From the Casper Star Tribune.
The Democratic bill to extend the credits failed.
Senate blocks Obamacare tax subsidy extension, all but ensuring spikes for Wyoming consumers: Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming called tax subsidy extension a “disaster” and lobbied for a Republican health savings account proposal that also failed.
So did a moronic Republic bill for health savings accounts. That was no sort of plan.
The evidence is too well established to ignore. A national health care system needs to be established and frankly it would not be that difficult. It'll be interesting to see if this brings it about, as the populist contingent that opposes it, including here in the state, is about to lose its insurance. This is, quite frankly, a disaster.
It's a disaster that the GOP hopes will kill off the AHCA and there really isn't any serious proposals to replace it. They want it dead, as it's "socialism", even though it isn't. The Health Savings Account concept was just pablum and everyone is well aware that it'd achieve nothing at all.
Which brings me back to this point. The difference between right wing populism and left wing populism is nearly non existent. The ox that will end up being gored here is that of the street level right wing populist, who can be, and in some instances was, left wing populist.
Speaking of average folks:
Also from the CST.
