Republicans block bill to extend expiring health insurance subsidies

I've never known anyone to die due to lack of health insurance. That's more a talking point than anything else. And being a billionaire didn't save Steve Jobs.
But I've known several people who have been pushed to bankruptcy due to lack of health insurance. And while Steve Jobs still died, his money allowed him access to whatever treatment he wanted to try. Something not available to the masses in this country. Why do you think people come from other countries to take advantage of our medical system? It's not like they present their health cards from their country. :) It's because..cash..goes to the front of the line.
 
Oh trump came up with that, did he? Dumbass of course he didnt. In fact, he stated, "I like that idea"
Trump has no plan. You were conned, you know it, and you still defend him. The cult runs deep.
the President is not Congress and cant initiate any legislation. It was the republican plan supported by Trump.

So what? Rich people get better shit. Are you opposing that fact in general, or just for health care? If it's just for health care, what makes health care special?

You all act like doctors are priests dispensing mana from heaven - and should be above mundane concerns like money. Why?

Sorry. You sound like a Republican. I got mine. **** everyone else. :)
Just because you have money doesn't mean you should get shoved to the front of the line.
Other countries don't have this issue. They don't sit around and whine, piss, and moan about making sure that
people don't go broke from having to deal with lack of insurance over medical expenses.
 
It was tried and failed by one vote....McCain's.
Yeah. It won't get done on a party line vote. Republicans will have to put on their big boy pants and make their case to the people, they'll have to lead and persuade. They'll have to actually do their jobs.

:itsok:

Lol .. right. You should hear what they have to say on the matter.

Anyway, I asked you a question and you're dodging. Wanna try again?
 
For clarity, on you on Medicare? I may have misunderstood.
you misunderstand because you want to play word games so you can use personal attacks instead of rationally debating the topic,,

maybe try addressing details I said for once??

Obama didn't come up with Obamacare either. That would be congress--one party to boot. Health care/insurance is not the gov'ts business and it certainly is BELOW THE PAYGRADE OF THE POTUS.

You didn't answer the question. Are you on Medicare?

I am sorry you are to ******* lazy to check the news,

Looks like republicans voted against it as well. Evidently a $1,500 HSA wasn't going to cut it.
The legislation, which needed 60 votes to advance, failed by a vote of 51 to 48.

He liked the idea. It wasnt his. Good grief. My post was about TRUMPS plan.
Do you understand now?

The real problem is how do we make medical care cheaper? The ACA failed in that quest.

The never ever Trump drum beat. :eusa_whistle:
You've been waiting 2-3 weeks forever.
Are you satisfied with this failed trump promise to replace what you have called the FAILED ACA?

And trump has said, since 2015, the he will replace ObamaCare on day one.
Since then, all we have heard is ......
2-3 weeks, then eventually the quote of "I have Concepts of a Plan."

How can you support this CLOWN?
