Look out for the sick, not insurers
When I read over what the Republicans were proposing for health care, the one thing that stuck with me was how “Trumpcare” assures health insurance companies that if the laws fails, the federal government will bail them out.
According to the architects of Obamacare, insurance companies hate uncertainty. I bet I know a woman with colon cancer who is not only uncertain of the outcome of her treatment but is also having to hold her breath while the jackals in our government rip apart her health care.
When Trumpcare fails — and it will, that’s its purpose — who is going to bail her out?
