  • Republican Health Care Bill Lie Exposed.

    Dean Heller, Republican Senator of Nevada, along with the Republican Governor, expose the truth about the secret Insurance and Pharmaceutical Industry backed health Care Bill. It will throw millions of people off of healthcare, and does nothing to lower premiums. It is strictly a 800 billion dollat tax break for the wealthy. Senator Heller, most likely for political reasons, will not support it.

    So you're upset that the wrong people are getting rich?
    In my book one millionaire is as good as another.
    Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

      Not true, for as long as I'm not one of them.

        Yes. Trump is taking care of his own, and as expected, breaking campaign promises by trading health care for the poor for tax cuts for the rich

        “The Congressional Budget Office said on Monday that next year 14 million fewer Americans will have insurance if the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, is repealed and replaced on the terms the president is seeking. That tally would rise to 21 million in 2020 and 24 million in 2026. By then, the total number of uninsured Americans would reach 52 million.

        And for what? To give a gigantic tax cut to wealthy Americans.”

          Not only that but only 13 male republicans wrote the bill, behind closed doors, and the insurance companies are big contributers to all of them. So much for draining the swamp.

              I wasn't upset about this until I learned it was 13 male republicans that wrote the bill.
              There is something evil about the number 13.

                I'm not happy with how establishment Republicans have handled this, but I think it's hilarious that liberals are mad about the Republicans following the trail blazed by Obama and the Democrats which the low-info crowd was perfectly content with.

                        That is pretty much how legislation is drawn up. They meet and discuss what they seek to propose and when they're done they offer it up for public inspection and debate.

                          Obamacare was a bad compromise, Trumpcare is Obamacare made worse. Hopefully once Trump and the Republicans have run Trumpcare into the ground then single-payer progressively taxed healthcare will become the norm.

                            Obamacare wasn't even a compromise. It was rammed down our throats exclusively by Democrats.

                              I have to assume you're being sarcastic.
