ROFL

tldr:
Part 1: an executive order declaring Trumps support for a law that already exists.
Part 2: a request to Congress to pass legislation banning surprise medical bills, like those some patients get when they unknowingly get out of network care thats not covered by their insurance. Which is already on the books for the past 10 years.
Part 3: $200 discount card to defray the cost of prescription drugs for seniors.

Healthcare is a complicated topic because the government makes it one. They have the funds to give everyone full healthcare in the country but they instead choose to spend it on the military, paying aid to other countries and overall being shitty at managing the funds all together.

They could lower taxes for the people who need it the most and give us healthcare but they simply don't want to.

Maybe when people actually wake up to this fact then change will happen. Otherwise it will be impossible to change the system because it's already so rigged in Wall Street's/politicians favor.

The problem is American individualist culture. At least 25% of the country will actually have their mind melt at the idea of socializing medical costs because "I shouldn't have to pay for some guy with type 1 diabetes." America is the ultimate Fuck You Got Mine culture where psychopathy and callousness is heavily incentivized.

Lmfao

This is the big plan that's been ready to be unveiled "in a couple of weeks" for the past three months?

This is fucking hilarious

Like wow, $200 for prescriptions? Does this out of touch fat fucking waste of sperm know how many prescriptions seniors are on? That's nothing.

I suppose it's great if you only need $200 worth of medicine for your entire life. How long do people live for anyway, like 20 minutes?

If you protest, it's because you feel your voice isn't being heard. If you riot, it's because you feel your voice is being ignored.

Healthcare doesn't need to be complicated but this country is ass backwards.

When I lived in Japan and South Korea, it blows my mind how much better the healthcare was and how cheap it was too. An X-ray and a cast for my broken arm in South Korea at the time was only about $120 without insurance.

Oh yeah and they gave me medication for 4 weeks.
