But the facts are, and always were, that this was never an issue. At all.
When a leftwinger rolls out this excuse, you know he's just citing Obama talking points. And I hear it constantly from my liberal friends. About how getting people on the government dole somehow saves money.
The lunacy of it is that uncompensated care, which includes just ordinary insured people who didn't pay their 20% and/or deductibles, NEVER came close to costing what the ACA does. And never will.
This was typical of the Obamacare propaganda machine of 2009 (which included Elizabeth Warren's bogus "Harvard Study as well as other out-and-out lies, like the bullshit that ACA would save money, result in better health care, and of course, the Liar of the Year's Lie of the Year, that if you like your doctor or your insurance, you could keep it).
Lies, lies, and more lies.
But the end does justify the means, right? |
