Revised, approved and on its way to being signed into law. Goodbye, Obamacare (or whatever the damned thing was called)...
Just where DO you get your memes? LeftWingDumbAss.com? Anyway, get ready to say good riddance to Obamacare...
Maybe that's why the stupid idiot is wrong so often. He gets his news and information from social media, lol
This is a monumental victory for President Trump and the Republicans. Let's hope this breezes swiftly through the Senate so we can finally be rid of the failure known as Obamacare.
Are you fucking idiots oblivious to the way legislation works? Why would any Senate Democrat ever vote for this steaming pile of crap? Then where is your supposed victory?
Here is what you are cheering for idiot. I wish any and all of these medical conditions on all Republicans.
Republicans actually believe that if you can't afford to pay for health care because you have some expensive disease like cancer or a birth defect or you are disabled, you simply don't deserve health care. They don't deny that this is what they believe. I just hope they get the chance to experience some dramatic health crisis in their own lives and someone says to them that they don't deserve to have health care because they are not rich enough. It would be really cool if it was like one of the kids or grand kids. Because that is what they believe. If it sounds cold for me to say this, it shouldn't. It is what they believe. I think they just need to live their own beliefs.
Dem Senator Breaks with Party, Supports Repealing and Replacing ObamaCare May 4, 2017 Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) said Thursday that he is open to repealing and replacing ObamaCare even as his party's leadership demands that Republicans drop their effort to nix President Obama's signature healthcare law. "It needs to be improved. It hasn't been improved. We can either work to improve that or repeal it and replace with something better. I'm open to either one," Tester told Fox News. Tester, who is up for reelection in 2018 in a state won by President Trump, added that he doesn't think lawmakers did enough to try to fix the Affordable Care Act since it was passed in 2010. http://nation.foxnews.com/2017/05/0...ty-supports-repealing-and-replacing-obamacare
Column All the horrific details of the GOP's new Obamacare repeal bill: A handy guide 1. The AHCA guts protections for those with pre-existing conditions. 2. Its high-risk pools are a scam that won’t protect sick Americans. 3. Even people with employer plans could lose coverage. 4. The bill kills Medicaid expansion and cuts traditional Medicaid by a massive $800 billion. 5. It defunds Planned Parenthood and threatens abortion protections in many states. 6. More than 24 million Americans could lose their coverage. 7. It’s really a poorly disguised tax cut for the rich.
Don't feel bad for not reading this... They couldn't find any republicans that actually read the bill they just passed. The GOP Plan For Pre-existing Conditions Has Been Tried Before. It Didn’t Work. High-risk pools have a sorry history. By Zach Carter, Arthur Delaney MARK WILSON VIA GETTY IMAGES U.S. President Donald Trump congratulates House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) after Republicans passed legislation aimed at repealing and replacing ObamaCare. The Republican Obamacare replacement was resurrected from political death this week by a plan to deal with pre-existing conditions through something called a “high-risk pool.” Some people have unusually high health care costs. These people are colloquially known as “sick” people. In medical jargon, they’re called people with “pre-existing conditions.” Obamacare tried to help these people cope with their costs by spreading them out among as many people as possible. Obamacare forced everyone to buy health insurance and banned insurance companies from discriminating against people with pre-existing conditions. This meant higher premiums for some healthy people, and new access to insurance for millions of others. The GOP replacement takes the opposite approach to dealing with this problem. It allows states to move people with pre-existing conditions out of the private insurance system and into high-risk pools, which gives insurance companies room to reduce premiums. “Freed from the current system’s coercive mandates, insurers would finally be able to bring down costs for all patients, including those with pre-existing conditions,” health secretary Tom Price maintained in a Wednesday CNBC column. The problem, of course, is that high-risk pools are very expensive ― they’re full of sick people with high health care costs. The only way for the GOP bill to bring down costs for all patients is to funnel tons of taxpayer cash into the high-risk pools. Otherwise, it’s just a gambit to sack sick people with massive bills ― exactly the sort of thing insurance is supposed to prevent. And the GOP bill appears to have extremely scarce funding for high-risk pools. At the beginning of the week, the GOP bill provided up to $130 billion that states could theoretically use to set up high-risk pools. The Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank, calculated that would still be $200 billion short. To placate moderate Republicans, party leaders added another $8 billion that could only be used for the pools. So maybe the Senate will fix the bill and pour hundreds of billions of dollars into high-risk pools, enough to make up for the $673 billion in premium subsidies that the bill cuts. What’s far more likely to happen is what has happened with high-risk pools in the past ― a big underfunded mess. Before Obamacare, 35 states ran high-risk pools for people who couldn’t get private insurance. These programs covered about 200,000 people, though they weren’t backed by billions in federal funding. Instead, states levied assessments on insurance companies and hospitals, according to the Congressional Research Service. The state pools tended to have high premiums, high deductibles and typically excluded coverage for health problems related to a potential enrollee’s pre-existing condition for six months. Insurance companies lose money by participating in the pools, with losses totaling $1.2 billion in 2011, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. During the 14-month debate over the Affordable Care Act, Republicans pitched expanded pools as an alternative. Democrats incorporated the idea in their legislation, setting up a $5 billion high-risk pool that opened almost immediately after the bill became law. They billed the provision as a stopgap for people with pre-existing conditions who couldn’t get health insurance until Obamacare’s ban on discrimination against the sick took effect in 2014. Administration officials expected the Obamacare pool, known as the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan, to cover up to 375,000 people out of as many as 25 million Americans who were uninsured due to pre-existing conditions. It only reached 100,000 enrollees, and their medical claims were so extensive that the Obama administration closed enrollment early in 2013. The program’s medical losses totaled $2 billion in its final year.
Clueless, your meme has a cpl mistakes. Clinton wasnt elected as sex offender. That came after his election, but, he was re-elected so only 1 Pinocchio. 2nd, victims can get health care. 4 Pinocchios. Hopefully soon, gun laws change and we include that on the no buy list. And yes, they can get health care. 4 Pinocchios
