Of course this may seem minor in the face of the many ways that common Americans will fare regarding HC insurance, tax scams (cleverly labeled, :tax cuts for the middle class) and consumer protections.
The repealing of most of what Obama has put in place regarding the welfare of common Americans versus the interests of big corporations and conglomerates, is little more than a jealous zeal by Trump to up-end anything that Obama did....regardless if such repealing screws over even his own voting base........Here's one example:
The Trump administration is scraping the proposed rule that requires airlines companies and ticket agencies to be up-front about the price of “optional” services, such as the price of checking bags, according to the federal Department of Transportation.
The DOT said this week it is withdrawing the proposed regulation along with a plan that forces airlines to reveal how much money they make from charging fees.
“Unbelievable. Pulling the plug on rules that would ensure airlines are open and honest about bag fees and other charges is about as anti-consumer as it gets,” tweeted Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.). “The Trump Admin’s reckless reversal is a gift for the airlines’ bottom line — and a slap in the face for travelers who deserve clarity when buying a ticket.
