“This bill is a tactic to whip up fear of terrorists. Let me say this: I am not really that afraid of the type of terrorists this drill would have-I don't feel that threatened by them-I'm afraid of the right-leaning extremist elements in government that are gaining too much power and threatening the …”
“This just sounds like an excuse to to try and weaken the standing of the ACA/Obamacare by the extreme R's and an attempt to set a precedent for the SC to ignore legislation these same extreme R's don't like in the future (which will be to the detriment of most Americans). This needs to be stopped.”
“Unless the replacement is a single-payer, universal healthcare system (as found in every other wealthy nation in the world any many not so wealthy ones), LEAVE THE ACA ALONE. It's insane and sick how dead set a certain element in the government is on taking away something that has helped millions of…”
“I'd go further -Make them buy healthcare through the ACA just like the public too. That way, anything they vote to take away gets taken from them too. Seriously though, they're not doing their jobs and most of them are in the 1% so a few missed paychecks won't kill them. (And if it did, it wouldn't…”
“Getting kids an early exposure to STEM subjects is one key way American students might be able to stay globally competitive. From my own experience, kids at my college who went to schools that focused on STEM seem well prepared in those areas. In contrast, I happened to attend schools that focused …”
“So this isn't as bad as the American "Healthcare" Act that (thankfully) went down in flames recently. However, it's ridiculous to keep screwing around with American's healthcare like this. The majority of people like the ACA- work to *improve* it, not dismantle it. (Or just rename it to the original…”
“Repealing the ACA without a replacement makes no sense, especially if it removes coverage for preexisting conditions and the mandate for all to have coverage- doing so does *nothing* to help the American people. These mandates help 1/4 of the population get coverage and keep it affordable. Taking th…”
“While women should have an initial visit with their doctor before starting the pill, once they've found one that works for them, it is an unnecessary use of their time (and the doctor's time) to get a new prescription each year. (It would also save on insurance costs as it would be one less doctor's…”
“Allowing people time to recover from illness or to aid an ill family member without having to worry about finances or losing their job is something America would be well served by . It would mean one less stress while ill (leading to shorter recovery time) and make it less likely people will get co-…”
“I have a feeling this wouldn't be a thing if the last President had been Republican... Apparently the Left are the huge crybabies but the Right can't get over the fact that America's first Black president did a good job while in office and continues to be popular afterwards. This silly bill is all a…”
