No one is trying to fund health care for illegal immigrants.
Not a fan of Peanuts, are ya?
Yup. A perfect metaphor for trusting Republicans.
Nope. That was a lie told by Trump and Republicans.
The Democrats took someone else's idea and mutated it into the maladroit Obamacare system.
Eat their own?? A deal was made. Now let's see if the deal holds with the Republicans.
That is yet to be seen in the long run.A big fat “L” for the democrats.
FYI, undocumented immigrants are not eligible to receive ACA. Undocumented immigrants are eligible to receive emergency care under the EMTALA, a Federal law. Would you also deny this kind of care? Thanks for sharing.
Not all of them are cannibals.
Yup. Between Schumer and those eight senators.
It only became real in Schumer's mind when the flying public began to have to worry about cancelled flights and cancelled vacations. The SNAP using public got scant attention in comparison. Pity. Some of them needed the food.
They may have a vote but that does not guarantee they will get what they want. I don't see the willingness of either side to compromise. I expect the next round of government shutdown to happen in January, and this time Schumer may not find anyone in his party willing to reopen the government.
If I were of a conspiratorial bent I might apprehend the GOP engineering the American population to be short lived, under educated but hard working.
They really didn't change all that much from the Heritage Foundation plan. Some added regulations like not disallowing preexisting conditions and the like, but the basic framework is the same as when the Heritage Foundation came up with it in 1989, and when the GOP proposed it in 1993.
FYI
Those eight Democrat senators made a prior deal (OK, I can't provide verbatim evidence of this) within their own party leadership to be the sacrificial lambs who would vote against the left wing of their party to reopen the government. The left wing would have been happier with a year long shutdown, a general strike, and the occupation of Washington DC forcing the government to fall. Those folks are furious with these eight compromising senators even if they did get an agreement on a mid-December vote on health subsidies.
The Heritage Foundation criticizes the Affordable Care Act (ACA) for increasing health insurance premiums, limiting choices, and making insurance more expensive, particularly in the individual market. They argue that the law's regulations and mandates have caused sticker shock and pushed more Americans onto government-run health programs. Additionally, the Heritage Foundation contends that the ACA restricts market competition by preventing insurance sales across state lines and limiting options like health savings accounts.
An unsupported assertion holds no weight but rather, remains merely an opinion. Thanks for sharing.
And then the nazis attacked the Soviets and took all of Poland until the allies beat the nazis and Poland was free (for a little while anyway). Moral of the story is work with others to accomplish a goal which is something that our two parties can’t seem to be able to do. The dems are going further left while the gop keeps going further right.
ah, the nazi card - been a while since that has been pulled out.
