You assume any large portion of the 48% of American electorate have the brain power and sensitivity to reality to recognize when a nail studded baseball bat is shoved up to the handle into their ass.

Here's an idea: you know these town hall events where voters have been giving their elected representatives a tough time? Perhaps the next question people should ask, is 'Senator Bloatworth, could you please describe the health care plan you have, and explain why my family and I can't get the same level of coverage at the same price?'

Only now some of these republican legislators want restraining orders against their electorate to keep them from pestering them for more face time. You know - vote for me and then sod off.

They sat on their asses for eight years, and now that they find themselves able to change it, they're just now starting to figure out how much they're going to be forced to keep, and how much they can get away with just stripping. Actually improving the system is out the window altogether.

Hey, I'm just glad they're finally addressing the real healthcare issue in this country, lottery winners getting Medicaid.
Quote:If that seems absurd, just know that the word lottery was mentioned 11 times in the GOP health care plan. The important issue of Medicaid got equal attention with 11 mentions. A full six pages of the 60-plus page bill were devoted to lottery winnings. Lottery winnings! Essentially, the GOP bill's big idea on this—to which it devoted nearly 10 percent of its attention—is figuring out ways to make sure lottery-winners on Medicaid can't cheat the system. Seriously. The bill goes on and on and on to stipulate under which circumstances the state can declare you no longer in need of—nor entitled to—Medicaid. http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2...icaid.html

Oh, yes. And here's the reason. The GOP was right to try to prevent the ACA going into effect because they did understand that it is actually quite hard to take candy from a baby. People who never had health insurance saw it as an abstraction but once they had it - and they have had it for 7 years - they liked it. The GOP did understand that. Taking shit away is not popular. Then, you have fuckheads like this: http://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/gop-rep-...-coverage/ Quote:GOP rep. calls emergency room health care ‘coverage’: ‘If you show up at a hospital, you get coverage’ How stupid do you have to be to know that being treated at an emergency room is not insurance coverage? Quote:The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA), passed in 1986, requires hospital emergency rooms to provide assistance to everyone for emergency medical treatment. However, emergency room treatment is considered to be the most costly type of care, and it does not include non-emergent needs like routine physicals or cancer treatments. Additionally, the law provides no mechanism for funding, leaving patients with an enormous bills which hospital are many times unable to collect. The depth of ignorance that these republicunt assholes show on this issue is truly staggering. We seem to have a whole party of shitheads who don't grasp how complicated things are. |
