What will low income people do for healthcare if they lose their Obamacare?

Here is a suggestion to answer the question.

"The 14194 clinics in this database offer medical services (some may also offer dental services) and are free, low-cost, low-cost with a sliding scale based on income, or offer some type of financial assistance. If you're under or uninsured, and looking for a nearby free clinic, sliding scale clinic, or low-cost clinic, where you and/or your family can go for lost cost medical care, NeedyMeds can help. Please note that the clinics listed are not necessarily free.

For additional information and appointments contact the clinic directly.

For a description of which clinics we include on our website and what type of information we provide on each clinic, visit our Free/Low-Cost/Sliding Scale Clinics page."

Can we point out that every individual in America, whether legal or otherwise, has had healthcare- by federal law- since it was mandated by the most successful President in the last hundred years.

"The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA)[1] is an act of the United States Congress, passed in 1986 as part of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA). It requires hospital Emergency Departments that accept payments from Medicare to provide an appropriate medical screening examination (MSE) to individuals seeking treatment for a medical condition, regardless of citizenship, legal status, or ability to pay."
Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act - Wikipedia
Here you go again. Being so stupid to think running to the ER is healthcare. It is not. It is a treatment. for a condition.
What if you make $30K with a family? Would you quality for free csare at the ER.

Do you think anyone can stop it & say " I ain't paying" & get a colonoscopy?

"Being so stupid to think running to the ER is healthcare. It is not. It is a treatment. for a condition."


Drum roll!!!!


We have a winner in the category of "Most Confused Farrago and/or Word Salad!!!"



A note to the winner.....in the future, try to keep your posts to the English language.

Every aspect of healthcare is based on the amelioration of medical conditions.

Unfortunately
, there is no known amelioration for your condition....outside of reincarnation.
 
The folks who want the "freedom" to pay "their own way" don't realize that, in that system, they're also paying for those who can't, in the form of taxes, higher premiums and higher costs.

Why is this so difficult to understand?

Everyone understands it.

Unless I've missed something, we do not live in a socialist country. Nor have we amended our Constitution to permit Government (the taxpayers) to pay for healthcare for all.

Hence, we have the observable phenomena that :

People with money tend to eat better than people without money;

They tend to have nicer clothes;

They tend to live in safer, more posh places;

They tend to send their kids to better schools (all the way through college), whether public or private;

They get better healthcare.

To the extent that healthcare is a high priority, people who are "poor" have to seek out whatever resources are available and exploit them to the extent necessary.

But on the whole, people with resources will always get better healthcare than people without resources. AND THAT EVEN HAPPENS IN COUNTRIES WHERE THEY HAVE SOCIALIZED MEDICINE.

So if you don't mind, stop telling me that I am financially responsible to see to it that every poor bastard in this country has "adequate" health care. If you think the Constitution needs changing, and if enough people agree with you to get it done, then I will happily pay my share. But until that happens STFU. Ain't my problem.

Funny Chit. We are supposed to be an advanced society where we take care of the old, poor, & sick people.

You selfish fucks should pack up your shit & move to some third world country where people starve & die in the streets while you PRETEND that you are soooooo far above them.

Funny how I hear your crock from people pretending to be Christian.

You right whiners keep telling me this is a Christian country. Well then act like it. Quit your constant ewhining.

I bet you have received some government benefits yourself.

Let's take that huge leap of imagination and picture you with an actual education.

You might comprehend the choices, and not the comic book version of life.

Here's a treatise you haven't read: Tocqueville.


Alexis de Tocqueville, writing “Democracy in America” in the 1830’s, described “an immense, tutelary power, which takes sole charge of assuring their enjoyment and of watching over their fate.”

As he predicted, this power is “absolute, attentive to detail, regular, provident, and gentle,” and it “works willingly for their happiness, but it wishes to be the only agent and the sole arbiter of that happiness. It provides for their security, foresees and supplies their needs, guides them in their principal affairs, directs their industry, regulates their testaments, divides their inheritances.”

It is entirely proper to ask, as he asked, whether it can “relieve them entirely of the trouble of thinking and of the effort associated with living.”


Imbeciles like you mirror the view of Franklin Roosevelt and his condottieri....

