Wait until the tRump supporters figure out ,,,,

how much insurance they can really buy for $4000 / year. My union pays almost $1800 / month for my insurance. Also it is funny how everybody has forgotten how much Health Insurance Premiums were increasing before ACA, mainly because of all the poor people getting they health care in ER's!

They will somehow blame this on the black guy and Trumpeters will believe it. Every word.

just as many.

We need to understand that killing the poor, especially Obama voters and black poor, IS the goal.

I know most of us cant go there yet, but we need to, that and only that will or might get us off our asses to actually do something.

When trump voters are harmed by trump, they will NOT blame him. The battered child always finds someone else to blame, it is part of the syndrome. They will blame us.

This cant be fixed. Well, it can but it is gonna take something we arent willing to do, I guess.

Starting with a general strike.

They will have to wait for Fox News or BreitScum to tell them they got shafted. In other words, most repukes will eat this shit sandwich with a smile on their dumb faces and thank their repug saviors for the extra serving of dookie.

And somehow the deplorables will figure out a way to blame PBO and then they will go back to going to the ER for care.

My yearly premium for our family of three is $15,864 with a $6000 per person deductible and $12,000 family deductible. It is the least expensive policy I could buy in my state. You can't buy insurance for $300 a month. I cannot believe what people do not know about how insurance works. I had the "pleasure" of being an insurance biller for a medical practice for 21 years. Insurance is organized crime.

Go hand in hand. The "twin serpents" of creeping usury. Why the Pope advocated for Jubilee. The current global monopoly game is crashing the whole system...

As long as the "Obama" name is erased and Trump makes a big show in signing whatever, I fear that the majority of the death cult that supports this administration will be just fine with that.

And why not? They think cozying up to Russia is a good thing. They loathe any concept of a "greater good," to the point that they would rather have their own healthcare hacksawed, rather than "pay for some lazy ________ (fill in the blank)."

As always, look no further than the Koch-generated hellscape that is Kansas, where they've been voting rightward for decades, while the infrastructure crumbles away and jobs leave in droves.

As I said-- "death cult."
