Why didn’t the founders put healthcare into the bill of rights?
Why? Because the Rs want to be in charge of spending the big pile of $$$.
The RINOs keep it going, after getting elected on promises to repeal it. That’s the truth, not this pile of Washington Compost vomitus.
For the same reason they didn’t put a permanent income tax into any part of the Constitution, I would say.
Because they’re controlled opposition.
It is not a right ... It is slavery for healthcare providers ...
Healthcare is simply too large a percentage of the economy to let half the country have it for free or nearly so.
“Medicare Premium Bill....Current Premium Due...Total Amount Due $555.00 by 10/25/2025”
That’s from a document that came on the 6th.
That’s $185/month.
**************
I’m nearly 67.
Why should I get something for free (or nearly free) at age 64 that I have to pay $185/month for at age 66?
The solution requires understanding what Obama did to get it passed in the first place. He obscured the cost of the subsidy that people buying coverage on the individual market are paying as part of their gold/silver/bronze coverage. All you need to do is add transparency to the program so that each individual knows the cost of their coverage and the portion of their total premium that is buying down the price for others. That will kill enough political support for the current version of Obamacare that it will be possible to reverse it.
Obama’s accomplishment in getting it passed was the obfuscation of the cross-subsidization of health insurance costs that individuals are paying. Make that transparent, open, and obvious, and it will fall of its own weight.
“Why Republicans’ attempts to kill Obamacare keep backfiring”

I have proposed these premium minimums, whichever is the higher:
1. 1/65th of the Medicare Part B premium amount per insured year of age as of the start of coverage
2. a percentage of the premium amount equal to the household income percentage of FPL - 60% divided by 3
For a 5-year-old, 7-year-old, 32-year-old and 34-year-old, the ages would sum to 88 and the monthly absolute minimum premium amount would be a (88/65)*$185 or $250.46.
For a 5-year-old kid and a 27-year-old mom the ages would sum to 32 and the monthly absolute minimum premium amount would be (32/65)*$185 or $91.07.
To make all that palatable to the Democrats, I would lower the original PPACA subsidy threshold from 100% of FPL to 80% of FPL.
It's never free. It's taxpayer funded.
If Republicans do nothing, Pelosi’s Obamacare returns as it was.
You Democrats voted for the people that made Obamacare law, I didn’t.
Senator Schumer voted to make Obamacare law.
Healthcare like social security is something that’s very easy to demagogue people on. They panic and the professional politician panics.
McCAIN!!!
Once something is free or almost, people aren’t going to shrug and pay for it.
Perfectly simple. Healthcare is about 1/6 of the economy and obamacare allows our Betters to get graft out of that money.
IT IS NOT AFFORDABLE
THE “CARE” IS ALSO GONE
