That is correct. Those redominantly red states will fuck their own out of coverage assistance while still assisting those in the states that did set up exchanges - BRILLIANT!

Since it no doubt puts healthcare decisions back into the hands of insurance company underwriters, I'll go with "yes".

My oldest also too did it. It did take him some time since he isn't all that savvy regarding coverages, options, etc. and the shear volume of options (NJ) was pretty overwhelming. But with Mrs CT's help, he was able to extricate himself from the wringer in a couple of hours.

Yes, you lost your overpriced insurance policy that evaporated if you actually needed to use it, but fear not, the GOP will make sure your new policy is as insanely expensive as it is completely useless.

"It would be unfair to allow families to lose their coverage,..."

This will give all ya'll losing coverage time to either move to Canada or die, so our conscience will be clear, the trio added.

As someone who's employment has caused rate increases and Dr. changes almost every damn time it's up for renewal, the hyperventilating over increases and any changes that were routine before ACA is just laughable.Insurance costs have apparently NEVER gone up for GOTP members before now.It's a con-spiracy I tells ya!

I don't think BoehnerCare can fix anything that doesn't require a little blue pill.

Snark aside, I suspect Congress and R Govs are starting to feel the heat from millions being kicked off coverage. Besides those covered, I can't imagine that the insurance companies are all that thrilled with losing clients.

I just don't want to share a bathroom with a trans-ex-leper.

And Hospitals who have calculated for more insured and far less unpaid emergency room visits. Savings that benefit everyone.
