BULLSHIT

Cruel, heartless Rethugs.

It is a straight-out MUGGING.

"Deficits don't matter" He meant when a gop was in the WH. They matter BIGLY when a democratic president is in office. Poor Orin Hatch having a meltdown. He was born "poor" so he says. The fact that he has lived high on the hog all these years should be a lesson to us all. The way to becoming a multi millionaire is get elected (gop) lie, cheat and follow the party line forever. Plus, take every dime you can get from the pharma industry. His son is a lobbyist for the pharma big wigs, so "used to be dirt poor Orin" gets the inside scoop on all things related to pharmacuticals. He is looking rough lately, why do these people stay in office long past their time? Surely he has enough $$$$ in the family coffers to retire comfortably.

There are one or two Republicans able to vote sanely. Here’s the list: Collins. Then Murkowski is sane on occasion. McCain is grumpy enough to resist social pressure when he wants. And then Flake and Corker aren’t subject to primary threats. And then maybe one other decides to resist madness for some odd reason.

An upshot health analyst, Ms. Sanger-Katz made an interesting point about how killing the individual mandate actually hurts those with incomes exceeding 400% of the federal poverty level. Below that level Obamacare subsidies limit health premiums to x% of income (9% comes to mind if I remember correctly). So when premiums go up the extra 10% per year from the sicker insurance pool caused by dumping the mandate those with subsidies don’t pay more - their tax subsidy increases to cover the hike. But if you don’t get subsidies, if you are single making more than 42,000 per year, or are a family of 4 making more than 93,000, then you actually have to pay the hike. In Alaska that means an extra 6000 per year (health care is freaky expensive in Alaska because a doctor can always work in Santa Rosa rather than in god forsaken Fairbanks where I went to high school and know is not fit for human life). So Murkowski has already expressed concern about this as has Collins.

I just don’t see it passing.
