Are you awful, or stupid?

Either you work at deliberately posting lies, post to mislead, post to deceive, or to post disinfo in nearly all of your posts, or you are incredibly stupid or indoctrinated by extreme right wing BS.
From the standpoint of readers of your posts, it really matters little what the influence of your deceptions are, only the reliability of your presented details matter!

The vast majority of ACA recipients receive an advanced tax credit based on MAGI income, legislated with the intent to make premiums affordable.

Trump deliberately took actions obviously, known in advance, would dramatically raise premiums of the unsubsidized ACA insureds who you insincerely or cluelessly present your concerns for!

Since you can't actually read the articles i posted and the only thing you can do is flame then i will say you have no argument at all.



So what exactly in those articles by valid sources are incorrect or wrong?
Did you not read them? if you didn't why didn't you?

Your not actually arguing anything all you are doing is flaming without cause.
So please point out what exactly in those article are wrong?
PS none those sources are right wing whatever you want to call it.

They are articles by what most people consider credible sources.
so far you are batting -1000



which has 0 to do with the rising cost of healthcare or do you not realize this?



Premiums have been increasing before trump even took over as president.
PLease actually educate yourself on the subject before commenting about other people.

..The Congressional Budget Office reported in March 2016 that there were approximately 12 million people covered by the exchanges (10 million of whom received subsidies to help pay for insurance)
and 11 million made eligible for Medicaid by the law, a subtotal of 23 million people...

..Studies of the impact of state decisions to reject the Medicaid expansion calculated that up to 6.4 million people could fall into this status.[222] The federal government initially paid for 100% of the expansion (through 2016). The subsidy tapered to 90% by 2020 and continued to shrink thereafter.[223] Several states argued that they could not afford their 10% contribution.[223][224] Studies suggested that rejecting the expansion would cost more than expanding Medicaid due to increased spending on uncompensated emergency care that otherwise would have been partially paid for by Medicaid coverage,[225]
A 2016 study led by Harvard University health economics professor Benjamin Sommers found that residents of Kentucky and Arkansas, which both accepted the Medicaid expansion, were more likely to receive health care services and less likely to incur emergency room costs or have trouble paying their medical bills than before the expansion. Residents of Texas, which did not accept the Medicaid expansion, did not see a similar improvement during the same period.[226] Kentucky opted for increased managed care, while Arkansas subsidized private insurance. The new Arkansas and Kentucky governors have proposed reducing or modifying their programs. From 2013 to 2015, the uninsured rate dropped from 42% to 14% in Arkansas and from 40% to 9% in Kentucky, compared with 39% to 32% in Texas. Specific improvements included additional primary and preventive care, fewer emergency departments visits, reported higher quality care, improved health, improved drug affordability, reduced out-of-pocket spending and increased outpatient visits, increased diabetes screening, glucose testing among diabetes patients and regular care for chronic conditions.[227]
A 2016 DHHS study found that states that expanded Medicaid had lower premiums on exchange policies, because they had fewer low-income enrollees, whose health on average is worse than that of those with higher income.[228]..
