Republicans Healthcare Plan Is Nothing More Than A Yugo With American Tires.

They screwed us and I am ANGRY!!!!!

The Republicans gave us 123 pages of changes to a 12,000 page healthcare atrocity forced on us by Obama and the Democrats.

Call your Representative and Senator and demand they go back and start from scratch.

If they give us this, then the Republicans will own it with the Democrats.

KILL OBAMACARE and start from scratch!!!!

I guess I need to adjust my thinking... When I take a tax deduction I am really getting a subsidy from the government - Like my personal exemption subsidy or my mortgage interest subsidy.

Seems to me the same thinking applies to getting a tax credit for insurance... it is either a tax deduction or its a subsidy. I understand Trump is going to adjust the subsidy brackets on income for the middle class.

On another point: why should someone wait until they are ill to buy insurance? Seems appropriate to me to allow insurance companies the ability to slap a healthy surcharge for doing so.

You're right about RyanCare.

Trump better let Ryan know that this is a complete non-starter, or ...

There should be no more ability for companies to deduct insurance payments on behalf of their employees.

Why? Are they not paying for at least 50% of the policy cost?

Perhaps you could do a TV commercial for Yugo with it. Thieves come to steal your ‘vintage’ Yugo, and you scream out the bedroom window, let go of my Yugo.

I was actually kidding. But it’s certainly possible to see employment based health insurance as a non-taxed wage benefit to workers, for which employers take a deduction, and there is nothing similar on the individual side, an asymmetry that the Ryan proposal does address.

Hey now, I think they make great yard planters. That's why I have three in my back yard, and the grandkids love them:

Enough with the back room writing of bad bills. This does little to nothing To change it and won’t fix a single problem with our system. Come to the table with a great plan and work back to compromise. Not this. We control all three branches won on this issue and need to see better. This is garbage.
