Republicans removed Medicaid expansion and they are underfunding the risk corridors.
They are killing the ACA with a "thousands cuts" and then telling the public it's the sole fault of Obamacare itself.
I hate these liars.
They are killers...murderers.

(3,616 posts)It was Marco Rubio who introduced the amendment to a huge (must pass) budget bill that removed the promise to fund insurance companies if they were losing money due to taking in people with pre-existing conditions. There is a tax that is still being paid, but congress voted to stiff the insurance companies, and therefore they are pulling out of the exchanges in the ACA.
So all the while the republicans are saying that the ACA is collapsing, it is because of their own deeds.
I never see this point made by MSM when discussing the topic. Pisses me off.
