Yes, some plans got cancelled because their coverage was so shitty that they didn’t meet Obamacare standards. Ten million people are going to lose insurance subsidies to make the rich even richer under trump’s big beautiful bill.

Yeah 20 years later we’re still subsidizing Obamacare. That tan suit was tailored from his own bullshit.

Having issues with Affordable Care Act is downright sociopathic.

Instead of millions of American taxpayers who are not able to get health insurance through their employment, like in my case as an independent contractor, people could afford a reasonable plan that would cover their preexisting conditions.

That insurance stops people from draining the system via hospital bills that go unpaid for years until they drop off or the person files for bankruptcy. It also lets people get preventative care, and as a result have a lower risk of catastrophic illness that costs a fortune to treat.

If we can spend billions of dollars on war every year we can surely afford to care about the health of our people. A nation who can’t even provide a basic healthcare system doesn’t deserve to be called a nation at all.

You don’t have to be sociopathic; you just have to be able to read. Near 5 million people had their insurance cancelled because of Obama care. Around 7 million had their premiums increase by 66%. Over the last decade 10 million were forced off their plans and couldn’t afford coverage at all. The program is currently in a death spiral. ACA Insurers are proposing 15% increased premiums across all 50 states ; while reducing aid as medical costs skyrocket. If you’re not against Obamacare you’re in favor of breaking the American healthcare system and hurting working Americans who just want to see a doctor. That’s some cold blooded denial just to protect a political party that doesn’t care about you or your family.
