And the cost for those extra millions to be uninsured? Whoops, upon scrolling down I see that the repeal will actually be deficit reducing even with the lost revenue from the taxes on the uber wealthy. That will be used as a cudgel to justify the repeal even as tens of millions more are left uninsured I’m afraid.
Nothing to the rich Republicans!
But at least they will have “access.” Right guys?
Well, it’s up to people.
Republicans may scream, “You lie!”
But most of the people who are afraid of losing coverage are not going to listen or believe them.
None of the people involved care as none are likely to be in office by then. The Donald might even be in jail.
Goes without saying it will be higher than ACA. Gotta pay for those huge tax cuts for the ultra-rich somehow.
No, it’s not 24 million more uninsured. It’s 24 million more with the freedom to choose whether to pay rack rate at the doctor, wait until they get sick enough to go to the emergency room, or die.
Pretty much puts up back where we were in 2009, likely with the same issues. And, the Medicare trust fund would likely also be depleted, so the impact not he medical system would be even larger than this (presuming they didn’t take that into account in the report). This is a total disaster, no wonder the Republicans have been trying to undercut the CBO.
GOP: This is far better than we expected. People shouldn’t forget, that you don’t use insurance anyway. It’s net saving. Also, the upshot is that you all get to see the very rich enjoy Tax Cuts, up to 100s of billions over 10 years. Win Win for all.
I kind of hear them screaming “Obama people! Obama people!” already…
Trump: CBO is completely owned by Obama. I just appointed Obama’s puppet as its head.
Wait a fucking second. Isn’t 24M MORE than were insured under the ACA, meaning that this plutocratic oligarch reach-around actually makes things WORSE than before “Obamacare ruined health care”???
The Donald in jail? Oh, please, let it be so…
Trump promised “MORE!”
And boy has he delivered.
Orange is the new orange?
Alternative facts!!! /snark
But it is soooooo worth it to give the rich a tax cut.
Snark aside, why do people vote for republicans?
Why outlaw abortion and make health care for those babies unaffordable?
“And all of them are poors. I told you this was a fuckin awesome plan!!!”
