Nah, they just garbled some bullshit in committee and told their aides to write it down. They haven't read what their aides wrote, and if they have, they don't remember what they asked for or the aides had no hope of translating what they thought they said.

You might want to bring a chair and some snacks.

Wouldn't it be great to expose the names of the people that actually wrote the bill?I'm sure if there was a substantial cash reward for anyone who named the writers of the bill (Senators on average aren't anywhere near smart enough to actually write up a bill) that within a few hours the writer's would have their names and faces splashed across the net! Think of the crowds of PO 'ed folks and the press waiting around at their office's and homes to interview these scumbuckets!

they could of made the ACA better but they are vile scum so of course they have to make it worse - worse is the new best in alt fact land where corporations know how to regulate themselves, would never take advantage of us, and generously profit share with the country that let them hoard the wealth of a nation

What is horrifying is that none of these bastards can see any need to make it better for the public. Sure is plenty for the 1% ers and insurance companies and sadistic teabaggers but nothing for people who need a doctor they can afford.

Anybody still need proof that God is dead?

Don't forget the Mercers! Also, no need for "spy," they simply had their Russian handlers do it.

The most important thing, and I wish we could all shout it to the rooftops, is that most people truly think this only affects "People on Obamacare," which is some vague group of freeloaders. But ALL OF US, all 250 million Americans with private health insurance, are going to be disastrously affected. We only have things like no denials for pre-existing conditions, no lifetime cap, mental health and substance recovery care, decent deductibles, full 100% coverage after a reasonable minimum, our kids covered to age 26, because of and since the ACA. These will be taken away from ALL OF US.
