Because Trump won most states, lol.

 

 

Red states had the most people enrolled in ACA.  My point is his base will suffer.  He needs to provide a replacement.  What is his plan for health insurance?

Q. Maybe the best thing to come out of this shutdown?

A. The Fed may actually have to use more accurate, private sector data for their next meeting.

That would only prove that the data was accurate and he fired people because the information provided was not to his liking and made him look unpresidential.

Red states have the most people, period.

Why do we need a replacement?

Wasn’t obama’s plan affordable?

No one replaces a great plan.

The current plan will expire.  
The most people in those red states are suffering.  Why do you think old white people are protesting.

You still haven’t explained how it was affordable.

Was it?

If you made below $16000.00 a year you had no monthly premiums  Some plans had $0 doctors visits and I believe tier one medication may have been $2.00.  One of the plans was Ambetter.  It was based off of your zip code.  Yes it was affordable.

The more you paid into it the better your coverage was. It is income based.  If you made more you paid more but it was affordable for those who had preexisting conditions or needed surgery.

Need to read the details. There’s a clearer explanation in The Wall Street Journal today. But, it’s behind a paywall.

Note: My wife and I are on ACA & have been since 2018. We’re very familiar with the positives and negatives.

I have helped homeless people who didn’t have anything but were suffering serious medical conditions.  One person was type 1 and could not afford insulin.

My son was on Blue Cross Blue Shield bronze 6. His job did not offer health insurance.  There was a law that jobs had to provide health insurance for their full time employees.  To get around that the employer would only hire part time workers to keep from providing health insurance.

Trump winning the Schumer shutdown!
