I’m shopping for non obamacommiecare plans...
Excellent first step!
Well, I guess we now know who really benefits from obamacare...
“The Association for Community Affiliated Plans, an insurer group that sued the administration, plans to appeal.”
this is disgusting....not the decision, but the idea that a judge has that kind of power.
We don’t have a judiciary for this—we had an ELECTION.
I am sick of judicial tyranny.
The Association for Community Affiliated Plans (ACAP) is a national trade association representing 60 Medicaid-focused health plans in 29 states. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., ACAP advocates on behalf of its community-affiliated member health plans operating throughout the United States.
Look into medical indemnity plans.
All Dem candidates raise their hands to promise that they’ll nuke these less expensive health insurance plans ...
Can you imagine how great the rulings are going to be in trump’s third term?
As these multiple court cases get out of the district courts and into the appeals court and, when necessary, the USSC, PDJT wins, almost every time.
The D.C. Appeals court just ruled that the House Dems can’t enforce the discovery order in their emolument case until the district court resolves the separation of powers argument presented by PDJT. This is the last of the emolument cases and the three Obama judges won’t let it go forward until PDJT has the opportunity to appeal any order for discovery.
PDJT’s alternative to OBAMACARE was just ruled to be lawful. Planned Parenthood lost their case on the sixty million dollar funding. ETC., ETC.
His legal staff is following all the laws and advancing his agenda by enforcing current laws or proposing and implementing rules changes.
WIN. WIN. WIN. Love it

So how is this an an over-reach by the judge when he’s actually using judicial restraint?
This will allow people to pay-as-you-go. Buy a catastrophic plan for the big stuff like cancer, heart attacks, accidents, strokes, etc.
Doctors will love it because they can deal directly with the patient on a cash basis, and layoff 2/3 of their office staff. Next step is to allow doctors to stock prescriptions in their offices for common items and cut out the middlemen and retailers in the drug business.
The health insurance companies would lose most of their profits and force huge layoffs of people who really aren’t needed. These changes would truly be free market advances.
