According to the CBO, of every 830 Americans per year who lack health insurance, 1 will die as a result. 28 million lack insurance with the ACA. So, almost 36,000 per year die under the ACA. 3000/month. 100/day. Many of whom are very likely children. 1/2

I’m not denying these stats. I’m fully on board with single payer.

And I’m fully on board with making sure you and yours are covered one way or the other. I just hate that people defend the ACA when it represents a very real handout to big business at the expense of the middle class and ill people.

But it also represents a set of standards insurance companies must follow. At this point, w/out single payer, it’s better than where we were before:

It’s better for your situation. And I don’t want you to think I’m discounting that, because your situation is a tenuous one, and you and yours are definitely *entitled* to healthcare.

I’m counting on voters to recognize the injustice of the ACA and step *outside* the partisan paradigm to *demand* an end to the nearly 3000 people dying every month due to greed.
@angeil, message me your address, and I’ll come by myself to hear you out.

Basically, I hope you guys are as dedicated to recognizing and addressing the plight of the less fortunate as you expect others to be about your own.

It’s not lost on me that we are the “fortunate” ones. I wouldnt be as vocal & active as I was if I thought otherwise

Right. But I’m talking about this: Democrats running in #CD39 are for the ACA. Only 1 even *mentions* universal healthcare, as far as I’m aware, & he’s a former insurance exec, so I wouldn’t count on honesty there.
So, will you vote to maintain what you have, or to help others?
