Not Enough GOP Legislators Get A Fatal But Treatable Disease. If They Did They Would Change.

[TheMastersNemesis]

If any of these guys got sick with a fatal expensive life threatening disease they would change their tune. The ones that do get sick sure want all the most modern expensive care when they do. Yet they tell others to die of the same maladies.

1. They have their own cadilac plans provided to them for life

so they probably don't give a damn either way. One thing I doubt anyone on either side of this debate would argue against is getting rid of that shit and putting them in the same system they have created for us (aside from legislators that is).

3. They used to be on the

federal employee system, and only got it for life if they were eligible (had enough years working for the federal govt for retirement benefits).

The R's forced them onto the exchanges during the passage of the ACA, where they still are now. The R's are now trying to change it back (its in the house passed plan) but hasn't happened yet.

4. I think it's great they are on the exchanges

but if they are getting a gold level plan and having it mostly subsidized then they aren't really feeling the same pain that I am.

2. It would have to be an uninsured/underinsured child over 25

Then MAYBE?

5. Not enough. (n/t)
