The part where most Middle Class workers can't afford it, or the part where we make too much to get help?

So, you admit that some people need help from the government to cover their medical crisis. Good start.

No, we should be able to afford to take care of ourselves. When you don't make enough to afford healthcare and you make too much to get subsidies, there's something wrong.

So, it's the employers' fault for not paying enough? Or, are insurance companies scamming Americans?

Tell it to the hundreds of thousands of people who claim that the ACA saved their lives.

Me? My family coverage went from $600 a month to $1800 a month. Scr3w the ACA.

Excellent

We did just fine without it for 99% of this nation's existence. We don't need that socialist BS or the government forcing citizens to have healthcare or pay some kind of petty fine if they choose not to participate

Leave us the hell alone government/leftists

Good riddance

Those losing insurance from this should considering getting a damn job, revolutionary idea I know

a reply to: JBurns

No, actually “we” didn’t.

*sigh*

I was uninsurable for 10 years after having cancer at age 22-23, for starters. Good times. People who say that “it worked just fine” don’t understand how easy it was to find yourself on the wrong side of an insurance company’s policies. They are as caring as credit card companies, for example, and their only motive is leeching as much profit out of the business as possible, and will do everything in their power to not help you, down to the finest of print.

Those who know, weep.

And No one stays healthy forever...

Uh. Okay. Hmmmm. Isn’t that what they were FIRST trying to prove was Unconstitutional? Before trying to chuck the whole law??

Trump has emphasized many time the preexisting protection will not be gone 😎

It's up to Congress to "pass something" 😎

Deflection....sigh. You're so predictable.

Trump promised, again and again, to protect those with pre-existing conditions.

don't worry, even if he does all the things you cry buckets about, it won't be good enough for you. Suck on that hatoraid and try not to choke. But your posts are always enlightening and full of intelligence, so there is that.

Yep they do. They seem to not remember that only McCain stopped Trump and the GOP from completely gutting the ACA and replacing it with nothing.... But this time we must trust them!

The biggest problem with healthcare and insurance is that insurance is renewed on an annual basis, while diseases do not adhere to a calendar. If you have insurance and get long term cancer they should have to treat you as long as that cancer is still in you or has a good chance of coming back, without raising premiums except on an standard age basis. Thats the deal we all deserve. ACA has saved my wife's life and continues to do so.

And the Republicans idea on preexisting conditions is that the insurance companies have to cover you, but they can "rate' you according to that illness. A bill put forth for discussion in trumps first year would have resulted in annual premiums of $160,000 for my wife. SO BS on them protecting pre-existing conditions.

So, you're still upset that you don't get to freeload off tax payers too, because you make too much money

Got it!

Dems act as though we are merely challenging that despicable socialist law through this...

In all actuality, it shreds the law entirely. By refusing to defend the ACA against a lawsuit (either from a State or private plaintiff), the default position will be to strike it down. It is up to the DOJ to decide what laws they defend in court and how they go about doing so... great to see they have decided to rid this country of socialism, one. way. or. the. other.

No... upset you people actually think we owe you healthcare and welfare. Breaking news: we do not owe you all a darn thing.

If you want healthcare, get it yourself. If you want money, earn it yourself. If you want to provide the basic necessities for yourselves, do it yourself! If you are looking for a free lunch, look elsewhere. There are no free lunches and we're sick and tired of being asked to foot the bill

The answer is "No" and good riddance to this horrible back-door "law." Another victory against the party of fake Russia collusion, fake hate crimes, identity politics, illegal immigrants, higher taxes, social programs at our expense and constant petty political jabs.

And before you ask, no, I do not care if you or whoever else has healthcare. If you can't afford it on your own, you don't deserve it. Beyond that, those who really cannot afford it already have Medicare (which they paid into for decades). Otherwise, unless your legs and arms are broke, you should be working not expecting a handout from us. The handouts are done

a reply to: sligtlyskeptical

So healthy Americans should have their arms twisted by the big bad government to keep your rates low?

What possible incentive could you offer me to do that

Our healthcare system in this country has gotten along just fine for hundreds of years without the ACA and it will get along just fine after it. There will be no doomsday nonsense. The only difference is you will just have to go in debt with medical bills instead of spreading that debt out to others who are uninvolved 3rd parties

Unfortunately for people like you, attacks on the ACA, efforts to lift protections for people with pre-existing conditions and the Trump Administration's obsessive anti health care moves just push the country closer to universal health care and Medicare/Medicaid for all.

Who knows, the next president may declare a public health care crisis and divert awarded Pentagon funds to finance health care for all.

GOOD! Because veteran NBC News Anchor TOM BROKAW says his Cancer Treatments cost $10,000 a DAY.

Can't understand what everybody is so worried about.
