        All anyone needs to know is that their representatives have lifetime govt healthcare, so they don't care if you die or go broke trying not to diepic.twitter.com/RF5czwE2A9

        I read this & it sounds like crap to me. Bottom line, removing protections 4 those w p/e conditions will still affect millions. Big biz is shedding permanent employees like cat hair. My field is almost exclusively contract b/c companies no longer want 2 provide benefits.

        Really NPR the only thing you could find false about what Democrats are saying is a discrepancy in a statistical number stated by Manchin!? The overriding fact is that -Yes- Republicans want to demolish healthcare protections and get rid of the Pre-existing conditions protection!

        This isn’t about health *care*, it’s about health *insurance*. Healthcare is complicated. Insurance doesn’t have to be.

        “A bill unveiled by several GOP senators in August would require insurers to offer coverage to people with pre-existing health conditions, but not require coverage of the conditions themselves.” So people w/pre-existing conditions can have ins. that doesn’t cover their illness.

        This is not complicated. Saying it is complicated is just providing cover for Republicans who have repeatedly for years tried to repeal the ACA and end its protections for preexisting coverage. This is easy and simple. R
