Better than anything the democrats have

Republicans broke their pick trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Part of the problem was that they had absolutely nothing to replace it. But the main reason Obamacare survives today is the PEOPLE LIKE IT! 🤣🤣🤣

@Flyingsaucesir Trump fixed the forced insurance part on everyone though.

@CourtJester
Yeah, so irresponsible dolts can go uninsured, play dangerous games, get seriously injured, become wards of the County, let the public pick up the tab. Great 😐

@Flyingsaucesir
It’s not my responsibility to pay for your insurance or anyone else’s. If people can’t take care of themselves, I wouldn’t be too tore up if they rotted in a ditch.
If you’re not on disability or social security; a good job offers insurance. That’s 100% on you buddy.

@CourtJester
You completely missed the point. People who don't buy insurance for themselves often end up having their medical bills paid by the taxpayers. A young guy thinks he is invincible, but then he crashes his motorcycle and winds up with a broken back. He doesn't have insurance. Who pays for his care? The taxpayers. Or someone gets sick and cannot work. They lose their job, and quickly spiral down into homelessness. Now they are both sick and indigent. They don't have a personal physician. They have a long series of crises on the street. Somebody always calls an ambulance. Now the type of care they get is the most expensive, last-minute, emergency room interventions that could have been avoided if they could only see a doctor on a regular basis. This is a scenario that is played out on our streets every day. Taxpayers are on the hook for hundreds of billions of dollars every year. Hell, the patient doesn't even have to be homeless. They may be just getting by, but not able to afford insurance. So they never see a doctor, and then one day they find a funny-looking mole, or a lump, or an unquenchable thirst, or any one of a thousand things that would have been small potatoes if it had been caught early. But now it's too late. The most expensive care is now necessary. And who pays for it? The taxpayers.
