You Can Draw a Direct Line From the Failures of Obamacare to Today's Schumer Shutdown!

[Reagan]

From the article:  

"As the Schumer Shutdown enters its sixth day, the fight over healthcare continues. 

Democrats want to give illegal immigrants healthcare, and Republicans, rightly, do not. Democrats have admitted as much, too. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said, "Democrats are demanding healthcare for everybody. We want to save lives. We want to make sure healthcare is available to those who would die."

Shri Thander (D-MI), said of illegal immigrant subsidies, "If that means we gotta shut this government down, so be it" and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) admitted, "The amount of money that actually is going towards people who are undocumented is such a small portion" that Americans should be fine with forking over their tax dollars."  

This is an amazing sentence to see in a @wapo editorial. I am truly impressed:  The real problem is that the Affordable Care Act was "never" actually affordable."

The real problem is that healthcare is unaffordable. If we’re spending over 15% of GDP for mediocre results the system is broken, not the funding mechanism.

Illegals get healthcare at the fetid corrals they are penned in at the border. They don’t qualify for Medicaid. FIX IMMIGRATION.

Illegals go to hospitals that have to treat them......the hospitals are reimbursed.....

They have fixed immigration.....No one is coming in and if district Judges would stop interfering many would leave.....

I have "good" insurance - I pay $108.75 every 2 weeks for me and my Son..... My deductible is $3300, Once I hit that, they pay 80% until $6000, then they pay 100%.....  

Before Obamacare, my Deductible was $250, and I had $25 co-pays....  Obamacare is the Democrats first attempt at Socialism.....

Same here, and the story of millions happy with their healthcare.

Why do people continue to believe the government can improve anything if they are running it?
