Instead of terminating the Affordable Care Act, former President Donald Trump is now promising to make it āmuch better, stronger and far less expensiveā if he wins the presidential election in November.
āIām not running to terminate the ACA as crooked Joe Biden says all over the place,ā Trump said in a video posted to Truth Social on Thursday, echoing a message he posted last month. āWeāre going to make the ACA much better than it is right now and much less
Trump is now making many promises to improve the Affordable Care Act, but once again he has not said much about how he would actually accomplish that goal. And it could prove even harder since the Biden administration has reversed many of his actions and the law has become even more popular since Trump left the White House. A record 45 million people now have coverage through the Obamacare exchanges or Medicaid expansion, two central components of the law, according to the Biden administration.
It is well known that private industries are able to get laws passed in their favorite.

Over One-Third of Congressional Members Held Significant Health Care-Related Financial Assets
Due to their role in shaping health care policy, lawmakers should divest from assets while in office, Penn Medicine
PHILADELPHIAā Revelations that some members of Congress, including members of key health care committees, hold substantial personal investments in the health care industry have raised concerns about lawmakersā financial conflicts of interest and their potential impact on health care legislation and oversight. Now, a new study shows that over a third of all members of Congress held health care-related assets with a median total value per member of over $43,000 between 2004 and 2014.
Using personal financial disclosures for members of the House and Senate over that 10-year period, researchers found that while members of health care-focused committees and subcommittees in the House and Senate held health care-related assets at the same rate as other members of Congress, multiple members of these committees and subcommittees held hundreds of thousands of dollars of health care-related assets during their committee service.
āAll members of Congress have the opportunity to vote on health care policy that impacts the lives of all Americans,ā said lead author Matthew McCoy, PhD, an assistant professor of Medical Ethics and Health Policy. āWe should hold members of Congress to a higher standard and expect that they divest from assets in industries directly affected by their committee work to preserve the integrity of their policy-making.ā
At the start of the sample period in 2004 across both chambers, a higher percentage of Republicans than Democrats held health care-related assets. However, party differences diminished over time. In 2014, there was little difference in health-care related asset holding by party in the House.
āGiven that making policy changes in the health care industry could impact any investments a member has, their voting could be biased toward their own financial gain,ā added senior author Genevieve Kanter, PhD, an assistant professor of General Internal Medicine and Medical Ethics and Health Policy. āIn order to understand the significance of these financial holdings and the importance of disclosures, there needs to be more research into how these financial assets actually influence policymaking.ā
@SmallPaul Another great reason to vote for Orange Man Badā¦ In Novemberā¦ The US Medical industry is appallingā¦ Itās almost as bad as the Heath Industry in the UKā¦
Affordable health care is a major issue for aging populations in the western world and In both countries itās a case of āhow healthy can you afford to beā¦ā
Australia has one of the best health systems in the worldā¦ Medical care is built into our taxesā¦ And is FREE for allā¦ Even Specialist care is relatively cheapā¦
The United States ranks 69th!! and UK ranks 34th!! most affordableā¦ So both have much to learn from more organised countriesā¦

Trump backs out of ABC debate vs. Harris, pushes for Fox News instead

Throughout the months you and Trump made fun of Joe Bidenās mental decline, and now you want to brag about beating him, There is nothing to brag about beating a mentally deteriorated person.
He did little if any to fix the problems you stated
It is lobbying that determines how far congress will go to support the people over corporate interests
- In 2021, health care companies spent nearly $700 million on lobbying, the highest ever reported in a single year.
@SmallPaul Throughout the months many of us made fun of you and a few others cognitive blindness to Joe Bidenās mental declineā¦ We could see it years agoā¦ You chose to believe everything you were toldā¦
@SmallPaul Not surprisedā¦ There was a lot of media hype about a lot of ineffective vaccines to go into a lot of gullible peopleā¦

Kamala Harris will win the popular vote and Trump will win the electoral college votes, making Trump the President.
Harris team launches GOP group with endorsements from ex-Trump officials, key Republican voices
Vice President Harrisās campaign launched āRepublicans for Harrisā with more than 25 GOP endorsements, including former secretaries Chuck Hagel and Ray LaHood, as well as former GOP governors and lawmakers.
The campaign announced Sunday that Trump-era White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham and Olivia Troye, ex-national security adviser to former Vice President Mike Pence, also endorsed Harris.
Hagel, a Republican senator from Nebraska and Defense secretary, and LaHood, a GOP congressman from Illinois and Transportation secretary, both served under former President Obama.
Additionally, former Reps. Christopher Shays (R-Conn.), Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) and Susan Molinari (R-N.Y.) put their support behind Harris in November, along with Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), who had endorsed President Biden when he was still at the top of the ticket. The vice president replaced Biden after the incumbent stepped aside last month following a disastrous debate performance and multiple calls from Democrats to drop out of the race.
āI encourage other Trump administration officials who saw the tyrant we worked for in office to speak out and stand with Kamala Harris this November to keep integrity in the White House and ensure democracy for our country,ā Grisham said in a statement.
Troye added, āThe stakes are too high to let partisanship jeopardize our freedoms and the Constitution.ā
Republicans for Harris will focus on activating GOP voices āto speak to their friends and family about the importance of voting for the Vice President,ā according to the campaign, which described the group as a ācampaign within a campaign.ā The group will have kickoff events Monday in battleground states Arizona, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
Other endorsements came from former GOP Govs. Bill Weld (Mass.), Christine Todd Whitman (N.J.) and Jim Edgar (Ill.), the campaign announced Sunday. It also highlighted that former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) endorsed Harris after backing Biden.
I was hoping the tablets would work for you Dennis but sadly you are still as sick as that narcissist you think is normal.
It is truly incredible that āadultsā still support this bully whose speeches are weird and dangerous.

This is all from Obamacare, which put the Health Insurance industry in charge of our healthcare.
The other big factor is we do not have enough doctors, the babyboomers are all now at retirement age and 50% of the doctors in the US are boomers.
A simple solution is to remove the government and insurance companies from our healthcare and go back to paying the healthcare provider directly
another interesting fact is the US is turning out 4 new lawyers for every 1 new doctor, this is not good

@Dennis3450 Competition amongst insurers can bring down the costsā¦ Although even in Australiaā¦ Pricing collusion is regulated by ASIC closelyā¦
I believe even if you are part of the Commonwealth (UK, Northern Ireland, Canada etc) you are eligible for free healthcare while in Australiaā¦
Unlike the US and UK who a currently letting anyone across their bordersā¦ Australia generally only targets skilled immigrationā¦ So healthcare skilled migrants are sought to fill any shortfalls in the public health systems hereā¦
We are currently having issues with Government funding of the Hospital systemā¦ Leftist Governmentās have pis*ed so much money against the wall during COVID and building vanity infrastructure projects that only small demographics will ever useā¦ They are cutting public funding to the health systemā¦
Fortunatelyā¦ This is having a huge negative impact on their re-election prospectsā¦ Even the lunatic fringe go into meltdown over health service cutsā¦
