They did last year when they sent the bill ending subsidies and Medicaid expansion to Obama. What's different now, except for the fact that this time it might get signed?
Exactly, it might get signed. So, they won’t vote for it. They were never going to do it. I don’t hear one republican saying that they should drop people from coverage. Not one, not even Rand Paul.
The reality is that drug prices have to come down for Medicare and Medicaid. If we have to pay for these people, nobody should be making money off of it. They should be making money off of those who have money. There is the cost side and the care side. We should go after the cost side.
And lets be really honest, we pay drug companies to produce drugs that treat but do not cure people. We do not incent companies to produce cures. And we pay researchers so much money that after one hit. They have no more incentive. They are worth hundreds of millions. So our best and brightest are off buying islands paid for by Medicaid and Medicare.
