I think I should be happy about this, since my total rate is going down, even after all the deductions that have been destroyed. Yet somehow this feels like I am getting fucked.
I never thought I'd see Moore lose, or Trump win.... If anyone can fuck this up, it's this administration
I'm surprised you are doing better under the tax plan. Max rate is down nominally but your state deductions are capped and your apt is less mortgagable.
That's a point that smart well meaning people could debate and I could certainly be convinced. It's a much different claim than than the completely false narrative than @Clubber Lang has been fed in his bubble that there was a net decrease in number of insured after ACA, which is demonstrably false. I imagine the peddling of assertions like this that a child could easily verify as false is equally or possibly more infuriating to someone like you with well thought out alternatives than it is to me. I would say that I'm all for debating a legitimate alternative plan that's serious, not the BS "allow insurance sales across state lines and it will solve everything" type alternative. Or the chicken shit route of ending the insurance mandate but saying that those with preexisting conditions still get coverage, which is just intellectually dishonest. Unfortunately you're a voice in the wilderness on that at this point.
hire the neighbors boy to do it. Why do it yourself, unless you get enjoyment out of puttering around. Many people do..
