We're Going To Fight For the ACA and Improve On It

[bkkyosemite]

paraphrasing....in other words I'm not like Bernie who wants to destroy it. I will improve on it. She keeps saying this and it is not true. It is a lie. Bernie has said many times that he would improve on the ACA.

2. Well what does that mean?

My son is going to take the tax penalty this year because he can't afford the premiums, he makes too much to be subsidized, and the deductibles are going through the roof.

I know other folks in this same position.

The ACA is going to implode.

Hillary is just as much "purple unicorns" as she claims Sanders is if she thinks the Repuglican Congress is going to change anything for the better in Obamacare.

So, her mantra of improving it is a delusion.

Better we think big, get ready for what we really need this time, and negotiate from the big idea instead of this incremental crap that is slowly bankrupting what is left of middle America.

I amgetting so tired of Hillary's "We Can't" negativism and defeatism.
We need a revitalized progressivism that dares to dream.

3. So tax payers will pay Sanders 2.2% increase in pay roll taxes and ACA monthly premiums?

... or , is this another Sanders pixie dust promise?

5. The 2.2% funding mechanism for Medicare for All...

...would only exist if such a program existed, which would negate the need for the ACA. It's my understanding that they aren't meant to be concurrent. But you know that, you just have to maintain your persona.

6. So Hillary is right? The ACA would go away because it wouldn't be funded? Also, I'm not the one

... claiming Sanders wouldn't do away with the ACA...

Sanders is

4. I've heard him say he would replace the ACA
