Trump: Executive Order Will Deliver 'Great, Great, Insurance'

Are you asking for guaranteed healthcare or health insurance?

I think my question was pretty straight forward, how do you think repealing the ACA is going to help those folks? Right now they can't be refused due to pre-existing conditions and can get their care without yearly or lifetime caps. And since age is not a discriminator those in the middle age bracket don't get their costs increased.

How is repealing the ACA going to help them?

So you don't want insurance you want guaranteed care.

You answer with a Krugman **** piece? There isn't anything Krugman doesn't think more government can solve. He's a grade A partisan moron.

Instead of an ad hominem attack on Krugman, why don't you try to refute something that he wrote? I assume that you cannot.

The ACA is clearly insurance that provides all those things that Praxas mentioned. Your answer isn't an answer to the question, "how do you think repealing the ACA is going to help those folks?" We can assume that repealing the ACA doesn't help them.

I know Krugman is not stupid. Hell, I have no doubt his intelligence outstrips my own, ( and Im pretty bright ) but I usually have no problem debunking much of the crap he puts out, especially when it comes to the ACA.

Why ? Because his loyalty is to Party politics and not to the truth.

So repealing the ACA won't help the folks that I mentioned, thank you.

"Please refute this hyper-partisan's position".

Yeah, no.

What is help?
You aren't asking for Insurance you want guaranteed care paid for by others.

So, for the sake of argument explain how repealing the ACA is going to help those I listed in care OR Insurance. The answer is, it isn't going to help them at all no matter whether it is care or insurance.

I'm sorry, are these people helpless, incapable beings that need their betters in government to make life better?

You clearly don't remember life for those folks before the ACA. It's also clear you have a "****em I got mine" mentality so there is no point in discussing this with you further as you feel they should just go without care or just die. I just wish the politicians on the right would be as honest with their mentality as you so people could vote them out of office instead of hearing their bull**** about how they care about the people.

I remember that you had to maintain insurance and couldn't just wait till you were sick to sign up.

And many were kicked off their insurance due to yearly and lifetime caps as well as when it was found they had something like cancer. Apparently you want to return to the days when having a condition was a death sentence because your insurance could kick you off. Again, the one thing I appreciate is your honesty on the matter. I only wish your fellow righties in office were as blunt and wouldn't lie so people could vote them out of office.

You want lifetime healthcare provided via the government. I don't believe that is an economically viable option

Obama administration warns of double digit premium hikes for 2017

2016.....
1/3 of US Counties will only have 1 insurer on their exchanges

Your'e right, elections have consequences.
ObamaCare's was driving up premiums and deductibles long before Trump was even a candidate,

I had double digit increases for years before the ACA.

And you don't have to buy insurance on an exchange.

I'm definitely conflicted with him using an EO to do this. Seems like the wrong way to do the right thing.

sorry trouble, that's just you looking at the world through the deluded prism of conservative narratives again. He's doing the wrong thing. We know you obediently believe "Obamacare bad" but that doesn't justify making people pay more or driving up the deficit.
 
Does any Trump supporter think this executive order will actually accomplish this "great great insurance" claim>
