You cannot be civil to the enemy, Senator Alexander. Haven't you heard Shrillary?
I think healthcare is one of the least important issues for Americans.
Why don't the Repubs use this to say the Dems are against expanding healthcare insurance options?
This is why we need more Trump senators, to make these RINO Senators irrelevant.
Shhhh. Nothing to see here. Collins is the hero of the Senate!
Because it makes the politicians' industry cronies rich?
I think that one of the factors that drove up medical insurance costs prior to Obamacare is the fact that most people expected "insurance" to cover everything, and would not pay for minor items themselves. Obamacare double and tripled down on that premise... yet does not cover anything, given the sky-high deductibles.
Because they are IDIOTS chasing this FAKE OPIOID CRISIS.
One of the Pacs is running the closed rural hospital ads, blaming the Republican Blackburn who is running for Corker’s seat. She hasn’t come out nor any one else to say it was PART OF OBAMACARE she didn’t vote for.
The other is a fat woman B. about no maternity coverage in Medicaid but congress got Platinum care. DEM passed along with the auto pay raise.
Nor will she take advice from published authors on PAIN, believes the crapola put out by the Fake numbers from the Biased CDC Director whose own Street Junkie 37 yr old son OD on Heroin/Fen. Has Illicit drug charges pending in MD.
He’s declared war on prescription Pain meds. Man is a HIV questionable published Virologist. Kolodney owns Suboxone clinics. Intractable Pain patients are not addicts. Now Cancer patients can’t get pain meds with out jumping through many hoops and 20-30 pharmacies, CVS, Walmart, Walgreen’s are the worst about not filling their scripts from the Oncologist not even phone calls from them work.
Several years ago, post ACA passage, I was in a social media argument with a ditz about “pre-existing conditions”. She insisted that simply changing the law about “pre-existing conditions” would cause people to die.
I reminded her that under the current law (back then), anybody who had a lapse in insurance that would cause a condition to be labelled “pre-existing” was a criminal for not having insurance at some point. Obama’s law. It was illegal to not have insurance.
Everyone should have the option of catastrophic care. The terms should be upfront and very clear that this is basically provided so you don’t go bankrupt. Sort of like liability on an old car...it’s up to you to know the limits of these plans.
The brief conservative love affair with Susan Collins is now over. Mark your calendars.
Tell that to the Medicare/Tricare Life who have a DICTATORSHIP plan. We have no right of appeal. And if they say they don’t cover a med, or treatment YOU pay for it out of pocket. No hearing, dental, or vision unless it is disease related. Then they are picky what they cover. No hardware stuff like dentures or hearing aids even if it’s a medical condition caused.
Seen those Hep C commercials for seniors? $85K for treatment. Now they are pushing Gardasil 9 for those over 45. Unless you are doing multiple partners, no need. It’s a D. STD that only covers 8 out of 30 strains, not a anti-cervix cancer vaccine, it’s a sexually transmitted disease.
The Demagogic Party is scheduled for a major procedure in early November.
Note to Susan Collins: So choice for thee, but not for me, eh?
Commie-Care don’t like competition? How bout dat
Never saw a dictator that liked competition.
The Marxist Dems want every single American citizen on the federal dole, like a crack dealer wants everyone in the neighborhood addicted to crack. And neither of them like competition.
Because the Dems think you are too stupid to know what you need and they like getting piles of cash from big business.
“with Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) voting with Democrats in favor of overturning the short-term plans.”
Well, that didn’t last very long. Was truly thinking of contributing to her. Just went out the window.
You can see a noticeable change in the Democrat congress critter ads here in our television market in the last few days.
It was the normal "I will be an independent voice for Pennsylvania" which is code for "I'll vote with the Rs once in a blue moon when my party gives me permission to do so."
The new theme is "I'll fight to keep insurance companies from charging more for pre-existing conditions" which is really code for "I'll force healthy young people to subsidize people with pre-existing conditions by cutting off their access to affordable health insurance which they can actually afford."
IOW, we glorious Democrats are going to keep ObaMaoCare. They are hoping young people will be too dense to figure it out and more older people will vote "D" to keep their free stuff even if the real result will be more people going uninsured.
Collins has not redeemed herself. We need 5 more conservatives just to counter the BS GOP left Rinos.
It seems like the success of the American economy and the security of America relies heavily on Trump’s executive orders. I find this a dangerous situation when Trump leaves office. Congress should be busy drafting legislation to enshrine these executive orders.
