That’s not at all what Trump proposed.
All he said was that he’d have the government continue to pay for healthcare for the poor (Medicaid).
He has previously repeatedly said that he’d repeal Obamacare and have free market solutions, including competition across state lines, for the rest of us.
The outright lies being pushed here are disgusting.
He’s not promising free health care.
He’d get more votes promising free prescription drugs, too.
And he did say he wants to preserve private health care for those want to pay for it.
It’s just the latest “gotcha” attack.
The usual pack will jump around for 2 days and then breathlessly wonder why they managed to sway no one.
In his book “The America We Deserve” Trump touts single payer
Thanks for saving me the time to write that. You are 100% correct.
So he said we could pay for ours and the government pays for the poor. So where does this differ from Obamacare? Sounds like we end up paying for ours and theirs.
I so agree with you....
He is talking about a health care plan for every LEGAL citizen of America...
If your an ‘ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT’ you get nothing, and you shouldn’t...your not a citizen, and your not legal...
I loved his tax plan also....
Correct as far as I know. There are two conditions I'd like to see placed on that:
A) They have to be truly poor, and must pay some amount of co-pay when treated.
B) It should be a basic plan, and an income based "sliding scale" used to determine their premium contribution, their payment ranging from 0 to 90% of full premium.
With affordable group plans coming back, as people gain employment they would likely drop the subsidized plan for a better one from their employer.
All carriers would be required to offer the sub/premium base plan. The government would otherwise not administer any coverage.
Medicaid would cease to exist.
