Maybe I'm paying for it too... I pay about $5000/year for insurance thru my employer. But they won't cover a major test til I go over my out of pocket $3000 deductible. Can anyone explain the sense of that? Or is it just another Robin hood thing?

That was the cost of Obamacare. My city insurance deductible went from $1500 to $5000. My wife’s monthly premium on my employee account went from $230 A month to almost $500. The “Affordable” Care Act is affordable for those not paying.

Sure, all of a sudden people have insurance… by me (as an example) more than $6,000 a year increase every year since enacted. I probably paid an additional $60,000+ since it went into effect. Affordable? Sure, for the votes it was intended pay for.

Sure ACA needs to be changed up... what alternative does the other side have? They ran 4 years on getting rid of Obama care with no plan to help those who need it most! I'm all for ppl paying for their own stuff, but how bout the ones who can't and are ill and rely on this stuff? Of course D's will get these votes

My family’s health care plan at the time thru Blue Cross Blue Shield that served our needs went from $400 a month to $1500 a month for the same coverage. $1100 a month increase. News flash a lot of people lost their coverage an couldn’t afford new coverage, an to make things worse they financially didn’t qualify for Obama Care. Which means they increased the amount of people without insurance. It doesn’t surprise me that you would defend a TURD PIECE of LEGISLATION LIKE THE UNAFFORDABLE CARE ACT…..SMH

I'm literally debating on how to fix it and what's the alternative and you consider that defending? My wife's a nurse and were covered thru her job... I'm merely speaking on striking down something without replacing even though you told ppl for 4 years you had something better but never brought it to the table! Some folks will argue that ACA is what's keeping them alive 🤷🏾‍♂️

Here’s the deal. My family along with millions of other families lost there health care coverage that they were happy with. Like baddog said Medicaid was already available to people in need. It was nothing more than another power grab from the Democrat party. They destroyed health care coverage for 80% of the American people to give the other 20% 💩coverage with ridiculously high deductibles. I am all for helping people in need but you don’t destroy the whole health care market to give 💩 coverage to 20% of the people. If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. If you like your health care coverage you can keep your health care coverage. What a Bull💩 Lie an he knew it! Still pisses me off, not to mention Congress had their own gold standard policy’s. Obama 💩 Care are for the peasants only. Smh

That is nonsense. They were not in control with an unbeatable majority in both houses. The Senate takes 60 votes to break cloture and bring it to a vote. While 51 votes can pass a law, it takes those 60 to break the filibuster to get to the final vote. If that was not true, why are we debating gun control? Why don’t the Democrats  with control of both houses and the presidency simply pass a law? A simple answer is easy, they can’t.

If they'd come up with something maybe we can change up ACA.... Obama got his stuff through with a R majority 6 of his years... what's the problem with R's

The ACA was passed with a large Democrat majority. The Republicans didn’t have the votes to stop it. It was not a compromise.  Much like the assault weapon ban under Clinton ended the Democrats majority in a landslide victory.  The ACA ended Democrat control but the rest of Obama’s 6 years.

    • Or a less lethal option would be to have law enforcement yell improper pronouns at them...they'd scatter like sheep. I still prefer your way, lol.
    • I ve seen this done in several other countries.  And in those countries it happens very lil because of the severity of the consequences.   I saw a video of other world leaders ask “why does America allow such destructiveness” when all the civil unrest was happening because a criminal/criminals were killed  by not following commands.     we have a great system in place but it’s been compromised and we could still learn from other countries.
    • I am out of VOTES, but I will give a BIG AMEN!!!!
    • You start opening fire and drop about 10 or 12 of these protesting morons it will break up pretty quick.    This ties in with killing the chicken killing dog.
    • This is an easy one. We have let grifter unqualified coaches infiltrate our children and convince them that they will be D1 athletes if they only focus on a single sport. We've got kids, with single digit ages, playing their sport year-round to "maximize exposure" despite the fact that most college coaches on the recruiting trail will value a multisport athlete. This translates to the school year and ends up with kids being football, basketball, baseball only kids. Track is pretty much the only one left that keeps kids playing other sports and that's primarily because football coaches demand their football kids be track athletes. I literally talked to a man last night, who just moved to Texas from Oklahoma who was telling me his kid played on two different football teams during the season last year. One for his school, one for his select league. During the week the kid was a RB for his school, and on the weekends, he was a QB for his select team. This would equal 7 days a week of full contact football for a 6th grader......6th grader. Once that ends, rolls straight into 7 on 7 for the spring and back to football in the summer. All this for a kid, who seems to be a good athlete, but probably has a ceiling of D2 at best, if he doesn't burn out before that. Parents are silly and think they can develop their kids into being the next Quinn Ewers, but they completely miss the biggest factor in creating that type of athlete.....genetics. Genetics are undefeated. Always have been, always will be. Play sports because you love to compete then compete in everything you do. Quit giving bullsheet rings to "state champions" every single weekend all over the US and get back to valuing team championships won at the community level to build the continuity when they are young. This is the only way to reestablish the pride once felt by every kid in every town across Texas when they got to put on a uniform with their school colors. Otherwise, we can kiss the magic of high school sports goodbye.
