CBO Report Says 24 Million to Lose Health Insurance Under GOP Plan

Trust-fund babies! The lowest form of life on the planet.

 

Trump supporter credits Trumpcare — which hasn’t taken effect — for dramatically lower health costs

A Tennessee woman who backs President Donald Trump credits God and the Republican health care bill — which hasn’t been voted into law — for her family’s dramatically lower insurance costs.

Charla McComic’s son recently lost his job, and his health-insurance premium dropped from $567 per month to $88, which she described as “a blessing from God” and a gift from the new president, reported the Washington Post.

The 52-year-old former first-grade teacher thinks the change is due to tax credits that would be offered under the so-called “Trumpcare” law, if and when it’s approved by Congress and signed into law — but the price drop is actually a feature of former President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act.

Workers who lose their jobs and employer-based health care coverage may enroll in Obamacare, which offers coverage based on income or possibly Medicaid for those with little or no income — like McComic’s son.

 

Can you really expect people this dumb to not vote against their own best interests? Come on! I am almost eager to see people like this get completely screwed by the Republicans again. It might be more entertaining if it didn't happen so damn often and if they didn't screw the rest of us along the way.
