Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia advocated for the abolition of property taxes and described health insurance as a big "scam."
"We need to completely abolish property taxes. It forces us to pay ‘rent’ to the government on property that we own, but if we don’t pay property taxes, the property that we own gets taken away from us. That should never happen in a free country," Greene declared in a post on X.
"Secondly, health insurance is a giant scam that has become completely unaffordable. And it doesn’t make any sense and I don’t know anyone, and I mean anyone, that supports the current healthcare system in the United States," she continued.

It used to be illegal to tax a man’s labor and his property.
Medicals costs keep going up, and until that’s addressed, it won’t be possible to fix insurance.
Good points.
It's the same problem. You create a government program to enable costs to rise and voila they do. If free market discipline were force on either industry costs would be controlled and the administrative and management overhead burden would be dramatically reduced.
As abortion is not health care, medical insurance is not medicine. Insurance as implemented is totally corrupted.
The equivalent “medical insurance” for automobiles would be making a claim each time I bought gas.
Last I knew NYS was still slow-walkimg compliance with the SCOTUS’s home equity theft decision.
Wonder how many other states are refusing to comply...
Property taxes mean people will never actually own their homes.
They will be renting them from their government.
But I was told Barry made health insurance affordable....
... but, but I though technology (and AI) would make everything more affordable.
Agree, "Insurance" is just a pool of money that pays the expenses for the unfortunate that utilize expensive health care treatments. That is the easy part, it's simple math. The treatments are going up and those being treated are going up i.e. how many knee replacements or various transplants are happening in 2025 vs, 1970. Testing is more prevalent as is pharmaceutical dispensing. People are consuming more of an ever increasing costly product.
Fixing health insurance or addressing healthcare costs has so many entrenched parties making it almost impossible to fix.
If you didn’t have health insurance, you have very few choices in paying for healthcare, you could self-insure but only the wealthy could afford healthcare, or you could have a single-payer government run healthcare system. I’m not sure what other alternatives exist.
My suggestion which will never happen would be to curtail medical liability laws, doctors, hospitals and other healthcare providers pay a fortune for medical malpractice insurance and conduct needless test and procedures to cover themselves from malpractice lawsuits.
You have no idea what the cost of healthcare is when you need everything from a primary care provider or major surgery.
I agree with the property tax portion - needs to be eliminated along with school taxes.
I like her.
What are the “acceptable” forms of taxation?
Won’t happen.
Evidence: Big pharma remains wholly untouched and continues to influence not only the bureaucratic state, but the Hill and POTUS.
If that was false, EUAs would have been rescinded MONTHS ago, there would be no more mandates and victims would have recourse against the government’s - and pharma’s - crimes (SOLELY in reference to the plandemic). The IDIC (Illness/Disease Industrial Complex, aka MIC) is the foundation of the problem.
Translated (in THEIR words):
“Suck it up.”
She’s not wrong.
Lord .
Hello .
Does that useful idiot Mtg realize her screaming about health care costs are
what the Dems intended and the reason they rammed thru Obamacare .
Muzzie Barry and Dem thugs intentionally wiped out all the cheap insurance options.
Unfortunately, health insurance is a giant scam that pays a large part of the Republican Party’s campaign bills.
Yeah by granting the health care industry a monopoly and requiring that you subscribe or pay a Robert’s tax penalty for noncompliance they can charge monopolistic pricing and charge even more if you actually need to use the insurance.
ObamaCare was nothing but a big BJ for the insurance companies. That’s why they didn’t have to read what was in it.
