Breitbart is now reporting that Fauxbamacare is weaker on allowing illegal immigrants to purchase health insurance than Obamacare.

Obamacare 2.0 Guts Enforcement, Gives Illegal Aliens Healthcare Through Identity Fraud - Breitbart

Although Obamacare didn’t require photo ID and fingerprints to verify identity, it did harness the Department of Homeland Security’s Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database. Thus, officials were at least able to check immigration status against Social Security numbers.

The problem with this bill is that because it tweaks Obamacare and creates a new massive entitlement system through the budget reconciliation process, it cannot have the statutory effect of mandating HHS and IRS work with Citizenship and Immigration Services to use the SAVE database because that issue is outside the jurisdiction of the reporting committees. And no subject matter from other committees can be included in reconciliation.


Thus, to pass Obamacare 2.0 instead of plain repeal via budget reconciliation, Republicans must use weaker verification language.

The comment section is livid. They're blaming Reince Preibus for this. :mjlol:

Has anyone even considered the fact that the 30% premium increase for 1 year would be INSANELY more than the Penalty for not having insurance under Obama care. To my memory, the MAX penalty under Obamacare was $700 right ?

A 30% penalty over the course of a year on my plan would be over $2,000.... How is that better ?

Concealed within the 123 pages of legislative verbiage and dense boilerplate of the House Republican bill repealing the Affordable Care Act are not a few hard-to-find nuggets. Here’s one crying out for exposure: The bill encourages health insurance companies to pay their top executives more.

It does so by removing the ACA’s limit on corporate tax deductions for executive pay. The cost to the American taxpayer of eliminating this provision: well in excess of $70 million a year. In the reckoning of the Institute for Policy Studies, a think tank that analyzed the limitation in 2014, that would have been enough that year to buy dental insurance under the ACA for 262,000 Americans, or pay the silver plan deductibles for 28,000.

The Institute for Policy Studies calculated in 2014 that the 10 biggest insurance companies had paid their top 57 executives a total of $300 million the previous year. Because of the ACA rule, they were able to deduct only 27% of the sum. Without the ACA, they would have been able to deduct 96%.

Here's the secret payoff to health insurance CEOs buried in the GOP Obamacare repeal bill

I see a lot of cats posting what they hate about both ObamaCare and CaciCare, but I also see no one providing legitimate alternatives.

With the national debt as high as it is and the amount of people who are unemployed, disabled, sick, poor etc., no matter what health bill is put in place someone is going to get screwed.

So what are your solutions since we have so many financial geniuses on thecoli :yeshrug:

These idiots took a sure fire populist victory and are going to turn it into everlasting defeat.
SMH.
Providing subsidy for insurance instead of penalty and grandfathering in those who are high risk insurance clients.
SMH.

What a failure IMHO. Crony capitalism at its finest from the GOP side.
