They sound like my family. God forbid there be “socialized” healthcare that the “leeches” can benefit from, but also insurance sucks and doesn’t pay for anything and whoops now we have medical debt.
They don’t want their tax dollars to subsidize the care of anyone they think is less deserving than them, while they begrudgingly accept having to pay hundreds of dollars each month on an insurance plan that won’t even cover the care they need.
And they want to see every change introduced by Obamacare undone, so, have fun going back to insurance plans that can deny you coverage just because you have a preexisting condition that they don’t want to pay for.
Fun fact! The US is spending more on healthcare than it does on its military. By A LOT. The military gets around 4% of the federal budget, healthcare gets around 12%.
The US taxpayer pays MORE on healthcare in taxes than the the taxpayers in Switzerland or Norway!
Where does that money go, you ask? Why, to the pockets of the corpos owning private healthcare, of course!
Yep. Republicans like my family are still so focused on the idea of “welfare queens” and illegal immigrants who are sucking up their hard-earned taxpayer dollars, while completely blind to the fact that they are spending thousands in taxes and insurance premiums enriching corporate middlemen who provide little to nothing in return. So who are the real leeches?
