Trump told Republicans not to “waste” their time on extending the enhanced ACA subsidies set to expire, saying he’d only support “sending the money directly back to the people.”
Republicans are careening to a health care cliff with no solution in hand. An estimated 22 million people in the U.S. are about to see their health insurance premiums soar by, in some cases, thousands of dollars per month, as billions in funding for the Affordable Care Act expires on Dec. 31. The expiring funds, costing about $35 billion per year, were first passed during the pandemic to subsidize insurance payments, capping premiums for a “benchmark” ACA, or “Obamacare,” plan to 8.5% of income.
But they promised!
Who would have ever guessed that the hypocrite lying liars that always lie would ever lie about such a thing!? Well I never!
I’m so glad our representatives aren’t the absolute peak of naive and gullible of all people in existence. It would really suck to be depending on insanely naive and pathetic people.