The attitude of the FDR government can be seen in these words of A.B. “Happy” Chandler, a former Kentucky governor:
“[A]ll of us owe the government; we owe it for everything we have—and that is the basis of obligation—and the government can take everything we have if the government needs it. . . . The government can assert its right to have all the taxes it needs for any purpose, either now or at any time in the future.”

There is nothing Christian about socialism.
 
They will get sick, they will die, and the Alt Right will yell "yay".
Pretty much the way it is with obamacare, $7500 deductible. Pretty much a death sentence for most.
There are options on the exchanges. If you were so stupid to choose a plan with 7500 deductible, then that is your stupidity.

There are plans with deductibles of $500 - $1000.

When will you quit lying about the ACA?

Yes....obamacare.....healthcare on paper....you have health insurance, you just can't afford to get actual medical treatment...and the left acts as if getting rid of that is horrible....

Why not, because your state has not expanded Medicaid?


Medicaid is the worst delivery system for healthcare...the government tells doctors they won't pay the whole bill....and then doctors stop taking those patients....government in action again....

Actually, Medicaid is very cost-effective. And if price-gouging doctors won't accept Medicaid patients, they'll likely change their minds when we have single-payer (Medicaid for all).

What Paul Ryan, Trump & nearly every Republican does not get is that Medicaid was expanded because it was cheaper to put these people on Medicaid than to nearly just buy them insurance.

When Trump/Ryan Care throws these people off of this expanded Medicaid, it will cost them more to help them buy insurance.

Republicans can't do shit unless a corporation somewhere makes money.

If that is the case fire the Congress & Executive branch & we will just vote on which corporation will run America. Republicans would be thrilled.

A lesson in religion???

Sure....I never mind teaching socialist dunces like you: take notes-

1. So.....socialism endorsed in the Bible????

Not hardly.

An accurate understanding of the Bible requires the distinction between 'redistribution' and 'generosity.'

"Some people conclude from these verses that the Bible supports government-enforced wealth redistribution. But what these verses really show is that the Bible advocates generosity.

These are two very different concepts.
Generosity springs from free will....not force, coercion, or threats.


The motivation to give and share originates in compassion, as 1 John 3:17 indicates—but there is choice involved.

With socialism, it is the opposite.
Redistribution of wealth is always by force of government. The government simply uses its overwhelming power to take what it thinks is “fair” from the “givers.” Is God a Socialist?

Generosity is based on choice....on free will....the cornerstone of Judeo-Christian tradition.
Not so with any of these six: Socialism, Liberalism, Communism, et al


2. Coercion, forced 'giving,' .....governmental theft.....is hardly the basis for charity.
Religion...the Judeo-Christian ones, at least, are based on free will.....not submission.

A principle of the Bible is that there are blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. God is not forcing people to obey His law. Blessings are the natural result of obeying His laws and principles. Generosity and sharing with those in need are biblical commands.

.... under God’s system...it is up to the giver to decide to give and how much he or she can afford to give, and, in many cases, whether he or she will give at all! God allows free choice. In fact, free will is essential to true Christianity.


Had God wanted to create robots that flawlessly keep His law, He could have. If He wanted to use the overwhelming force of government to impose His will on people, He could have. But God is concerned about people developing character, and this only happens through free choice." Is God a Socialist?




3. Two thousand years ago, Jesus taught the principle of free-market capitalism in the parable of the talents.


Matthew 25:14-30English Standard Version
The Parable of the Talents
14
“For it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants[a]and entrusted to them his property. 15 To one he gave five talents,[b] to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away. 16 He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he made five talents more. 17 So also he who had the two talents made two talents more. 18 But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the ground and hid his master's money.

19 Now after a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 20 And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me five talents; here I have made five talents more.’ 21 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant.[c] You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’

22 And he also who had the two talents came forward, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me two talents; here I have made two talents more.’23 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’

24 He also who had received the one talent came forward, saying, ‘Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you scattered no seed, 25 so I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is yours.’ 26 But his master answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I scattered no seed? 27 Then you ought to have invested my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received what was my own with interest. 28 So take the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents.



