Tax or health care reform?

Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) casted a pivotal vote over the summer, where she — along with Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME) and John McCain (R-AZ) — saved the Affordable Care Act (ACA) from being repealed. She didn’t just vote against repeal once; she voted against three different G.O.P. health bills and shot down another in September.

But on Tuesday, she said she supports legislation that most health experts say will undermine the current health law. In an op-ed in the Daily News-Miner, Murkowski said she supports Republican tax legislation that repeals the individual mandate, an ACA provision that requires people to have insurance or pay a tax penalty ($695 or 2.5 percent of income, whichever is more).

“I believe that the federal government should not force anyone to buy something they do not wish to buy in order to avoid being taxed,” wrote Murkowski. “That is the fundamental reason why I opposed the Affordable Care Act from its inception.” Repealing the individual mandate provides relief to those penalized for not purchasing unaffordable insurance, she added.

Okay Murkoswki, lets use your logic:

“I believe that the federal government should not force anyone to buy something they do not wish to buy in order to avoid being taxed,” wrote Murkowski. “That is the fundamental reason why I opposed the Affordable Care Act from its inception.” Repealing the individual mandate provides relief to those penalized for not purchasing unaffordable insurance, she added.


So it's just fine and dandy, that I and millions of others pay for your health care, which is taxed to help you sit in a senate office ($174,000 a year) to be a hypocrite and talk out of both sides of your mouth------------you really are dangerous, you really are.

Your as dangerous as the orange hair buffoon, breaking the law everyday, and you sit in your office trying to figure out how to be on a "DEATH PANEL"----------well your mission has succeeded, you have no empathy, just so long as you get a tax cut, and 13 million plus people / human beings have no health insurance, and the costs goes through the roof to pay for a tax cut------------your math doesn't work, you are robbing Peter to pay for Paul, and all of the Paul's and the Paulette's will make less in the long term, no wage increase to cover the costs. And yet mind you you sit in an office and let a sexual predator break the rule of law.
You use a twisted smoke and mirror logic to defend the undefendable logic, here chew on this fact on wages:



” Repealing the individual mandate provides relief to those penalized for not purchasing unaffordable insurance, she added.

So when Joe and his wife Joann go into a emergency room without any insurance, my state and local taxes are going to do exactly what, stay the same, will the hospital raise there rates to cover there cost, will the state pass that costs on, because the fire and police personnel coming to the home will have to be paid for that emergency service?
Oh, I forgot, when my state and local taxes go up, to cover the costs of the uninsured ------------------I can't write that deduction off...................remember--------------that's what you fucking support.............
