Trump on Healthcare: Take two aspirins

and STFU, dammit! Aspirin is cheap, so if you don't work hard enough to earn enough money to pay for proper health insurance, it's your own damned fault. Take your freaking Aspirins and stop whining! If you need something stronger than that, you can get it right outside your local convenience store.

Their customers are gonna be taken off the dole, don't you know?

All of a sudden the pharmaceuticals will be screaming bloody murder because their high-profit drugs won't have any takers. You know they won't like that one bit. Big Pharma has financed most of these GOP Congress-critters for the last 50 years. The list of pre-existing conditions that allows the insurance companies to exclude us is ridiculous. (Basically we all have something - we're all excluded.)

So long Middle Class!

The retail stores are already going under now that the middle class can't support them any more.
This AHCA is just one more nail, or actually it's several nails.

The Republicans may actually delay all of this health care change until after the 2018 election. If that happens, ordinary people aren't going to know how it will affect them. Things will appear to be going along normally. We're going to have to take the message to them. It's not going to be easy.
