Why do stupid liberals act like no one can afford health insurance, when no one could under Obama anyway?

    The people covered under Obamacare were overwhelming poor people, but the middle class couldn't, whereas upper class people could afford healthcare regardless.

    So your question is invalid, as middle class people (who vote overwhelming Republican) can't afford affordable healthcare, thanks in part to Democrats.

    I, like millions of people covered by an employee health insurance, am not suffering anything due to ACA. Since I retired and turned 65, I've had to be covered by Medicare, and Social security , a trust which I paid into for 40 years, takes care of that. Independent business people and those who cannot work have a different situation. They now can choose to be uninsured if they want and as they need medical care, pay full price. How is tRump helping THEM with that? But back to your question about "stupid liberals"- they will fare the same as STUPID CONSERVATIVES, with tRump's blessing.

    Interesting as the number of people with health insurance rose under the ACA and, in fact, registrations continue to rise at present since despite Trump's claims, the ACA is still in effect. The plan Trump backed would have seen up to 20,000,000 people lose insurance, allow insurance companies to exclude a significant number of conditions including many that are not classified as pre-existing, would have raised premiums up to 5 times higher for seniors. It would have offered a savings to the young however that was based on a claim free history, once you actually used the plan they proposed costs would begin to rise for the individual.

    As for rising costs related to the ACA, that was a "benefit" courtesy of the Republican Party and Trump's administration who played fast and hard with the payments to insurers causing them to raise rates as a precaution.
