donald trump was recently onabc's this week, and he went after chief justice roberts for the way he voted for the fournoble care act, when of course it went all the way tothe supreme court, and the supreme court voted that thefederal mandate was indeed constitutional. let's listen to what donaldtrump had to say about chief justice roberts, and you'll see whohe attacks during his answer.
you know a judge who is atotally underrated and outspoken is justice thomas. if you look at some of thejudges that we have, like on the supreme court, justice robertsended up being a nightmare for the conservatives. ted cruz was the one who reallywant to justice roberts to go on to the supreme court. did you know that? he was pushing him hard.
justice roberts gaveus obamacare. obamacare would have beenterminated twice if it weren't for justice roberts. justice roberts could have andshould have killed obama care. ted cruz is the one whowas promoting him. ted cruz and also jeb bush. but justice roberts was the manthat gave us, and remember he gave us obamacare, almostas much as obama himself. during the initial vote inthe supreme court regarding
ã± regarding the informal careact, justice roberts voted against it, and then laterchanged his vote. that was a big controversyamong conservatives, and remember, chief justice robertswas appointed by george w. bush, and everyone expectedhim to be the conservative justice that would throw theaffordable care act out, but it did not work that way. but understand that that attackwas not about the supreme court, it was about ted cruz.
i did some reading into johnroberts, because this seems like a stupid thing to say. yes, he sided with the liberalsin that specific case do not destroy a medicine acrossthe country, but that doesn't mean he's a liberal. and that vote, that was thesecond time that he had voted with the four liberals tomake a five ã± four vote. 2 times, and he is adisaster as a result. he is also the person who gaveus citizens united, and created
the mess of the campaign financesystem that we have today. has he voted every time how acrazed conservative would want? no. that shows that he at least hadsomething like a heart or brain inside of him, but he is verymuch a conservative justice. when he voted for the aca, itallowed mexicans to rate white women, and muslims also to be raping and killing, ted cruz. i'm surprised that made it tothe senate, that's a weird one.
we should not be in favor ofactivist judges, regardless of what your politicalideology is. i want judges to take a look atour constitution and our laws and make rulings based on that. i don't want liberals making ã± idon't want liberal judges making state ã± making decisions based on their ideology, and i don'twant conservatives doing that either. i hate that we are forced to buythrough private insurers,
but the way that they will andthat, in my opinion, made sense. the supreme courtruling made sense. publicans are angry that theydid not repeal obamacare, sorry, i wish we had somechange when it comes to health insurance in the country. at least they're not allowed todeny you coverage if you have a pre-existing condition. there are some good things thatcame out of it, although i hate the federal mandate.
i don't like the idea of itnecessarily, but i think we mortal like the idea of itbecause we are being forced to buy from private insurance. there is a downside to noteverybody being in the system, and we talked often about therenot being cost controls, that is one of the very limitedkosovo that we have, people not going to emergency rooms andbeing charged far more that then goes to the taxpayerbecause they can't pay for it. it sucks, but it does have goodoutcomes to some extent.
but if that is the only costcontrol you have in place, forcing americans to buy fromprivate insurance, then insurance coming or going tocontinue what they had been doing over the last few years,they will keep raising the gradients, and keep covering less and less of what you need,which i have experienced firsthand. yes, the informal care actachieves some good things, but there is still a major problemit comes to cost control,
especially when you force peopleto buy from private insurance. i think when bernie sandersbecomes president it will be public option. you can't force someone to buyfrom a private company, but you can't force them to havegovernment coverage. i dread having to go to thedoctor, because you just never know what you aregoing to charge. i literally went in because myankle was hurting, so i went to my foot doctor at cedars ã±
he gets paid every time hementions that name. been great foot and ankleclinic over there. i get the foot inserts, wherethey make a mold of your foot, i knew you once. from getting new ones made,they don't pay for it. they send me a thing, where didthis injury happen, who should we go after? it is not an injury,my ankle hurts. did happen at work?
