DOHOHOH

It's all summed up here on this simple chart.

make it so i gotta pay money now because if i dont got healthcare i get a penalty. oh yeah. im unemployed and cant collect unemployment. fuck you democrats

>Joint Economic Comitee, Republican Staff.

Oh you!

Nothing, absolutely nothing.

Force you to pay a fine if you don't pay an insurance company. This is how the democrats punish evil insurance companies.

So if your doctor bills were less than $3500...or is it $4500... last year then you're basically being fucked. hard.

Kill babies.

make healthcare abit cheaper thats about it

make a lot of fucking money for people who already have a lot of fucking money

forces you to purchase health insurance from an evil insurance company that the democrats hate

It gives some people Canadian style care with American premiums and everyone has to pay for it. So in other words, you pay more, wait longer, and get less. Typical financial effects based operations. You stupid humans are being dominated on all fronts and there's nothing you can do about it.

This bill will give tons of money to insurance companies invest in them now you'll probably get a 70 to 100% profit in 5-10 years

Please, without the rhetoric?

Dependents can stay on parents' health insurance longer

No more denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions

No cancelling coverage when a patient gets sick

No annual or lifetime caps on payment for treatment

Expands Medicaid so more families can get health insurance

Sets up, in the future, large exchanges where millions can buy health insurance policies as a group, thus being able to get a lower rate from economies of scale.

Requires everyone to buy health insurance, provides subsidies to most people to make things cheaper.

According to CBO, shaves about $130 billion off the federal deficit over the next 10 years, and then more than a trillion off over the decade after that.

Pays for it all by cutting the weird Medicare Advantage plan, which basically pays insurance companies to insure people instead of Medicare (at about twice the cost), and by raising taxes on rich people very slightly.

Meh.

It forces you to have health insurance because if you don't and you go to the emergency room, you get a fucking huge hospital bill that you can't pay if you're poor, and the TAXPAYERS pay for it

the same people saying I DONT WANNA BE FORCED INTO INSURANCE are crying about having to pay for other people's healthcare, which is what they are doing to everyone else

the funny thing is that in 10 years, most doctors and pharmacies won't accept medicare or medicaid patients anymore. Those customers are served at a loss right now and it's getting worse.

So they say that an insurance company can't deny you for pre-existing conditions, but do they cap how much the insurance company premiums are? Will they just be able to charge the shit out of you?

I like how you outlined it without the use of sarcasm and rhetoric, like many others have been tempted to do. That said, I really don't see how any of this is controversial, with the exception of:
>Requires everyone to buy health insurance

>>396294
Well put.

>>395002
proliferate the nigger disease

>>396243
Finally someone else who read the bill

>>396243
Thank you, that was helpful and informative.

>Dependents can stay on parents' health insurance longer
Discourages kids from moving the fuck out and being productive members of society

>No more denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions
Imagine if car insurance companies couldn't deny you coverage (or charge you higher prices) for having 17 DUI's
>No cancelling coverage when a patient gets sick
This is bullshit really, didn't require this much legislation.
>No annual or lifetime caps on payment for treatment
Don't feel bad about getting countless un-necessary medical procedures... it's FREE! (doctors gonna get paid fo realz)


Sets up, in the future, large exchanges where millions can buy health insurance policies as a group, thus being able to get a lower rate from economies of scale.
>didn't require this legislation
Requires everyone to buy health insurance, provides subsidies to most people to make things cheaper.
>eliminates the freedom to choose not to pay through the nose because insurance companies still have to manage risk.
According to CBO, shaves about $130 billion off the federal deficit over the next 10 years, and then more than a trillion off over the decade after that.
>it would be the first entitlement program in the history of the US to save money

3 MORE VOTES UNTIL CHANGE COMES TO AMERICA
