Obamacare Lite

I understand that an expectation of logical dialogue on a Las Vegas message board is not realistic in a platform dominated by far far far right fall-of -the-cliff, bat shit crazy nut cases like LVFritz and DrMilled and others, so why does this dialogue perpetuate?

I know this is a crazy thought to those on the left, but how about able bodied people pay their own way. COMMENTS PLEASE WHY ABLE BODIED PEOPLE SHOULDN'T PAY THEIR OWN WAY.

Apologies for omitting Boilerman from the LVFritz and DrMilled off-the-rails bat-shit-crazy train. Jump on board. There is plenty of room. The first drink is LVFritz!

Amberly - you should try thinking rationally ( I know that would be a difficult task for you) before bashing others who may not agree with whatever topics that you comment about. Time for you to grow up and face reality. You have a lot to learn...

On cue! Now we need to hear from LVFritz for stereo effect.

most people are not a fan of Obamacare. most people will not be a fan of Trumpcare. one thing is for sure, it IS very complicated.

It's not that complicated . This new plan takes tax credits from the poor and gives them to the rich. A 50 year old poor person sees his tax credits cut in half, a middle income 50 year old guy sees his bill stay the same, a 50 year old person making $500,000 gets new tax credits and a 50 year old billionaire gets a couple hundred thousand dollars in tax credits. It actually encourages those without insurance not to apply for it until its needed, and does away with a state being able to establish minimum standards for insurance sold within it.
There is no way this can be done without blowing up the deficit.
Hopefully, its DOA.

Wait a minute ! ! !

Is it possible that poor old DonDiego may actually benefit under "TrumpCare" ? ? ? Some sorta tax credit ? (DonDiego had thought he was only voting against The Hillary, . . . but, perhaps, he should've been voting for President Trump all along.)

Cancer treatments can run 50k or more. A heart attack costs about $38,000 for the first 90 days of treatment. A knee replacement averages $30k, and a hip replacement about $40K.

The average US salary is $53,657

Sure. Everyone should just pay their own way.

Or buy insurance, . . . just in case, . . . to share the "financial risk", . . . like in the Good Old days.
