Junk health insurance is the new weapon being used to kill Obamacare (VIDEO)

[egbertowillies]

Donald Trump and the Republicans are using a back door, an ACA loophole to bring back junk health insurance policies. These insurance policies only work when you are not sick, providing you with a false sense of security. Here is what they are and why people are fooled into buying them.

1. Ah, return to the good old days. But a BETTER version, one where

not only can we purchase junk insurance but a brave new world where requiring previous conditions be covered may soon be declared UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

In fact, if the Republicans can accomplish that interim goal (until ALL government programs are declared unconstitutional), it'll also affect the 70% who get insurance through work. Right now poor embattled businesses can "only" deny coverage for 3 months (!) when people change jobs, but that'll probably be broken wide open. With a solid ultraconservative majority on the court, many may find themselves permanently without coverage for preexisting conditions.

A little breaking-in period before what comes next if we aren't able to stop them.

2. I've only heard a little bit of your show.

Have you talked much about PNHP or single-payer?
