stay stupid you useless fkers.

Good thing these stupid demofks lost.

I will tell you who, those that are enrolled in expanded Medicaid. The federal government subsidizes those who enroll in expanded Medicaid by paying 90% of the cost. That subsidy is going away. By law, in North Carolina, that means the expansion of Medicaid will be eliminated. Close to one million people will lose their coverage.

medicaid is a state's issue.

Additionally, there have been expanded subsidies to those that purchase health insurance on the exchange, through the ACA. Those subsidies are eliminated and beneficiaries will see massive rate increase after 2025. A significant number of them will drop that coverage when it is no longer affordable.

Again, why do you fkers think tax payers ought to fund lazy people who do nothing? and illegals.

The impact will be felt by everyone, not just those that lose their coverage. Rural hospitals will be forced to close. When North Carolina finally expanded Medicaid, emergency room visits dropped by 29%, drug overdose deaths dropped by 27%, those numbers will rise if this bill is signed into law.

why did emergency room visits drop?

Given how successive Republican Presidents continue to crash the stock market, you have to be a complete moron to keep money in the stock market with a Republican in the White House.

Of course voters continue to vote for Republicans to crash the economy so more than half of Americans are just that stupid.

But I thought rich people voted for Republicans? Rich people don’t have money in the markets? Who knew?

You guys need to get your narrative straight.

So happy that you got your shiny toy.

I'll take it as it is probably the only thing that really adheres to the constitution.

Chins up dude.

so again, don't act like you're an everything or nothing person like a demofk.

Saying that it's "expensive" for me to keep what's mine presumes that I don't own the fruits of my labor.

Back to the topic, there are ABSOLUTELY NO spending cuts in this ass raping of a spending bill, from a zero baseline....$2 trillion deficits continue....Social Security still taxed.

MAGA got chumped again.

FYI: Winston is the poster who claimed he has an MBA but refused to work because he wanted to have a low income to get his six (6!) kids on welfare. Take whatever he says with that knolwedge that he and his family are welfare leeches.

It keeps the tax cuts.
It has exemptions for taxation of overtime and tips.
It extends work requirements for able-bodied adults on Medi aid (without dependents).
It beefs up border and ICE agents.

What's in the other 1,000+ pages, you bloody fool?

What's in the other 1,000+ pages, you bloody fool?

I gave you the major points. Probably more than you knew before.

Remember like 6 months ago when Republicans whined about bills being too big and having too many elements? They’re always so full of shit.

Democrats are claiming that according to the non-partisan CBO, this bill will increase the income of the top 10% of Americans while hurting everyone else. Raising the SALT Cap to 40k certainly helped the top 10% and that was supported by RINOs and Democrats alike who all wanted to completely removed. Funny how that works.

I would be in favor of this bill cutting much more, but getting RINOs on board for that would be tough. Democrats don’t want any part of that either. They want more and more social programs with no end in sight.

 

[Oddball]

so again, don't act like you're an everything or nothing person like a demofk.

I'm someone who expects people to come across on promises.

This bill is a big fat ass raping with no grease, not any big victory.

 

[Meathead]

13 million people lose their healthcare in this bill as is....while those making more than $500,000 A year get their beloved tax cuts.

Well, maybe the able-bodied should get off their lazy (and corpulent) asses.

Well oddball, if they don't pass a budget, the 2017 tax cuts come off and that's an automatic 4 trillion debt in September. Tax cuts aren't free. They did it for the tax cuts and the no tax on tips and SS. That was the true purpose of the bill. It's why the republicans said they'd need to several bills and not one bill. Are you saying there wasn't any cuts at all? I don't think that's correct. The only piece I didn't like was the green incentives. But you know what, there are other needs bigger than that for middle class workers.

 

[Oddball]

I gave you the major points. Probably more than you knew before.

No, you gave me the little shiny toys....There another 1,000 pages of pure, unadulterated shit in that bill that nobody is telling you about.

 

[Marener]

That is because it isn't about employment.

It is about streamlining the government and making it more efficient.

The government has no business doling out aid to those who are not working voluntarily, and to those who refuse to increase their skills to provide for themselves.

The Feds shouldn't even provide funding to those who are unable to work. THAT is the JOB of THE STATES, not the Feds.

It’s just a bad idea. It kicks good people off a good program for no reason.

Let's get the trash off the streets of our country, get those lazy mthr fkers out and start cleaning up for their money. I do grow tired of demofks funding lazy.

The Democrats will object to making able-bodied adults without dependents get a part-time job (at least) in order to keep Medicaid. They want people on full welfare, not working.

They will also probably balk at the idea of not making taxpayers give Medicaid to illegal aliens.

Most on Medicaid already have jobs. Ask your MAGA friends.

 

[Greenbeard]

That's because there are no cuts from a zero baseline.

If you Marxist scum couldn't lie, y'all would have nothing to say.

The 15 million people losing health coverage will be relieved!

It’s a big help to the working and middle class, who will see a big tax increase averted. It’s a help to the lower-income since they won’t pay tax on tips or overtime. And it’s a help to ALL Americans by keeping the border secure and deporting illegals.
