Trump to end Obamacare subsidies that help low-income Americans

Just an observation. Trump promised to build a wall and Mexico was going to pay for it. The "Mexico is going to pay for it" portion
was an integral part of the promise, and anybody with a half a brain knew that this wasn't going to happen. So he should get off that
subject, that would cost us 35 billion. We now have 200-300 billion dollars of hurricane destruction to resolve. What is he thinking??

 

You can stop parroting the exaggeratied the deficiencies of the ACA. You now have your promised "something terrific!" that covers "everybody!" Trump®Care.

Ignore insurance analysts' concluding that it will deprive millions of coverage, screw the middle class especially, and drive up the deficit. The Messiah has delivered.

Trump's America need not acknowledge the repeatedly-demonstrated paradigm of single-payer universal coverage at far lower cost. The ideological dogma of trumpery forbids recognizing reality when it does not comport with an article of faith.

Now that the promise of "something terrific!" has been fulfilled, coal has become the energy source of tomorrow, steel production is at 1950s levels, and Studebakers and Hudsons are again rolling off the Detroit assembly lines (as the atmosphere is blithely impervious to all that industrial effluvium, of course) we can rally to "Birther!" revival meetings when not raging about the occasional genuflection during a song amidst a sporting venue's solemn foreplay.

The Word of the Lord is now to be found in hysterical pissy tweets!

"I know words! I have the best words!"

​

(He's so special he can grab Harvey Weinstein by the p****!)​

 

Neither he nor his groveling minions are bound by the constrains of reality. They have crossed over into The Trump® Zone.

 

What makes you think the Lord is pleased? He provided free health care and was the archetype of giving.

 

How do you think Insurance markets Work?I will explain it in Layman terms since I have a background in the Industry, You have one group who never use their policies pay for another group that claims so if you are sick of paying for everyone else and just want to pay for yourself do not get insured. In the event you get really sick who do you think will pay for all your treatment ?and I hope you do not! someone else has to subsidize ya get it ? The Cost of Care Far outweighs the premiums in most cases. On the Subject of Trump cancelling the payments, that's very delicious red meat for the base but in reality less money in the pool means can you guess where I am going with this as the cost need to shift? just in case you miss it well the healthier people and sick people have to pay more so essentially you are cheering to pay more!. strange times .Trump is a phenomenon he is the only world who can get a crowd to cheer an increase in their own expenses amazing guy! #Winning #MAGA

But never mind we have lost any sense of critical thinking just blindly support the Teflon Don.

Solutions :
The Best option would either a full and complete repeal of Obamacare and let the free Market work or the federal government will have to help absorb the cost with the condition of reforms. I think Rand Paul has a fantastic idea the only problem is it is not LAW.

But To think what Trump did will reduce insurance premiums is beyond Stupidity.

 

You're confusing two things to happened to occur in the same week. This has nothing to do with Rand Paul or Trump's executive order.

This is about Trump's announcement that he'll end payments to insurers he's required to make. He started telegraphing this back in April so this summer Trump's expected action was priced into many premiums for 2018. He added 15-25 percentage points (depending on the insurer and the market) to premium increases for next year. And he did it deliberately.

 

Trump is intent on destroying everything Obama accomplished regardless of who it damages. Iran will be a big one and likely lead to two(2) new nuclear players under his "Watch".

 

You remember when the democrats squealed with delight when Obama said he has a pen and a phone?


Well Trump has one better a big fat eraser ..


.

 

Yes.

Trump is a completely UNPREPARED MORON with no clue about the responsibilities of his office.

 

The Senate didn't sign the EO.

 

Why should he get off the subject that cost taxpayers over a 100 billion a year, every year?

 

Oh, GAWD! That mouth looks exactly like.........and I used to think it was such a delicate little rosebud of a mouth....now it looks like the owner...

 

He is dealing with what Obama and the Democrats gross disparity between what they promised and what they did and Obama's unconstituional and illegal subsidies to big business. I thought you opposed corporate welfare.

 

It reminds me of that old joke about "Blower's Cramp".

Oh, and back on topic, Trump's EO on health care once again proves that he is a MORON.

 

The CSRs don't benefit insurers, they lower people's deductibles and copays. The benefits flow entirely to people.

 

The subsidies are unconstitional and illegal why don't you deal with that argument. Your guys set this up not Trump so stop shaking your rattle and get the Democrats to actually work to fix this mess they created.

 

These are premium subsidies going to the insurers and they are unconstitutional and illegal.
"ObamaCare’s Premium Tax Credits can be paid to your insurer in advance to lower your monthly premium on a Marketplace plan or adjusted on your tax returns."

No, these aren't premium subsidies. They're reimbursement insurers get for paying part of people's deductibles and copays for them. That's why they're called cost-sharing reductions.

How can you have such a strong opinion on something when you have no understanding of the issue?

 

Slowing down increases won't help?

The subsudies are unconstitutional and illegal and Obama and the Demofrats created this mess and now need to stop obstructing and helpnthe Republicans fix their mess and make it constituional and legal.

 

Obama violated the Constitution and the law with the subsidies. The court has rules as such. The federal goverment cannot unconstituionally illegally dole out money. Trump did the correct thing to end unconstituional and illegal government payouts.

Now since the Democrats created this mess its high time they stopped their obstruction and offered workable solutions or get out of the way of Republican and vote for theirs or we run them out of office and elect people who will.

 

Not any more. He has proven that with more border guards, fear of getting caught, new and modern technology (drones, etc), that the number of incursions can be reduced dramatically without a wall that may have very limited success at a huge cost of 35 billion. That money can better be used for infrastructure, inner cities, and hurricane relief. The infrastructure expense has been estimated to be in the area of four trillion dollars, the rebuilding of our military to be about one trillion, and he will have increased the national debt ,when his
regime finally ends, by thirteen trillion dollars. That is a lot of moolah.

 

When you are older and your body starts to fall apart, you will have a different viewpoint, yes?

 

Good, cause you don't pay for them now

 

I agree !!! Well Said.
