your anti american hate is the rubbish
Since when are facts anti-American?

this is a chance to learn how to google buy in the end the distinction isnt relevant.
This is consistent with what the CDC has found
This is the challenge the repeal crowd has to deal with and it's why in practice the ACA isn't going anywhere for quite some time.
quoting BS crap information just doesnt cut it except for the right wing bubble types. 643,000 Bankruptcies in the U.S. Every Year Due to Medical Bills : snopes.com
Amazing what happens when a ton of people are kicked off their insurance then have to sign up again.
So what is the actual difference from before obama care when he took office compared to now?
When obama took office in 2008 he uninsured rate was 14.6
Now it is 10.6
So it only went down 4% with most of those people on Medicaid.
Not that big of a success given all the money being spent on it.
Since when is the journal of health affairs crap? Also it was a study done by the department of justice.
You don't have a clue as to what you are talking about.
Only 17% of bankruptcies are medical caused.
90% of debt is not medical.
Which means someone filing bankruptcy only has about 10% of that owed to medical.
It's difficult to conclude that bankrupt folks are awash in healthcare debt when nearly 90 percent of their obligations are unrelated to health care.
The study also reviewed Warren's early research on medical bankruptcies and found that medical spending was a factor in no more than 17 percent of U.S. bankruptcies.
A detailed analysis by The Atlantic's Megan McArdle further discredited the link between bankruptcy and medical expense. She found that Warren's team
classified a filing as a medical bankruptcy whenever unpaid medical bills were resolved through bankruptcy proceedings -- even if other debts were far
bigger contributors to insolvency.
incorrect, do your homework. you know this stuff is easy to google dont you?
now you have moved to the conspiracy thread.
they didnt make anything free, more right wing anti facts
Not to mention that many cannot afford the deductibles under the plans that they actually can afford.
Deductibles are going up again after January.
Typical liberal rubbish. They place people under a program and take credit for the numbers, and then ignore the fact that just as many people are still going broke by using the program.
I did google it.
When obama took office in 2008 the uninsured rate was 14.6. That is the baseline used to determine everything else.
2016 it has gone down to 10.6%. The majority of those are on Medicaid.
It has only gone down 4% which given the amount of money spent to support this crap means it isn't a failure.
Kinda like the war on poverty. 16 trillion dollars spent since 1965 for a 2-3% drop in the poverty rate.
Free health insurance for the bottom-feeders, paid for by those of us that work and pay our own way.
Damn those red taker states,

I see your point
Anytime libs are ready to stop all that taking in the red states just say the word and we can end medicaid, food stamps and housing subsidies in the red and blue states
When would you like to get started?
if you actually looked at the article you would see most of the taking is southern states, including texas.
Of course the irony here is that its been a hallmark of every Republican healthcare reform idea or plan to switch people into high deductible "consumer driven" plans.
Yep.. Republicans have been screaming that for a couple of decades. That Health Insurance should only be for catastrophic health costs due to disease or injury. For everyday minor doctor visits and checkups the patient would pay out of pocket. In other words HI plans would have high deductibles.
But now because of politics they are against their very own idea.
Fine
Texas is ready to end all the federal welfare programs in all the states
what say you?
obviously we should never have kept the confederacy, it has been a financial disaster.
