"Trump administration FREEZES BILLIONS in AHCA payments to health care insurers". Why doesnt King don just MURDER all patients?

They were impotent inept and couldn't repeal and replace the Affordable Health Care Act thought they had 7 years to do so and PROMISED it would be bigger better cheaper medical insurance coverage. They failed miserably abysmally completely!  So they are trying every which way to get rid of it by a drip drip drip drip. Be a man King don. Set up your firing squads everywhere there are folks who need health care. Have the graves already dug. Once dead they just drop right in automatically. Very efficient of you to think of it.  You get rid of the folks you despise and the safety net you despise! Just think how much mileage that will buy you at your rallies of the adoring faithful. How much you can brag about how you saved billions of bucks. But don't tell them how you plan to FUNNEL those billions into the pockets of your obscenely wealthy oligarch billionaire buddies setting aside ample billions for you and your family of course. You have such a big heart. It literally must be bursting out of your chest with pride. Keep it up. You are destined for greatness.

    Because unlike the Left, he prefers to do things legally.

    Sounds like something the Trump admin. would do.  We all know that Trump doesn't care jack squat about the "little people" in this country (those with less money than himself), as they can't do anything for him.  To him their only use is to shine his gold golf clubs and bring him his golf cart.   Besides, the less of them there are, the more money there is for him.  Trump cares only for Trump.  I'm not even sure he really cares about his family.  

    There is NO WAY to make the AHCA better without reining in on health insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies - and NO ONE is about to do that.  After all, this is America.  These companies have a god-given RIGHT to screw over any and every one they can in order to make themselves richer (all from their overseas headquarters).  That's the "American Way".  The republicans can promise better healthcare all they want, but to do so would mean pissing off their biggest donors/contributors (directly or indirectly) - and they aren't about to do that.  Heck, even the democrats aren't that stupid.
    Wait... healthcare costs money.  ANd everyone knows there isn't enough money to pay for it and all the other things Trump wants (e.g. a golden border wall in the shape of a "T", a gigantic golden statue of Trump in New York harbor, a golden Trump bridge in California).  So if they deny healthcare to billions and they die off, then there'll be enough money to give healthcare to the surviving rich AND pay for Trump's monuments to himself.

    I saw people on the news who lost their jobs because of his stupidity, and yet still think he's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

    Correct Kg, It doesn't matter to them at all what he says or does including anything that adversely harms them. They support him to the end of days no matter what. Odd that they support what will eventually do them in too. At least those among them who are not obscenely wealthy greedy billionaires. Go figger! Happy Monday! :)

    King don is obsessed with Barack Obama. He is so jealous of Barack he wants to obliterate anything he ever did as prez. So he eliminates all environmental protections (California is giving him the middle finger on that. California is continuing on  its merry way ignoring the evil stupid dumba** in the White House.) King rat Eliminates all rules/regs so that the big business boys make lotsa lotsa lotsa money honey. They care about TODAY'S bottom line only. There is no tomorrow. They don't have the imagination or creativity or inventiveness to project and reflect and think about what the consequences of the greedy stupidity will have on tomorrow. It's insane that King rat can do that. Insane that Congress allows him to do that. It is a perfect storm of evil Russian-inspired bully power grab coupled with spineless terrified whinya** politicians. What could be better for the rat King than that? And yes his fans and supporters and enjoyers cheer him on. The fact that many of them are being screwed or will be matters not to them. It is a circumstance beyond imagining in some alternate universe where logical is convoluted and morality is pretzelized demonized. What magnificent thing will he destroy today? Thank you for your thoughtful reply Shuhak. I honestly think it's better that he murder everyone he detests. Get us out of our misery. Leave the country to him and Russia and his supporters . It's worth nothing to us anymore. SIGH. Happy Monday! :)

    Congress allows it as republicans hold the majority.  They're more concerned at keeping their precious party intact than anything else.  So whatever Trump says/does (even if it they know it to be wrong/bad), they're going to support him.

    No, is part of them being in a rush to pass OC that they failed to write were parts could not be challenged and loose in court.

    The payments were not illegal -so in the meantime while Trump Admin suspends payments are people going to get their coverage when they need it? An indefinite delay? This post was edited by Kittigate at July 8, 2018 2:10 PM MDT

    That will be up to the states. They are in charge of that.

    Might not be a very good time for anyone to require health care.

    Just how do you figure the payments were not illegal? The courts ruled they were.

    Ok I assumed payments were in error rather than illegal. Dunno how it would be illegal to make innocent payments for one's health care. Should not be those payers for health care to suffer any penalty.

    It has to do with states that did not expand Medicaid and did not set up their own OC website. The law was written so that in order to get the gov money for those policies these things must have taken place. And there since have been legal challenges to the law. The courts have ruled that the payments are illegal. 
    The Dems knew their would be states which would not follow through because of opposition to the bill. They should have written it so it could not have been challenged...something saying that the Fed would have the right to step in if the state did not do it designated part.
     (My state not only did not do either one....we passed a constitutional amendment saying it could not be implemented here and we could not be assessed the fine.....and there is in fact an exemption to the fine in my state)

    Unfortunately this is the kind of extreme and outrageous comment that is allowed on this site. Going far beyond reason or good taste or respect.   Person who makes the nastiest suggestion somehow "wins" and their own category while the rest of us are welcome to block if somehow we can't or choose not to take it.
