    Correct me if I'm wrong (and I may be) but I've been told unequivocally by govt. officials under several admins that lowest income kids (& adults, too) get taxpayer funded health care via Medicaid: doesn't change pre-post Obamacare or under whatever GOP has in mind.https://twitter.com/RepJoeKennedy/status/942892360211496971 …

        And correct me, because I'm not too bright, but how does ending the mandate end or force a reported 13 million people (media reports) off of healthcare. It simply means, or would seem to mean, that they're not forced to pay for coverage or face egregious penalties for choice.

        I never bought health insurance and didn’t die . I was very burdened by paying a penalty for being responsible for my own care. So why will so many people die if the mandate is rescinded?

        No child in US goes without medical care. When they don't meet the Medicaid threshold, which is low, there are hospitals sponsored by Shriners or St Jude's to pick up. I am mom to disabled young adult and a social worker. This is a Trojan horse!
