Republican senators block extension to ACA subsidies

[HikerGuy83]

In the beginning Obamacare had an individual mandate allowing the risks to be spread.

Yes, forcing men to carry maternity insurance was brilliant.

Something else you guys gutted.

Our bad.

Why subsidize Obamacare?

So people get Healthcare.

The GOP deleted the main provision to make it cheaper.

 

[Clipper]

Fantastic, F all you corrupt money scamming Dem scum! This is a Dem SCAM temporary measure crammed through under the cover of Covid and half dead Biden regime that Dem assholes are now trying to make permanent.

You'll be pissing orange when those subsidies end, halfwit.

Obama made healthcare affordable for everyone. There's no need for the taxpayers to pay for it.
If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.

 

[Clipper]

No need, it's Obama's program he can explain it to you.

Numbnuts Trump is ranting that he wants to send people cash so they can in his words, "buy their own healthcare". Just where the hell does that idiot nodding off nitwit think people are going to go to "buy their own healthcare"?

As usual, Trump has no clue how the insurance marketplace works so he blows smoke up your MAGA asses & hope that it sticks. Which it always does with you morons.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

I see. Not for the millions uninsured. Or those that had "pre-existing" conditions.

And I'm not dissatisfied. I don't have to deal with it.

The pre-existing conditions limits were passed prior to ObamaCare was ever planned with bipartisan support.

Just where the hell does that idiot nodding off nitwit think people are going to go to "buy their own healthcare"?

Doesn't everybody already have to buy their own health care if they don't get it other ways? I don't know as I have VA. So Baby Jesus gives everybody the cash going to the insurance companies to them instead and that cash goes into your general pool of cash and helps pay for your healthcare. That's how.

The "adults" as you describe them are like people who blame the fire department for not putting out a fire. While being seen to slash the tires off the fire truck and putting sugar in the gas tank.

But for the third time. You're welcome to try to blame Obama here. I'm sure that'll work out for you.

You do not have the right to my labor. Period.

Once a population of people come to believe they have the right - and worse, the moral duty - to use the power of government to compel others by threat of force to pay for the utopian dreams of the enlightened, people like yourself it would seem, then liberty within that society is effectively dead.

You and your amoral, self-serving brethren are narcissistic, destructive fools.

How poetically non-sensical.

Being part of a society means you sometimes use the fruits of your labor to better society as a whole.

You do it routinely for things like roads, fire departments, common defense, education, law enforcement, etc.etc.

The fact that you seem to believe that you can have the benefits of a society without needing to contribute to it is simply wrong.

In most countries healthcare is simply another one of those things that society as a whole recognizes as essential to its wellbeing.

 

[forkup]

Its never cheaper with Government involved.

Every statistic on the subject says otherwise. Most peer nations have the government much more involved in healthcare. ALL are cheaper.

Its never cheaper with Government involved.

Every OECD country with more government involvement in healthcare spends less per person than the U.S. There are no exceptions.

So what exactly do you base that assertion on?

 

[forkup]

The pre-existing conditions limits were passed prior to ObamaCare was ever planned with bipartisan support.

The only limits that were passed was under HIPAA in 1996.

But until Obamacare millions of people were routinely denied coverage. So what are you talking about?

 

[forkup]

Yes, forcing men to carry maternity insurance was brilliant.


Our bad.

Yes just like woman would cover testicular cancer. Just like you carry car insurance although you might never have an accident. Or fire insurance while maybe never experiencing a fire.

That's simply how insurance works. You cover a host of risks with a whole lot of people in order to make sure that when someone experiences something that's covered under that risk they can actually afford it.

 

[scruffy]

Democrats are squealing like stuck pigs.

Is that what that is?

I thought it was music.

 

[Nostra]

So people get Healthcare.

The GOP deleted the main provision to make it cheaper.

Really? What provision was that?

 

[Nostra]

Obama made healthcare affordable for everyone. There's no need for the taxpayers to pay for it.
If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.

We are all paying $2500 less per year now, right?

Tell,us how you think insurance works.

 

[TruthSeeker112125]

Allowing people with pre-existing conditions to buy insurance is expensive. Not affordable.

What should be done with those people, in Your Belief Todd?

 

[TruthSeeker112125]

When trying to be clever always make sure you don't embarrass yourself.

Foxworthy didn't use that line........................That was Bill Engvall.

"Foxworthy didn't use that line" ........ Bullshit.

You obviously have limited access to several of the shows that were televised where on Stage, Foxworthy did indeed proclaim "If You are.... Then here's Your Sign!"

I'm Not "Embarrassed" at all,..... Nostra,

And thanks to several years experience of having interacted with Certifiable Idiots/"Key Board Warriors" that have nothing more to do than nit pick something insignificant, in the hopes of receiving praise from the forum,.... Your "Ejaculating Insults", are nothing more than passing wind.

I realize that those with an IQ lower than their Shoe Size,such as yer fine self,.... Zealously seek Attention, so they carry out acts like this,.....Instead of having a Meaningful, Truth Seeking Conversation.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Or fire insurance while maybe never experiencing a fire.

may never......

Men WILL NEVER get pregnant.

That's simply how insurance works.

No, it's not that simple.

You select what you want to cover. And if that is NOTHING, then it is NOTHING.

Every OECD country with more government involvement in healthcare spends less per person than the U.S. There are no exceptions.

Older drugs, fewer drugs, older equipment, fewer doctors, rationing and longer wait times do result in lower spending.
