It’s ok, at least churches can contribute to candidates campaigns now…

This is like the Republicans left the car lot with a steering wheel,
bragging about what a cheap deal they got on their “car.”

And mosques! After all that fear mongering about “Sharia Law” in the United States it sure would be ironic if the GOP were the ones who opened the door to letting it happen.

Well, yeah. Because most of us will be dead.

Well, a quarter of the eligible voters, gerrymandering, corporate funding, and the electoral college put them there. They would not exist if not for those things, the voters are practically a formality…

So republican insurance is alot like slots, you dump money into a private insurer gambling you don’t get a bum deal.
The house always wins.

Ha, yea, but the internets assured me it was going to be Hillary instituting Sharia Law.

The important point here is that premiums going down 10% in 10 years is very little. $300 million in this context is very little. Having twenty million people lose health insurance for negligible savings isn’t worth the trade-off.

That was at the top of Obama’s agenda right after taking everyone’s guns away but he totally spaced on it eight years in a row.

please don’t think that i am defending them or their bill that effectively condemns thousands of fellow american citizens to death, but i just have to point out that it’s interesting how many times the header photo is being used while cropping out the women in the group. i guess it does help further the outrage that only rich white men were behind this vote, but come on…

Isn’t it revealing in itself that Trump has a six-layer-deep buffer of rich white men insulating him from the nearest woman?

Also breast cancer is included on the list, but not prostate cancer. I don’t have the energy at this point to research it.

Loudermilk is a fucking tool. I tell ya, when my state of GA sends it’s people to congress, we’re not sending our best…

Good luck with that.

yes, that is also very interesting!

Except, as far as I know, much of the changes are being phased in, not implemented immediately. And this hasn’t even gone through the Senate, back through both houses to square everything up, and finally over the Trump to be signed. Even then, most of the changes will not come into effect until 2020 or so (especially the medicaid aspect, which will be highly unpopular).

So we might not get any sort of blow back until 2022 or so!

When people start dying off in droves…
When there’s not enough food to feed the masses…
When the air isn’t safe to breathe without a filter, and the water isn’t potable…

Remember who killed the world.

My mom just got signed up for her medicare benefits, after years of not having any coverage at all. When I took her to get her pills today, the price went from $150 or so to $6. Literally every older person I know loves their medicare (and many of them are conservative voters). I think if medicare went away, they might actually vote against these republicans.
