Comment on the proposed healthcare bill, specifically the tax cut for the wealthy and the potential changes being considered.
It is a stupid idea to put a $1 Trillion tax cut for the wealthy in a healthcare bill cutting Medicaid for poor by $1.2 Trillion. But according to some Republicans planning the next version of the Healthcare bill adds back features of Obamacare and drops a major portion of the tax cut for top bracket taxpayers. The changes being considered also include $45 Billion for opioid addiction treatment; shrinking cuts to medicaid, and taking away provision to allow Insurers to offer stripped down policies by requiring that insurers follow Obamacare requirements for policies. See if this batch of smart ideas lasts the weekend.
