When sick people have no insurance, they don't seek care until they are verysick, but by then, it costs so much more. And, when people without insurance show up at a hospital, they can't be turned away. The hospital spreads that cost out for all of us.

Just a reminder. Trump can order, through the DOJ, the release of the Epstein Files anytime he wants. We don't need Congress to vote. So, regardless of what he says, clearly, he doesn't want to release the files.

We need to keep in mind, what we have seen so far are NOT from the Epstein Files. And by all accounts, those are worse!

They don't care about healthcare and would rather defund it so it dies. They'd rather provide tax breaks to their rich friends than help out the common man. Regular folks who are getting hit. These are folks who don't work for large corporations, who have to purchase their healthcare via the ACA.
Clearly ,they don't want to give Americans healthcare!
