Soooo.....lets look at what the Kaiser Family Foundation has estimated for a 60 year old man earning $50,000 per year. Under Obamacare his federal rebate program would have him pay an average of $6,000 per year for medical coverage. Under Trumpcare, his tax credit would be $4,000 to help him pay for health insurance that would cost him $15,000. So, would you rather pay $6,000 or $11,000? Of course, if you are 20, your Trumpcare tax credit would be $2,000 and you would possibly pay less than with Obamacare, but, with Trumpcare you now have a choice! Also with Trumpcare, the VERY RICH get a $197,000 tax break....why? can't they afford health insurance with the $4,000 tax credit? So, again the poor subsidise the rich, and the VERY POOR, THE DISABLED, AND CHILDREN have Medicaid cut drastically.
