how dare you not go bankrupt for medical problems anyone could have! the fact u have a menu for your food instead of generic slop 2 is just communist. imagine how much money that costs that the ultra rich could pocket?!?
No, lol, it’s even worse. People now want the ACA and the Marketplace… just get rid of everything Obamacare! The state of information is truly scary…. not that it’s anything new I guess.
Let’s be clear – Republicans voted against it. Even though they failed to stop it, they did manage to remove the public option, and disallowed Medicare from negotiating prices with drug companies.
They also forced Medicaid expansion to be optional, followed by every GOP state refusing it, thereby denying millions of people from that care.
And yet people still vote for them. Absolutely mind-boggling.
Don’t worry. It will soon be replaced by the “concept of a plan”, which will include denial of coverage for preexisting conditions and other fun things. But real patriots don’t need doctors when horse paste suffices.
This was all under medi-cal so I walked out of there 3 days later without a bill because this is the closest we have to universal health care and now it’s being challenged
I’m posting this because I’m seeing a lot of social posts about how people with pre-existing conditions didn’t know the Affordable Care Act they’re on was Obamacare and now regret it
My wife and I, more so my wife pretty much lived in different hospital all spring and summer with our newborn. He’s happy and healthy now but even seeing this menu triggers some ptsd
St Lukes?
Most of them are voting against Obamacare and not ACA because of racist reasons
The conservatives don’t want their base to understand the ACA. They nicknamed it “Obamacare” so their base would automatically be resistant to something that helps them tremendously.
After this election it is clear to me now. Americans are stupid.
But you don’t understand that eggs were 50 cents more expensive! Now you can continue to pay more for grocery’s AND have no health coverage!
Congrats. It got me free insurance after being fired from my job so I can continue getting my medications and seeing my therapist. Seriously thanks, Obama.
Republicans: wait Obamacare is the ACA? But I need aca to pay my bills, I didn’t know that was the same thing I voted to get rid of
It’s actually scary how many people think the ACA and “Obamacare” are different. Sad truth is they think the ACA will remain but we will be rid of that dirty Obamacare finally! The power of the uneducated is just scary.
Saved my life in 2016 I’m forever grateful
Obamacare saved my life when I got a hole in my colon and almost died, like I went to the ER and got operated on within a couple hours.
So MAGAts ran on the Obamacare name not telling their idiots it was actually called the Affordable Care Act. This is also on their idiots for not knowing either but the Republicans know this and don’t care.
Because they don’t know that “Obamacare” and the ACA are the same thing
Because most people in America can’t read above a 6th grade level, which makes them – in my opinion – effectively illiterate
I have ACA and I’m just about to transition to Medicare. Over the summer I had a serious horseback riding accident and sliced off my right ear. The surgery to reattach sadly failed. The ambulance, trauma care, surgery and overnight in the hospital would have been $350K. My deductible was $850. I just had ear reconstruction surgery – all covered under the ACA – probably another $100K or more. This is after my cancer care in 2021.
It’s not hyperbole to say that ACA saves lives.
Quite a few people have apparently been very surprised that the ACA, which they said they liked, was Obamacare. They wanted Obamacare abolished but liked the ACA. They did not know these were the same thing.
As a Brit., i find it totally unbelievable that America voted for this. When Buffet was in UK he pleaded with us to never give up our NHS. as it will only make the drug companies richer than they already are. Our system is not perfect but I can sleep easy knowing that our health service the best system there is no matter what.
Who was that senator (?) who hysterically bashed ‘Obamacare’ in an interview and then went on to say that the ACA saved his wife’s life? Like he legit didn’t know they were the same thing….ahole
Yes but you see eggs and gas were expensive for a bit so…
Because they are ignorant. They didn’t understand that the ACA and Obamacare are the same thing
obamacare prevents me from killing myself. i get my mental health meds for free and i was hospitalized for suicidality at no cost
Holy shit I remember this menu! I thought it was specific to my hospital in California. I almost died from leukemia (which ACA allowed me to survive) and the pizza I had was the best-tasting thing I had ever experienced. In retrospect the quality wasn’t anything special, I just hadn’t had proper food in over a week at that point. I had a lot of the other options as well and basically everything else I picked was really good, I was impressed by the quality of food being offered where I was.
It’s too bad Trump wants to kill me and all other disabled people. Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So I agree with your sentiment. But this is a picture of a menu. And your title breaks the title rules.
Compassion is not a hallmark trait of American society.
My Trumper dad is vehemently against Obama care but said he doesn’t want to get rid of the Affordable Care Act. 😂😂😂 Trump people kill me.
Is there anything except politics left on this fucking sub, holy shit
I would pay money for the food here. This looks yummy. Agree, but the funniest part is LAMF idiots going “But how was I supposed to know that Obamacare WAS the ACA???????”
Could be better. It was definitely a step in the right direction. It just sucks for those that make right above the threshold for Medicaid and get crappy insurance from their employers.
When they broke it down into pieces they liked it but when you called it Obamacare it hit the Republican / Fox propaganda wall. Crazy world
Ok everyone. This is long-term care, not a regular visit hence the menu. I was checked up on and tested every 4 hours so this was a way to make me feel comfortable. I thank them because if I was in any other situation I’d want to die – stop 🛑 acting like this is a luxury thing it’s not I’d never want to be back here
literally imagine voting against someone getting healthcare and hospital food when they need it bestie like how does that make any sense fr
Free basic health care is a human right!
They don’t know that Obamacare and the aca are the same thing. They voted against Obama.
