... Bob McMichael, 63, and his wife, Leslie, 62, already know they won't. Both are retired and make about $42,000 a year. They currently pay $51 a month for their ACA plan. Late last month, they got a notice that their monthly premium would increase to $2,232 next year without the subsidies. ...

Yet Pres Trump wants to preserve the tax cuts to billionaires.

Dummkopf Trumpf receives world class medical treatment at WRAMC and his attending physician is a USN Captain and osteopathist specializing in emergency and tactical medicine. Members of Congress have a USN Rear Admiral treating them at a modern, well-furnished clinic inside Capitol Hill.

Why does the wealthiest Country on the planet seem to be unable to provide affordable healthcare for its citizens?

Has "healthcare for a profit," a.k.a. Capitalism, failed the Country in this critical area?

It's the "healthcare industry."
And that's why it has and will continue to hurt and kill people.
Lots of money to be made.
Casualties are just a cost of doing business.
It's about the bottom line and the squeeze.
And it ain't the fault of your nurse practitioner.
Not by a long shot.

Thune and Johnson had more to do with it than old pudding brained Pedo 47.

They got what they voted for.....tax cuts for billionaires and bankruptcy for farmers and the middle class. Here is their chance to show us how they pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

The GOP serves the 1% only and the big ----------- bill proves it.

Guess so many are not aware that it was the dems that set the COVID subsidiary to sunset this year - NOT Trump. Also, those prices were already rising before COVID hit.

A point to ponder:

MSTRBTR is a government dependent who has always relied on government handouts to pay for his medical. He has nothing meaningful to add to the conversation because all his working adult life... he avoided working in the "free-market" and manipulated the government into taking care of him... and his family... for his entire life.
