Republican senators block extension to ACA subsidies

[otto105]

Horseshit. Let's say your precious "single payer" was already in place. What do you think Trump would be doing to it now? No coverage for abortion, obviously. No coverage for trannies, or anyone who's ever made fun of Trump. He'd be slashing budgets, firing staff, cutting off funding for "liberal" cities. And who knows what else. He's very creative when it comes to ******* shit up. Are you really pretending this won't happen?

OLD WHITE PHAX NEWS FUCKUP

Just stop the Bagina dairies.

I do not need your old white guy bitching and crying for the past.

Today Republicans blocked the extension of subsidies to help people pay for health care premiums.

TRANSLATION: "this is the part where I claim both that I voted for this and did not vote for this"

The party with majorities in every branch of government continues to fight against affordability:

TRANSLATION: "We will seize your tax dollars one way or another"

There’s no trust fund you stupid slut.

I assume you work for wages. Check your pay stub. Do you see that deduction for FICA---yup, that's medicare, moron.

That money is gone basically as soon as it is sent to the government.

“None of your business” isn’t debating.

Without some form of insurance, people can’t afford to get medical care in the event of serious illnesses.

Insurance is not guaranteed in the constitution. Neither is medical care.

Democrat overspending for people that don't contribute is irrelevant. The insurance is paid for with FICA funds. You can bbbbut, bbbbut, bbbbut all day long, it doesn't change the fact that recipients pay for medicare.

So, the general welfare is what?

You asked a personal question that has nothing to do with the topic. That's always going to be my answer. Plus, your question presumes the premise: that there's one "answer" that should be forced on everyone. That's the very thing I'm rejecting. Leave people be and let them manage their health care however they like. We're not herd animals. We can figure it out.

Without some form of insurance, people can’t afford to get medical care in the event of serious illnesses.

If you believe that, buy insurance. But don't force me to buy the insurance that you think is best. Just mind your own business.

Oh my god concerned, is the national debt going up or down now, I’m gonna need an answer.

It reads as a question liberals simply won't consider. They "avert their eyes" and pretend they never saw it.

 

[BS Filter]

Hahahahaha

Ooooookay

It's difficult to acknowledge all the good things President Trump has accomplished, huh.

Dude, that is not what your post implied.

No facts, no backing ideology, just a screaming little boy who happens to be white and scared.

Nuttin. Sad.

Don't think about it! It's a trick!

 

[Frankeneinstein]

So what’s the Repubucan alternative in terms of monthly premiums and deductibles?

My guess would be the ol "pay your fair share" non-sense

Republicans never say.

so? what's unusual about that? I once asked a conservative who claimed he/she/they voted for trump twice, which election he/she/they did not vote for him in and he/she/they clammed up tighter than a white liberal in ethics class...if that's a secret then what would not be?

I voted for him twice and I don't have a problem telling you that I didn't vote for him in 2016. I voted for a fringe candidate. Meh.

The government will spend far more on Medicare recipients than it collects in taxes. Your 1.45% tax doesn’t add up to much. Meanwhile, old people cost a lot of money to take care of.

Medicare Enrollees on Average Receive Far More in Benefits Than They Pay in Premiums and Payroll Taxes

This week’s Paragon Pic shows how lifetime benefits (net of premiums) have far exceeded Medicare taxes for average two-earners.
