Remember when Republicans didn’t Want Obamacare The Wall and Space Force Will Heal you all.

HealthCare, remember the GOP SenateGOP senatemajldr plan from 10 years ago to repeal/replace ObamaCare with a better plan? How’s that working out for you? 2 years of absolute power and GOP passed a TaxScamBreak. Trumpgate GOPGate is killing Americans, killing healthcare

The flaws of capitalism

Decouple health insurance from employment. BAM! Medicare4All!

Well they deserve the choice to do that. FREEDOM!

i lost my job based health insurance and the only reason i can keep seeing my therapist is because of a tax break from IL. THANK YOU OBAMA

You guys have health insurance?

Thank you democrats and the media. And all because you hate Trump. Get bracing for the shit storm coming your way. Obamagate

How about debts and bills that should be paid from wages Do they loose that too 😩😷🥴..

Trumpers, give me the details of Trump's healthcare plan he promised 4 years ago. I'll wait.

‘You can get insurance through your job,’ they said.

Maybe we should stop having a healthcare system that ties insurance to employment. 🤔

Good job power hungry governors and the liberals who enabled them

27 unemployed Americans did not all have insurance through work. Though anyone who did has lost it and it's possible anyone who bought their own insurance can no longer afford it.

😥

who else is high? 🙎🏽

only in democrat states where people can not work. They have cobra that they pay for, This is what happens when Fauci lies and says 1-2 million will die.

You forgot that the GOP is trying to kill the ACA which would cover these people and that COVID-19 would be one a pre-existing condition. DeathByGOP

Gee, maybe we shouldn't tie h/c to employment.

The cascading affects of this shut down are incalculable. Crushing hospitals, destroying basic health not to mention the depressing end of life situation for millions of people spending their last days on earth locked away in isolation. All for a virus w/a 99% survivability rate

Let people determine how much risk they are willing to accept and go back to work.

What happened to that everybody loves their employer based health care take?

Then they should be eligible for medicaid unless states decide to change policy's,,.

Thanks to liars like ABC reporting BS and trying to scare people over a fraud

Only in a f'ed up society, would you be making more on unemployment than at a full-time job. America is f'ed up. And the unemployment pay is the lesser issue.

Name one instance in the past 20 yrs that a Republican was in White house & U.S economy did not go to the trash with unprecedented Americans unemployed? .. NONE!

Good job tieing health insurance to employment, America.

BernieSanders

Yikes-and did you see that Obama had a big ol hand in unmasking General Flynnn ObamaGate

And all the while Trump is trying to kill the ACA and guarantee millions will lose their insurance in the middle of the pandemic. What a POS...
