        Explains why CBO said SS payments drop $3Bn with TrumpRyanCare (tho plan doesn't change SS). Claimants die early.

        If enacted, I think number will be much greater, even on 100k income, 14k premium + 401k svgs+ kid’s college, etc = undoable.

        If you're wealthy I feel incentive to try and make it to Medicare and pocket that $$$ is strong. Have cash backup.

        30% premium up charge when you regain ins is a disincentive to keep coverage. Save & pay upcharge when u need it.

        Getting a condition could put you in high risk pool & raise rates further, but even then a year pocketed might exceed.

        I've never been uninsured + good health. 50+ yrs of premiums paid by me or parents. Shouldn't that get some credit?

        .@Atul_Gawande No problem. All they need to do is sell their iPhones and decide they want insurance. Republicans think "want"="can afford."

        @aafpprez CBO said ACA@would cost $100B/10 years. It cost $1.2 T over three years and left 25 M w/o ins.
