@coldjoint,
Oh really?
Well democrats wanted single payer insurance and to cut the grubby, greedy republican insurance companies out completely.
Why do we need insurance companies?
A pool of money set aside through a healthcare tax would pay for everyone affordably but republicans fought that idea tooth and nail.
Why? Well, because republicans are backstabbing traitors and they took money from the insurance companies to help these cutthroat companies to continue to get rich off of sick people's misery and suffering. Maybe that is why it is not affordable?
We would not even have something approaching affordable health insurance if it were not for Obama, Pelosi, Reid and the democratic party.
We would go back to the way it was. People would pay into the system for years until they got sick and once they were sick then the insurance companies would deny their coverage due to preexisting conditions...
Being a human being in need of healthcare was the most often sited preexisting condition.
Obamacare is not as affordable because of the sabotage and opposition that the policy faced from the beginning by republicans.
The affordable part had to be stripped out because republicans cried too much over losing their free meal ticket. That is the very worst kind of socialism... Paying the greedy rich republicans a ransom to allow the people in need of healthcare access to healthcare...
This is why the premiums are so high.
And you sit back snugly defending the criminals who are responsible for this debacle instead of attempting to modify Obamacare and finally make it affordable by cutting out the republican's free lunch ticket.
Affordable healthcare is not on your agenda at all and you are certainly not pro-life...
And the republican death machine wants to go back to the old way of denying people due to preexisting conditions... Their take the money and run strategy.
