I pretty much disagree with Chaffetz on all political policy, but the thing is, what he is describing actually does happen. My wife witnesses on pretty much a daily basis, people showing up in the ER saying they can't afford health insurance and wanting prescriptions and services for "free"... Yet they can evidently afford things like multiple tattoos and the new iPhone 7 they are texting away on while she is trying to help them.

Sad but true.

When you can buy insurance for what a older iphone, or even a new one costs, let me know. Also, in this day and age, that phone is their only phone(no home service), and probably their only access to the internet, and much more that helps them in their daily lives, scheduling, school notices, and what have you.

Face it, lots of things that would have been considered luxuries 30 years ago are now almost necessities.

And while we're talking about "gaming the system", I bet all those doctors billing medicare for phony services adds up to a lot more in costs than people with iphones wanting free drugs from the ER.

You can GFY too. Maybe you are too challenged not to have read back the many political threads to see that, for the most part, I support the ACA. But at the same time I'm not OK with people gaming the system thus taking advantage of (effectively stealing from) those of us who play the game by the rules while seeing our premiums increase by double digits year after year.

So you're willing to throw the baby out with the bath water. Good to know.

Huh. Unseasonably mild winter, a warm spring, and potential federal funding to spend before the 2018 fiscal budget?

Totally doesn't explain the sudden bump in construction jobs. ;)

Also, it annoys me that in industry, like construction, the term "jobs created" is bandied about frequently. It's not like a magic wand was waived and 33,000 new construction positions were created. Most of those 33,000 jobs are likely seasonal workers being rehired for the summer.

Again with the lack of reading comprehension. Your little tirades are laughable and misguided since literally no one here is in favor of people gaming the system. The only one challenged here is you because you are reading things that just arent there.

We understand some will take advantage, some ALWAYS take advantage. There is no way to prevent it without causing harm to others. We choose to help the whole and risk it. Chaffetz would sooner screw over the whole group to make sure no one even tries. (because Chaffetz doesnt care about people ESPECIALLY poor people)

The only one who needs to read back is you. You wont, and that is fine but dont put words in our mouth mmkay. You and your ilk are why we are here anyways.

I laugh at all the poor people taking advantage and how much that costs relative to corporate welfare and the 600 billion dollar tax cut disguised as a Health Care Plan that Paul Ryan is pushing.

It's ****ing laughable.

Don't forget the 3 trillion disguised as the GWOT or the however many trillion we gave the banksters during World Heist 1*.

The rich use the poor to scare the middle class into giving up more of our money, security and freedom to the rich. Circle of Life!

* Because you know we'll be numbering them.
