This is from Marge Greene. You know who has been warning about this for months? Democrats.

18. Marjory, Marjory, Marge..ory.... Is this really a shocking surprise to you? Did you not know...

...that these premiums were going to be "DOUBLING" (and more in many cases) when you voted for the One Big Beautiful Bill that set all of this in motion? It was in the damn bill. Did you not read it; not believe it; not think it would actually happen; or just fail to comprehend what Democrats were telling everyone about what would happen if you passed the reconciliation monstrosity along party lines?

Republicans in leadership haven't given you a plan to help Americans deal with their health insurance premiums precisely because it was their plan to allow the subsidies to expire in the first place to help pay for tax cuts for billionaires Marge. Very soon we will have the first trillionaire, but I bet there will not be a plan to have them help pay for anything in the U.S. budget will there Marjory?

And "all insurance is a scam"? I would note that us on the left never wanted the ACA to be an insurance program. We wanted a single-payer system that did not funnel billions into the pockets of middle-men, but I wonder who would not let that stand? You get what you can get and the ACA was far better than the system we had in place, but it obviously did not go far enough and has failed to be able to protect itself from the political vultures circling overhead at every turn.

So please tell us what your Faux News-addled brain sees as a good plan going forward--because your party's plan all along was to have these subsidies expire and premiums explode to deal a death-blow to the ACA. Do you want to claw back some tax cuts to reinstate the subsidies; do you want to just reinstate them and add to the debt and deficit; do you want to see us shift to a single-payer system; do you want to require employers to pay people enough to afford healthcare; do you want to require health systems to eat more costs and pay providers less? What's YOUR plan there genius? Because as far as I can tell, the plan from your leadership has always been to let anyone that can't afford to belong to a country club to die in the street.
