      Send me my pacifiers big daddy. I need to save up so I can pay cash for my liver transplant.

      Too bad this money will go towards cars, drugs, and fast food, then in 5 years we will need to re-institute a national healthcare plan

    3. Oh, you mean a single payer system that guarantees everyone healthcare. Great idea!

    4. Oh yes I’d love to get $50 to help pay my $1500 premium as long as I never need significant healthcare so I don’t have preexisting conditions that exclude me from coverage.

      Won’t that money go straight to insurance companies with extra steps? Wtf is the point?

    6. You know what would help, make all health care non for profit, make all health insurance non for profit and tax millionaires and billionaires.

      Tell me he doesn’t understand real world day to day costs without telling me

    8. You mean they didn’t teach this guy economies of scale when his daddy bought his degree from Wharton?

      How about the Government keep it and just give us all Medicare instead…

      Honestly, they want you to pay for everything or die. Get it into your head. And it is NOT funny— Americans laugh about real shit too much and here we are with a president sending memes all day about putting us into war and whether we have healthcare. Fuck them all.

    11. Let’s wait and see how much he estimates year health insurance premiums for a family are.

      over/under $3200

    12. Lol

      Where does he think the payments paid directly to the people will go?

      Maybe to the uncaring health insurance companies?  

      That is the best case scenario.

      Second best is they save the direct payments and self-insure.

      Most likely?

      They lose the payments to online gambling, crypto scams, ozempic, lip filler

    13. Trump does not GAF about the healthcare issues of us plebes. He’s just laser focused on destroying every vestige of Obama’s legacy.

    14. That’s the idea they finally come up with? I thought he said he was gonna have that resolved within two weeks of him getting into office. The first time.

    15. Because it is so easy for individuals to negotiate with insurance companies. Wait….is he saying just pay for our surguries out of pocket? Who needs insurance??

      He proposed this last year. It didn’t go anywhere because he was offering up to $2000.00 a year for a family of four.

    17. Only works if people are told they will be turned away at the hospital ER if they don’t pay, which will never be the case. Might as well spend the money on something else.

    18. So I can give the money to bloated insurance companies, because if the Dems wouldn’t give us price controls, Reagan’s zombie bones won’t give us price controls either.

      It’s a good thing people are as dumb as he thinks they are and this shit works.

    19. Damn. Too bad conservatives did everything they could to kill single payer universal healthcare; so got stuck compromising.

    20. greasyspider on

      I don’t want to fucking deal with insurance companies when it comes to healthcare. No thanks

    21. Health care cannot work in a free market you idiots. You cannot shop around for hospitals in an emergency, you cannot choose whether or not to purchase chemotherapy. We only should be moving close to a single payer system

    22. So we’re all getting checks for 12k$+? that’s how much my insurance costs per year. 

      Ya, right.
