I don't either, and it illustrates the problem of leaving a national health service underfunded, not that the model as a whole is bad.

but in the real world... having your health care at the mercy of politicians can literally become a death trap my health insurance is actually a product of a local non-profit healthcare system that developed around a large hospital. no politicians involved. just doctors, administrators, a board of directors... their insurance covers services with that hospital, various associated clinics, specialized heart and cancer centers, plus a network of authorized providers all over the state. there's a deductible that keeps me cost conscious and a maximum out of pocket that keeps me from going bankrupt. they also have associated networks out of state so if i'm traveling i can go there. works kinda like a co-op. it's really pretty good. now they have video visits which are free of charge. i can basically get a nurse practitioner over video chat in less than 15 minutes, then be issued a prescription or referred to urgent care, etc. not as nice as having a doctor do home visits but it's quick and at my fingertips. |

For anyone with their eyes open, Chomsky removed any legitimacy they had in the 1980's. The millenials seem to think they know everything because they get their propaganda so fast. We have video pods going uip and down the avenues here in NYC broadcasting a constant stream of propaganda. I think Streisand exemplifies the Resistance, they scream inanities about Trump but are soft on child rape. This is why the "dems" were so upset when Trump shut down the border, their crop of fresh meat was interrupted. ~His sexual needs were his sexual needs, coming from whatever childhood he has or whatever DNA he has,” she told the Times. “You can say ‘molested,’ but those children, as you heard them say [the grown-up Robson and Safechuk], they were thrilled to be there. They both married and they both have children, so it didn’t kill them.” |

If you feel that Barr's 5 page summary of the Mueller report was a joke, imagine the 3 sentence summary they had to craft to read to Preznit Trumpo! That bitch can't read!!!!!

Dems are having a really bad week, but now this golden egg will land on their laps?

im lucky to have employee provided insurance through my wife, but im thinking about not just the obvious poor, but also all the self-employed, entrepreneurial, early retired, small business people, students, etc, who rely on this program for their safety and/or economic independence, they’re about to get fucked by this animal just out of spite for obama. i think if the shit hits the fan my state should be politically equipped to respond, but without the support of federal funds, maintaining the level of coverage is really a long shot. i think half of the population here relies on expanded medicaid. worst of all is that the party of no proposed exactly zilch while they were in control of congress, so it’s not like they have some spiffy solution to offer. it’s just right back to the abyss for many. that mother fucker... i’d wish he’d burn in hell, but he rules over the place so no use in that. 2020.... and a 2021 inauguration... well i hope it’s a long-ass lawsuit. if i’m not mistaken the supreme court works just wothin a period of a few months so if they take it up... catastrophe could arrive sooner than expected |

The fact that we are even talking about Obamacare now, and that it is in the headlines right after Mueller's great gift to Trump, speaks volumes about Team Trump's organizational skills.
Thank you Mr Trump!!

This is the part that cracks me up the most. The GOP had control of EVERTHING for two years, and what did they offer in the place of big bad evil horrible Obamacare? "We are going to have great health care. Hugely." A 5 year old must recognize that having zero alternative/plan/vision is absolutely laughable. Only in Trumpworld can such a scenario occur. I thank the political gods for this gift right after Mueller.
