[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since Obamacare priced health insurance out of reach for tax-paying middle-income people (who previously could afford care) while providing free care to low-income people, how about for the next three years we give the free care to the middle-income people and no care to the poor. We'll take turns! Then we can switch back again. It's not fair that the poor get free care and moderate earners can't afford it all.[/quote]

What total BS. Middle class pay more for healthcare, but they can afford it. They may not like their premiums, but they pay them. The poor CAN'T pay them. Period. The poor go without health care, or at least they did before the ACA.

Every single anti ACA poster on this board has whined about how their premiums have risen since Obamacare was passed. So what? So you pay a little more, so what? I'm happy to pay more so poor people get coverage. I can't turn a blind eye to the suffering of my fellow humans, and by paying a little more for health insurance, I'm allowing them to get healthcare, which is humane and right. [/quote]
DP.. the new bill will cause states to cut subsidies to middle class. Right now, some lower middle class do get subsidies.  It also would cut subsidies to most states. WV, for example, would see a decrease in subsidies of $1bil over six years. Honestly, I can't see how WV senators would vote for this.  They want a decrease in their subsidies?
