[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one cares about ACA subsidies. It’s a bad hill to die on. They should have picked something more strategic. It’s made the Democrats look out of touch and nonsensical. Maybe something like the Epstein files or another issue, but the temporary ACA subsidies from COVID seem so random and unrelated to anything about funding the government or what people actually care about. The left’s people are now supposed to care about it, but no one really does. It’s a bad play.[/quote]
No one cares about subsidies? People don’t care about their health care? About their costs? What are you smoking?!
Of course, [b]Trump is always free to unveil that plan he’s been working on for 10+ years[/b].[/quote]

Excuuuuuuuse me, but that's "a concept of an idea of a plan."

Meanwhile, in Idaho people are writing their (Republican) Senator because they just realized their monthly healthcare bill will go from $51 to $2232.

[b]Idaho kicks off Affordable Care Act open enrollment as premiums are set to rise nationwide[/b]:
About 25,000 Idahoans are likely to drop their coverage for next year when enhanced subsidies expire

[quote]Many Idahoans will have to decide whether they’ll be able to afford coverage once the enhanced subsidies that kept premiums lower for many middle-class families expire at the end of the year.

Bob McMichael, 63, and his wife, Leslie, 62, already know they won’t.

Both are retired and make about $42,000 a year. They currently pay $51 a month for their ACA plan. Late last month, they got a notice that their monthly premium would increase to $2,232 next year without the subsidies.[/quote]

This timing isn't great for the GOP. Shame about that.[/quote]
