I already explained this to you, this Pfizer deal doesn't do much. The prices offered will be higher than insurance negotiated prices. You sound silly repeating these lies.
-
You fell for it yesterday. Dummy.

A shutdown falls on the president's lack of leadership. I mean problems start from the top and they have to get solved from the top. A shutdown means the president is weak.

This country was dead. Now we have the hottest country in the world.

Oof

Why are you rooting for people to lose their jobs? What's the matter with you?

You know what fixes all this?

ADP Jobs report came in for Sept 32k jobs lost. August revised from a 54k gain to a 3k loss. https://www.cnn.com/2025/10/01/economy/adp-private-jobs-report-september We're not getting a BLS report this week due to shutdown.

I'd love to hear your logic on this one.
-
Nice deflection.
-
Time to take you to school again. Trump's plan was voluntary, meaning that he asked insurers to cap pricing at $35/mo. It had little effect. Biden through the Inflation Reduction Act made it mandatory, and removed deductibles as well, providing real effect and savings.

Do you know anything about this pfizer deal? TrumpRx? If it happens, it will allow consumers without insurance to buy drugs directly from Pfizer at a discount, which will undoubtedly be higher than what was negotiated by insurance. It's another scam that will amount to nothing, but I didn't expect you to know this. Now you do. Also with regards to what Biden did? Biden brought forth actual presciption discounts including $35/mo insulin and allowing medicaire to negotiate prices. He also passed ACA subsidies making it cheaper for people to afford health insurance which expanded enrollment by 12M people. Of course republicans are letting this expire, which is what we're talking about here. It's factually false to say Trump has already done more than Biden, unless you actually think he's gonna lower drug prices by 1000% this week
-
It's not a deflection, I already acknowledged you were correct in your original point, but you failed to hold republicans accountable for the same. This is because you are a partisan hack., Republicans have had control of everything multiple times, including right now, and they do nothing about healthcare, except make it more expensive. If you're not going to own that then you're a fraud.
-
Republicans are in charge now, where's the alternative? What happened to repeal and replace?
-
Your point from 32 mins ago. Sorry I had a call. It's a valid point, valid for republicans as well wouldn't you agree? So we have one party that doesn't want to do anything, and another party that wants to offer subsidies to help rising costs. Are you trying to say that the republicans are on higher moral ground here?
-
Well let's just be clear on the facts here before you dig yourself any deeper. The enhanced subsidies were passed as part of the American Recovery Act of 2021. This is the what you are calling a temporary stopgap. They were extended 3 more years as part of the Inflation Reduction Act. They were extended as costs rose dramatically during the covid recovery. Set to expire end of this year. Health insurance premiums continue to rise. Coupled with losing these subsidies, millions of Americans will no longer be able to afford their insurance and lose it. Republicans want this to happen. This is not pablum, it's facts and real life.
-
Not going to argue with me that the Democrats suck at politics. Politics aside, Republicans have decided they want to make healthcare more expensive for millions of Americans.

Thanks for taking time to reply.

That's the way laws are written. Most of these things have sunset clauses either so they can be deficit neutral or for other political reasons. Republicans do it all the time too, it's how things work. It's like saying "Republicans voted to end tax cuts" in 2016 when they voted for the tax cuts with a sunset date. Saying "Democrats voted to end them" is disingenuous. Democrats voted to extend them for 4 years. That's more accurate. Get it?

I follow along with the Strike mentality, it's ok to call out as long as there is evidence of the behavior. Donald Trump acts like a pedo, has been accused of child rape, has a long history of friendship with Epstein and Maxwell, has given Maxwell leniency and has covered up the Epstein files which he is in. So yeah I'm gonna call him a pedo for that. As far as calling people human garbage, sure, when anyone here acts like a terrible person, I'm gonna call you out on that. If I ever did the same, you can call me out on it too.
-
The lies are in full force this morning. Nice to see some in the media having the balls to call them out.
-
Elon says that Trump is in the Epstein files.

He's already been outed as magnificent bastard and recliner pilot. Bro spent most of his adult life posting here.

I'm not the only person. Clearly there are others outside the cult that can see what's going on. It is a shame that you're stuck in this cult with an inability to think for yourself that you just repeat the lies you're being fed. A useful idiot for the regime.