did you get injured at home? it is not an injury! it is every step i've takenover the last six years, because that is how thehuman body works. they would rather pay someoneto fill out a paper, and put it in an envelope and sendit to my house, have my mailman bring it, to askme how was injured. all this bull shit,just pay for it. and pay for it because i'vebeen paying you every
month, and doing everything i'msupposed to do, and you are still not getting thecoverage i need. text by the way, him having abad ankle, if it does not get fixed, then potentially losingwork, those sorts of things can cause lower productivity andhurt the output of a business. it matters that we fixthese things. and that's not a scandal,americans are still paying twice as much for worse healthcare than the rest of the world. that to be the headline on thenew york times every day.
americans still paying twice asmuch for shittier outcomes in healthcare.
this is me, and this is my sister, annie she’s 28, mom to two cats, freelance designer and part-time grad student there’s just something about freelancing. i feel a lot of creative freedom she’s also had had chronic back pain, neck pain, migraines for as long as she can remember she health insurance through obamacare, and without it, there’s no way she’d be able to affordall her doctors’ appointments and medications and because she doesn’t have to depend onan employer for insurance, she’s able to
work for herself the flexibility works really well with being able to make my appointments around my work schedule on election night, my first thought was, "what does this mean for my sister?" donald trump, elected president of the united states and for the 22 million other people who get their health insurance through obamacare “today, after over a year of debate, health insurance reform becomes law in theunited states of americaâ€
“we’re gonna try and repeal this†“there’s only one way to fix obamacare, and that’s a full repeal†“can we replace this law, completely, in the next presidency, in the next congress. that is our goal, and the answer is yes wecan.†"when we win on november 8, we will be able to immediately repeal and replace obamacare†obamacare is a big law, with lots of different parts
and there are some parts that trump and republicansin congress say they want to keep. for example: before obamacare, companies couldrefuse to sell insurance to people with lots of health problems. obamacare says they can’t do that anymore,and trump and the republicans say they want to keep it that way. the problem is, this piece of the law thatthey like only works because of another piece of thelaw that they don’t like...a piece they’ve promised to get rid of that’s the part of the law that says youhave to have health insurance, or pay a fine.
for health insurance to be affordable, youneed a lot of healthy people to sign up for every one sick personthat’s because health insurance is worth more to sick people, and they’ll pay morefor it, which pushes up premiums for everyone. the healthy people in the pool help keep thosecosts down. if trump and the republicans get rid of theindividual mandate, which they say they will, a bunch of healthy people are going to stop buying insurance, premiumsgo up, more healthy people leave until all that’s left are sick people whoare really expensive to cover. without a bunch of healthy people to offsetthat cost, insurance companies would pull
out of the marketplace we know this because in some places, it was already happening before the election. too many healthy people were choosing thefine over health insurance as a result, states like alabamaand oklahoma only have one insurance plan on the market--and without competition, premiumsshot up last year. if trump and the republicans get rid of theindividual mandate, we’ll likely see this happen in other states. like texas, where my sister lives
so, what might her life look like under the republican replacement for obamacare? right now, obamacare makes it illegal forinsurance companies to charge her more just because she has health problems.under paul ryan’s plan, that changes. insurance companies would be allowed to chargeher more if she ever let her coverage lapse. instead of forcing insurance companies tooffer affordable plans to people like my sister, paul ryan’s plan would fund “high-riskpools,†insurance plans specifically for people with lots of health problems, but wedon’t know exactly who would be eligible for them.
these pools were around before obamacare--and without healthy people to balance the sickpeople, these plans end up being about twice as expensive for participants. paul ryan’s plan does call for refundabletax credits to help offset those costs. congressional republicans have tried gettingrid of the individual mandate before. but those votes were largely symbolicbut it’s real now. my sister has built a life for herself where she can takeprofessional risks go back to school , be her own boss, and not have to rely on an employer for health insurance.
now, she and 22 million others are askinghow long that will last.
