"In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!" Trump says
While the government shutdown continues, President Trump on Sunday urged Senate Republicans to send the Obamacare subsidy money directly to taxpayers rather than to the insurance companies.
"I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money left over," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
"In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!" he added.
Senate Democrats are advocating for a one-year extension of the Obamacare premium subsides that they put in place during the pandemic when former President Biden was in office.
Trump and Senate Republicans have argued that Democrats should support the temporary funding bill that would reopen the government and negotiate healthcare issues separately.
Trump has said the Senate GOP should eliminate the 60-vote threshold to pass legislation in order to reopen the government.

Go self-pay. It is often less expensive.
No call for repeal. Which is interesting, since HF has spent a lot of bandwidth for many years calling for repeal.
The best idea they have in the P2025 document:
Separate the subsidized ACA exchange market from the non- subsidized insurance market.
The Affordable Care Act has made insurance more expensive and less competitive, and the ACA subsidy scheme simply masks these impacts. To make health insurance coverage more affordable for those who are without government subsidies, CMS should develop a plan to separate the non-subsidized insurance market from the subsidized market, giving the non-subsidized market regulatory relief from the costly ACA regulatory mandates.
It remains to be seen how strongly HF will pursue any changes to the ACA. So far they've been pretty quiet.
Keeping in mind that the individual mandate passed constitutional muster, and although the tax penalty was eliminated in 2017, the mandate remains.
Depending on how future political winds flow, the penalty could rear its ugly head again.
Like school vouchers-right?
“I’ve never met a person with an HSA who disliked it. Prices are so much cheaper, service is faster cause no insurance or government paperwork, and doctors are happier.(they don’t have to do excess paperwork either)”
I have no idea what you are talking about and neither do you. An HSA is from having a high deductible insurance plan. It does not mean paying cash for everything.
Also, without high coverage insurance, good luck funding anything beyond a very simple procedure using the limited funds of an HSA.
GREAT IDEA!!!!!!!!!!
STOPS THE SIDE MONEY BLED OFF TO THE DEMS.....
Exactly. 100%.
