       @michael_w_busch @futurebird There were some benefits to Obamacare, otherwise it would not have passed at all. Some people benefited, though for most others it made healthcare worse.People: "We want #UniversalHealthCoverage ! #healthcare is too expensive."Obama: "I will ensure that everyone has healthcare."People: "Hooray! Obama cares."Obama: "Now everyone is REQUIRED to buy health insurance."People: "And the government will pay for it, right?"Obama: "..."People: "... right?"Obama: "No, but your preexisting conditions will be covered."People: "Yay!!!"Obamacare subsidies were set to expire, even in the original plan. Obama handed his opponents a ticking time bomb before leaving office.Trump just didn't renew this crock of a plan, because he is too busy doing other evil shit, and doesn't give a damn.Trump is a daylight robber.Obama was a midnight thief.Poor people get clobbered,electing either, as chief.
