GOP - OBAMACARE is WELFARE

shaming people who are accepting subsidies...I tell them, "I am not ashamed of accepting subsidy to help with my healthcare costs..they are my portion of TRICKLE DOWN they've been promising for 30 yrs.

They are trying to shame people who accept ACA. Please Its not welfare, its the TRICKLE DOWN we've been promised.

Pride. Which supposedly goeth before a fall and is one of the 7 Deadly Sins and I thought they were so religious? Such Christians?

They want people who need help to have too much pride to take it. Whoah. Just sociopathic.
