Yep!
I’d LOVE to hear at least ONE conservative on tv say “Government has NO business meddling with the healthcare business!!!” NOT their job! NOT their place!
Funny how, we never knew there was a “crisis in healthcare til Obama was elected... except for a bit in 93 when HILLARY wanted to take it over.
They don’t want to repeal Obamacare.
That would weaken Fedzilla.
The only immigration reform we need is enforcement, which we are finally getting.
Music to the GOP ears. They want to be voted into minority party status.
There’s no party. It’s a funeral.
Unfortunately you are right... This is why they insist on having their hands in the mix. But why anyone would support this criminal precedence I don’t know. They keep getting enough support from the people that they can keep going in the wrong direction. And Trump just wants to do Something...anything to try and keep his promise. It is up to him to set some guidelines and dialog in working towards a free market which WILL work, It always does.
Republicans are dead. The only thing left to kill is the stock market...and when that starts to implode the fit will hit the shan....and so be it...at least everyone will be finally equal...ha! Bring it on stupid party!
There’s a new health care model out there and it’s being successful in six hundred locations. Basically, a clinic (group of various docs with various specialties in a building), or maybe it’s more like a small hospital, offers thousands of patients with health issues in the “normal” range health care at $50.00 per month.
And, it’s working. So, the day may come after this model is refined and perfected over the years, that 535 legislators opinions on Health Care are MOOT
There are going to be winners and losers with any plan. With Obamacare the winners were those with pre-existing conditions and lower income people who became eligible for Medicaid. The losers were those who bought health-care insurance on their own and saw their premiums sky-rocket, people who saw their hours cut be companies not wanting to meet the minimum hour requirement for providing insurance. Under Trumpcare the winners will be those who can buy lower cost premiums that meet their needs and people whose employers no longer need to provide insurance and therefore don't need to cut hours. The losers will be those with pre-existing conditions and those who will be dropped from Medicaid when that gets cut. People are going to get hurt one way or the other, so if Limbaugh's goal is to not hurt anyone then he's going to be disappointed no matter what happens.
Ha! We'd be lucky if it was just do nothing
... as is, they're certain to backstab us.
(Indeed, the failure to repeal is proof of their intent.)
David, I love you, brother, but don’t do an editorial unless you want to confront the real reason they are not doing anything for WE THE PEOPLE...it is because they are paid off by pharma, and COC and anyone keeping them in power...in fact, they get richer if they are in the MINORITY!!!
You're right - all the foofarah about comprehensive immigration was a smokescreen for bringing in more illegals and make the ones here legal. Immigration reform was a coalition of the CHEAP LABOR EXPRESS AND VOTER hungry democrats...
InsuranceCare is the same - my guess is most of the bill was written by the self-interested BIG players - Insurance companies, Doctor's groups and big Pharma...
If Congress passes ONE PART OF HEALTHCARE AT A TIME we (the people) can stop the process of 'feeding special interest' by cash starved members of Congress. Congressmen should be working for the people - NOT for the special interest. Voting on ONE part of HealtCare at time puts the kibosh on this type of corruption.
Obama sold the non-productive side of America the idea that they could have EVERY conceivable kind of health care—despite their life styles——at the largess of the productive part of America. He sold this bag of manure with a ‘LOSS LEADER’ ad on what premiums would cost and a handful of other lies:
Your costs will go down $2500 a year
Your kids are covered by you until they are 26-free
You can keep your own doctor
You can keep your own hospital
Premiums won’t rise
Deductibles won’t rise
Everything will be hunky-dory
NOT SO-—Some families are expected to pay more for this ‘health care insurance’ & DEDUCTIBLES than they earn in gross pay in a year.
NOW that Obamacare is spiraling out of control at a Titanic rate, Obama is out of office & the Congress is there to catch hell for the outcome.
The outcome belongs ENTIRELY to the DEMOCRATS. THEY voted for Obamacare. NOT ONE SINGLE REPUBLICAN voted for
Obamacare. Then Kathleen Sebelius had control to add whatever the heck she wanted without ANY oversight or sign off by Congress. And she went nuts with additions like a drunken sailor on shore leave with someone else’s credit card.
John Roberts didn’t help by calling it a legal law because it was a TAX. Gee—I usually get to DEDUCT taxes from my income taxes. Don’t see that space on my 1040. Must be a misprint.....
There are many dirty hands here, but David Limbaugh is correct.
GOP—GET OFF YOUR BUTTS and do something that is actually responsible for once.
My chiropractor will no longer accept any Medicare paying patients-—only those who pay cash. WHY?? Because her Accts receivable has gone from a 60 day range to a range over 180 days with slow payments from the Feds & sending back her requests because of ‘coding problems’. Another 180 days...... How can the human body have over 14,000 different codes that apply to fixing us? NUTS-—COMPLETELY NUTS. Neither she or other small business’ in the health care scene can afford to carry the receivables for that long a time-—and she had to add another office woman JUST TO DO THE CODING—a 50% increase in office staff.
When everybody thinks they can get something for free & they try to put that into place, there has to be pushback.
Here is IS: PUSHBACK
Call it what it is.....the free ride is over.
I don’t buy the polls. Still believe the majority of voters feel the pain of Obamacare.””
Thru most of 2016, I was getting polled 305 times a week.
Since NOv 2016-——crickets...Not one call.
Those polls are being targeted to the people who will give them the answers they want or they are possibly not even making the calls & are just making up the numbers like a game of Scrabble.
That arrogant pos lied plane and simple
Why is every female required to carry maternity coverage? Many of us are way beyond needing such coverage!!!
A person should be able to pick their coverage ala-carte and only pay for what they need.
It would have been an insult to me to have been on my father’s insurance until I turned 26-—a total insult. I was on my own.
Yes!
In fact, the bill does not need to be overly long (no bill does, actually.) Just enough to get rid of the obama "care" [sic] fraud, and establish a workable framework. There is absolutely nothing wrong with coloring-in and fine-tuning the leg, using positive and negative feedback, as implementation begins to move.
