Ok, here's what needs to be understood about this "double edged sword."
Through the ACA, the Federal Government is subsiding the healthcare industry as a whole. Without this subsidizing there are very few Americans who are able to afford healthcare premiums, the few that are left who can afford their premiums won't be enough to keep the industry going, jobs are lost, poorer quality of healthcare is provided, the industry shrinks by loosing jobs and revenue and ultimately causing the US economy to shrink and unemployment to rise.
Now if these simpletons in the White House actually understood how our economy works, they wouldn't be trying so hard to destroy America.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow im more concerned about the 243 ppl that showed up at my church last night for supper because they are trying to make ghe food they got at home stretch further.
@Mountainlady16 That is easy. 0. The government doesn't decide anything about treatment and never have.

But that is what American insurance companies do hourly. Sentence people to death because it is profitable.

We don't leave things untreated because we don't need to take out a loan to go to the doctor.

And you clearly will do anything to blindly support your cult leader Trump.
@Mountainlady16 Fun fact. Red states like Texas have stopped counting the number of women who die in childbirth because the optics look bad.

The US is the only country that seems determined to increase child birth mortality rates and bankrupt new parents if they both survive with a $30 000 bill.

It does line up with Conservative ideology though. Make it so only wealthy (and almost exclusively white people) can even have children and punish those who do that aren't wealthy.

economic eugenics is a right wing idea. Actually all eugenics were conservative ideas.

Well if they use the nuclear option the long term care bill should reduce dramatically.

@JimboSaturn subsidies is what this entire fight is about its the portion of the insurance the government pays
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Mountainlady16 So it's collected by taxes? WEll like I said, I'm happy to pay taxes so people with less have health care.
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F

No one makes better deals than Trump.


Nuclear option is appropriate. The GOP seems determined to make sure anyone who is not a millionaire or above dies for no reason because they can't afford healthcare.

When the Dems get control.back they can then pass all sorts of climate rules, without the filibuster.

@JimboSaturn but the faster u are treated for alopecia the better the disease can quickly progress
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@Mountainlady16 That is my point. Without universal health care, you won't even go to the doctor until your really need to in an effort to avoid cost.
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@JimboSaturn thats not totally true i take my kids to the dr for checkups once a year and otherwise when needed. If one them showed signs of alopecia i be on the phone quickly with their pediatrician who ive known all my life so knows my history of alopecia and be taking them prob within a few days they be going to the same dermatologist that treated me
