I can’t wait for the mental gymnastics you guys will be doing when Trump supports it.

Imagine asking how we’re going to pay for something that costs less than what we’re already paying. But Ocasio-Cortez is the idiot that doesn’t understand basic economics and how things work in the real world. You guys are fucking clowns.

    Can I keep my doctor and save $2,500.00 a year?

    No, you can not keep your doctor. You will be switching to Dr Kevorkian. Please schedule an appointment ASAP.

    The far right would rather spend more money for healthcare, if it means that poor people will suffer.

    Otherwise, it would give them less to feel superior about, and to them, the extra cost is worth the sense of superiority.

    And the perverse logic goes further.

    Poor folks on the far right, would rather not have healthcare, then admit that socialized medicine would be better for the country.

    The only way it will ever actually be cheaper is if REAL competition is added to the market place.

    And considering Big Medicine & Big Pharma rains money down both sides of the aisle, I ain't gonna hold my breath.



    Untill then, yore* just pandering to know-nothings who like the taste of your jizz. Hi HondoFS!

    I don't want to spend any tax dollars on healthcare. It's not the government's job.

    Don't look at your paystub. Not that you have a job.

    First of all, "poor folks" already have Medicaid. Second of all, I'd rather that the government got the hell out of the healthcare business entirely. Other than that, you fucking nailed it.