29 For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And cast the worthless servant into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’





Bottom line: there is no religious basis for socialism in any form. Any such suggestion is merely an attempt by one of the shameful six...
....communism, socialism, Liberalism, Nazism, Progressivism, or Fascism,...

...to cloak itself in the rectitude of the Bible.

It requires hospital Emergency Departments that accept payments from Medicare to provide an appropriate medical screening examination (MSE) to individuals seeking treatment for a medical condition, regardless of citizenship, legal status, or ability to pay."

Here you go again. Being so stupid to think running to the ER is healthcare. It is not. It is a treatment. for a condition.
What if you make $30K with a family? Would you quality for free csare at the ER.

Do you think anyone can stop it & say " I ain't paying" & get a colonoscopy?

Drum roll!!!!


We have a winner in the category of "Most Confused Farrago and/or Word Salad!!!"



A note to the winner.....in the future, try to keep your posts to the English language.

Every aspect of healthcare is based on the amelioration of medical conditions.

Unfortunately
, there is no known amelioration for your condition....outside of reincarnation.

He is right, its a one time treatment for a condition or accident.
Unless I've missed something, we do not live in a socialist country. Nor have we amended our Constitution to permit Government (the taxpayers) to pay for healthcare for all.

Hence, we have the observable phenomena that :

People with money tend to eat better than people without money;

They tend to have nicer clothes;

They tend to live in safer, more posh places;

They tend to send their kids to better schools (all the way through college), whether public or private;

They get better healthcare.

To the extent that healthcare is a high priority, people who are "poor" have to seek out whatever resources are available and exploit them to the extent necessary.

But on the whole, people with resources will always get better healthcare than people without resources. AND THAT EVEN HAPPENS IN COUNTRIES WHERE THEY HAVE SOCIALIZED MEDICINE.

So if you don't mind, stop telling me that I am financially responsible to see to it that every poor bastard in this country has "adequate" health care. If you think the Constitution needs changing, and if enough people agree with you to get it done, then I will happily pay my share. But until that happens STFU. Ain't my problem.

Funny Chit. We are supposed to be an advanced society where we take care of the old, poor, & sick people.

You selfish fucks should pack up your shit & move to some third world country where people starve & die in the streets while you PRETEND that you are soooooo far above them.

Funny how I hear your crock from people pretending to be Christian.

You right whiners keep telling me this is a Christian country. Well then act like it. Quit your constant ewhining.

I bet you have received some government benefits yourself.



Let's take that huge leap of imagination and picture you with an actual education.

You might comprehend the choices, and not the comic book version of life.

Here's a treatise you haven't read: Tocqueville.


Alexis de Tocqueville, writing “Democracy in America” in the 1830’s, described “an immense, tutelary power, which takes sole charge of assuring their enjoyment and of watching over their fate.”

As he predicted, this power is “absolute, attentive to detail, regular, provident, and gentle,” and it “works willingly for their happiness, but it wishes to be the only agent and the sole arbiter of that happiness. It provides for their security, foresees and supplies their needs, guides them in their principal affairs, directs their industry, regulates their testaments, divides their inheritances.”

It is entirely proper to ask, as he asked, whether it can “relieve them entirely of the trouble of thinking and of the effort associated with living.”


Imbeciles like you mirror the view of Franklin Roosevelt and his condottieri....

The attitude of the FDR government can be seen in these words of A.B. “Happy” Chandler, a former Kentucky governor:
“[A]ll of us owe the government; we owe it for everything we have—and that is the basis of obligation—and the government can take everything we have if the government needs it. . . . The government can assert its right to have all the taxes it needs for any purpose, either now or at any time in the future.”
From a speech delivered on the Senate floor
May 14, 1943
Happy Chandler’s dangerous statism


There is nothing Christian about socialism.
So, you trash your Christian values if you think it means socialism?



The Bible does not endorse socialism.
It is a fabrication used to persuade the most stupid among us to turn over their free will to big government.
Raise your paw.

Thanks be to God for giving Obama the insight to not trust health insurance companies anymore to do the right thing. The ACA is a gift from God to the median income,working poor and disabled and a slap in the face to the greedy for the sin of being so greedy.

Maybe looking at it that way might help you to understand.
