We have no kids at home. We keep telling the pharmacy NO CHILDPROOF CAPS! We keep having to go back to tell them. My wife’s arthritis makes it difficult for her to open them.
It must be made clear any Congress member that votes to adopt Ryan’s tsunami of a health bill will be voted out at the end of their term. Especially Ryan himself; that yahoo needs to go.
“I am going to take care of everybody…much better than they’re being taken care of now…The government’s going to pay for it…People are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition, with lots of companies, with great companies. And they can have their doctors, they can have their plans, they can have everything.”—Trump on health care, during the campaign
The Repubs like to preach about competition, how about we introduce some competition, not just in insurance with a public option, but with a vastly expanded “VA for all”. It’s an unholy triad of insurance companies, Big Pharma, and corporatized medical care, that has landed us in this mess.
Trump will allow whatever these Republicans want. America is no longer America if you have not noticed it yet. The Koch’s have their country, but no one else does.
“I am not going to take care of anybody…much worse than they’re being taken care of now…The government’s going to make you pay for it…People are not going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition, there won’t be lots of companies, and they won’t be great companies. And they can’t have their doctors, they can’t have their plans, they can’t have anything.” – what Trump meant on health care, during the campaign
Had a good group plan (like Congress) that wasn’t cheap, but the annual premium increase under ACA was less than 3%, prior to that, average annual increase was 15%! It wasn’t perfect, thanks to Republican inserts, but it was working toward improvements, in spite of those Republican efforts. “Trumpcare” is a death sentence for a very large group of folks.

The Senate, at least, seems willing to keep the cap on, for now!

Maybe Ryan’s core healthcare plan is based on Logan’s Run?

There is a VERY big difference between being “available” and being “affordable.”

Or even accessible! A great comment by a caller to NPR today: I have ACCESS to a Rolls Royce. I can’t AFFORD a Rolls Royce!
