Answer the question, bucky. Do those who make over $200,000 need that money more than the people who need access to medicaid? If so, what do they need that money for?

LOL Cardinal. You assume people in poverty have it bad. They get free housing, They get food stamps. They don't pay taxes. They get discounted health care.
IMO that is discriminatory. People need to be less selfish and understand some people don’t like to take responsibility for their own ****.
As a nation, we are yearning for tax cuts. This is an unfortunate setback however I am optimistic this bill will get passed. Mitch mcConnell is the sheriff and will round up the votes!
Tax cuts are needed. Not only will they improve healthcare, but our overall economy.
A shame you don't see 1 Democrat Senator lending a helping hand to Trump or McConnell. Their true colors have been revealed. Democrats don't want to see improved health care. All they want to do is complain.
Tax cuts my friend will improve health care.
Here is what people on the left are missing.
Instead of spending resources on treating pepole, why isn't all our resources going on finding cures for Cancer, Aids, alzheimer, etc?
Food for thought.
Don't like taxes? Don't drive on the freeways. Don't call the fire department if your house catches fire. Don't call the police if you are robbed. Accept being attacked by the Russians, and love it..... Oh, wait, you already did that. :mrgreen:
LOL, that's got to be the worst talking point of all time. Just for example, we actually have pretty decent 'cures' for many kinds of cancer and AIDS but it doesn't do a lot of good if the people sick can't afford the good options already available.
Possible, but I doubt that is the reason. I don't know what each state thinks of Trumpcare, but nationwide there are around 55% of Americans opposed to Repeal and Replace. That may have been more opposition than some GOP senators were willing to go against. The problem with retaining the ACA is the number of insurance companies withdrawing from it leaving some without an option for insurance next year and if the predictions are correct come January of 2019 a third of the counties in the United States will be without a single insurance company to offer insurance and around a third of the counties down to one insurance company. Time will tell if that is correct. But if so, both Trumpcare and Obamacare will soon within a year or two or three leave 20 million Americans without insurance.
Hard realities for either side to face when all they are focused on is the here and now. Not next year or the year after or the future. Something needs to be done, neither side seems willing and each side is only interested in their own political agenda and not the nations.
I'm a foot soldier Cardinal. I have been to people's homes and spoken to the "people." Medicaid is a horrible system and no decent citizen wants to be on Medicaid. It doesn't improve a persons life.
Medicaid needs to be defunded otherwhise, it will be completely non-existant in 2028. Medicaid is essentially a ponzi-scheme.
If you want to continue to fund a broken system, good for you. What are your suggestions on funding it? Should we roll back on national security and make us more susceptible to terrorist attacks?
When did we find a cure for AIDS? Do you have some sort of inside information because last I heard AIDS has no cure.
IMO, it's people who make a killing and don't want to pay into a society that gave them the opportunity to want for nothing that are the real deadbeats.
Mitch McConnell to delay the vote until after recess - CNNPolitics.com
:applaud
Looks like just enough GOP Senators decided to stare down the fact that Trumpcare would have thrown over 20 million Americans off of insurance coverage!
Winston, do you think it is fair for middle/upper class Americans pay for people who choose to be unhealthy? How many people do you see that smoke? When they purchase a ciggarette the box clearly says "MAY CAUSE CANCER." Yet they continue to smoke.
Is that fair people are paying for people who choose to be unhealthy?

America stopped realistically and prudently planning for the future a very long time ago, did you not notice?
How many went on medicaid because of ObamaCare? They dont have that problem.
The problem with ObamaCare was that it made not the slightest effort to fix the crap way we deliver healthcare, .

The problem with ObamaCare was that it made not the slightest effort to fix the crap way we deliver healthcare, it was nothing but the cutting down of healthcare rationing because Obama decided that class inequities in rationing can not be allowed to stand. Either that or he is so stupid that he does not believe there should be any rationing at all. Then he got a wild hair and decided that men need to subsidize women, because men in this society dont have it bad enough already. Then because he could not get the numbers to work he lied about the numbers, he created a system that was not fully funded, which he hoped I am sure would ruin insurance companies and drive a follow on system that does not use private insurance but what it tends to do is destroy healthcare providers, and further destroy faith in government.
LOL, that part was funny. We poor, oppressed men.
FWIW, women subsidized our prostate cancer and ED drugs, we subsidized child birth. Why should MEN have any responsibility to pay for the cost of having kids. We've got nothing to do with that crap!

I think the 20 trillion in debt verifies your statement. Life for today as their will be no tomorrow. That is our elected leaders mantra.
Magic Johnson has had AIDS for 26 years. Seems like he's doing pretty well. Lots of others with AIDS are living a very good life with the disease in remission or very well controlled. Same with many forms of cancer.
Magic Johnson has lived a lot longer than most people who contracted AIDS in that era. Couldn't have anything to do with the fact that he could afford the expensive medication necessary while others couldn't. It's a good thing the cost of these medicines have come down since then.

Men have little to do with deciding to have a baby, and this is after men pay for the contraception services.
Women decide, men pay, and a lot of folks like it that way.
