They get health care, we don't. That's the plan. It's always been the plan.
Repeal and go f🇺🇸ck yourself —GOP
They haven’t had a health plan in more than a decade. Trump has claimed since he came down the escalator he’d be releasing his health plan in “two weeks.” The plan is repeal Obamacare. That’s the only plan.
The Republican healthcare plan was Obamacare. That's what it was once it was clear something had going to change. The Dems let the Republicans basically gut and change whatever they wanted. The insurance industry wrote the damned thing.
That's why there's no other plan, and they never repeal it, we already have their plan.
Do you remember what the Trump administration promised to deliver two weeks ago?
That's why it works.
Yep they do. The lower the income, the more billionaire deductible you will pay while not receiving care.
The plan is to let people die in the streets if they can't afford them grotesquely inflated prices of the healthcare system.
That's part of it, they want that because then people will be so afraid of unemployment, they're take shit wages for unsafe work.
Been saying this for over a decade, all through Obama’s 8 years after he passed a republican health plan they had no republican plan to replace it.
Repeal and replace is a lie you have heard for almost a decade, why believe it now?
They've been trying to tell us they have this secret plan since the ACA passed in 2010. Fifteen years of swearing up and down that it's some great plan that will help everyone, maybe including poor people if they think it'll help convince anyone but definitely including insurance companies and pharmaceutical giants.
The problem is, the ACA was already their idea. The 2006 Massachusetts law that he proposed and signed into law as governor was an early version of Obamacare, including the Individual Mandate and a penalty for businesses that didn't provide insurance to their employees. It was a stopgap measure to overhaul the system so that patients wouldn't use the ER for health care and run up huge unpaid bills when they could just pay for the care from the correct provider; but unintentionally, it also got 98% of Massachusetts residents insured.
But by the time Romney started campaigning for president in 2012, the GOP had already started moving dramatically to the right, to the point where this lukewarm, milquetoast excuse for a solution was seen as radical. And since the GOP can't risk doing something that will reduce their voters' hardship (because paradoxically then they might stop voting for them), they are terrified of coming up with anything that might actually help.
And the Romney plan was based on the Republican counter offer when Bill Clinton was trying to get universal health care passed. Clinton rejected it as not good enough.
Trump literally got elected claiming to have concepts of a plan. No doubt the rubes believe them
Because they are lying
Just like the last time Trump was in office. "Repeal and replace" "With what?" "After we repeal, we'll tell you"
Concepts of a plan
Republicans have nothing beyond the argumentative skills of 5 year olds trying to avoid eating their vegetables
They had none in 2017 and don't have any now.
Finally, those Concepts of a Plan have been realized!
[X] Doubt
Spoiler alert… they don’t
They'll release it in two weeks.
Or at least, that's what they started promising in 2016.
Fantastic
Oooh oooh, I've seen this one!
...again?
The plan is "just die."
No, the plan is that you pay for insurance your whole life, and then just die owing large amounts of money so they can take everything you ever had away from your kids.
Their plan is the same as it ever was. Rich people can afford the best care. Everyone else can die. This plan is not super marketable so that is why they wont make this more transparent.
Concept of a plan.
For almost 20 years now
"You wouldn't know my health care plan. It lives in Canada."
Except even the Canadian system is better.
Not having a Healthcare plan is their plan.
Hint: not you
Their plan is to take it away so that you become forever indebted to shareholders the moment you get sick. They want to milk you for every red cent they can squeeze out of your miserable existence.
Everyone the plan is quite obvious! Embrace nurgle! Once we all follow American leadership to recieve his blessing and reach peak body like the plague father we will know true happiness.
Oh look, everybody, another nothingburger. Just like the last time they were in control.
Their plan: The poor should just die already.
Ooohhh I know this one!
This must be the same as that one they had like 7 years ago that would be ready in two weeks and would be the best healthcare plan ever?
And then crickets?
Just in case if anyone is still in doubt: there is no healthcare plan. Not beyond "get sick and become a slave or die"
Don't be eager. They'll tell you in about two weeks.
It’s. A. Concept.
Die.
That's it. That's the plan.
Remember when Republicans complained about the ACA for years, then got control and brought a healthcare plan to the table that was so bad John McCain famously voted it down? Then, instead of reworking it and trying again, they just gave the fuck up? Kind of like how they did with infrastructure before Biden stepped in and got that done immediately?
Is it the same as what they had in 2018?
Still coming, in two weeks, for sure. /s
Step one, you pay us
Step two, we shoot you in the crotch and call you a stupid poor
Because their plan is take away your healthcare plans and make you pay three times as much to get even less! And then, when it's time to need your plan, they are going to let them just drop you instead and/or delay any possible care until you die and they keep all the money you give them. Suckers!!!!
