25 Million Uninsured Americans

Original Article

Posted By: JoElla Bee, 7/13/2023 4:18:50 PM

Sens. J.D. Vance (R-OH) and Josh Hawley (R-MO) have joined a number of House Republicans, urging President Joe Biden’s Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra to drop a plan that opens taxpayer-subsidized healthcare benefits to illegal aliens enrolled in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.(snip) Prior research has found that offering Obamacare to illegal aliens would cost American taxpayers about $4,600 per illegal alien. Such an estimate indicates that taxpayers could be charged about $2.8 billion every year to provide Obamacare to every DACA illegal alien.

How dare they. They destroyed health insurance in half a dozen ways. Obama care is NOT affordable for the average working person. Deductibles are outrageous. In 2015 my brother-in-law was diagnosed with prostate cancer. It was very early and it was October so the doctor recommended waiting until after the first of the year in order to get the most out of his $6K deductible. Then in November he had a dizzy spell and they found a brain tumor. That couldn't wait, and thankfully the surgery was a rousing success. The prostate had to wait until March 2016 because of the brain surgery but, thankfully, it was an amazing success. Then in July my sister needed a lumpectomy. Her surgery was a success as well. Because the three surgeries straddled 2015+16, their out of pocket expense was $18K, 3, $6K deductibles. With their old private insurance, and everything else being exactly the same, the out of pocket would have been $1,500. How many average people can handle that? Now a couple more MILLION people getting FREE health insurance?? How much farther can they beat us into the ground? We talked to the Rep when my husband's employer had open enrollment in January, we had to take out a separate policy to cover the deductible. Insurance just so we can use our insurance. It probably used as a scare tactic to increase sales but it worked. With what happened to my sister, I was too scared to pass on it.

One of the Dems main battle cries is "Every other country provides FREE health insurance to their citizens"...Fine...then we don't need to provide it for them, in fact send EVERY Bill for anything and everything to their Home Countries. Medical care, legal aid, housing, food, transport, education, Govt costs...everydime they cost US, send to their home Govts.

There is no such thing as free health care. If it is free to anyone SOMEONE is paying for it.

Why not put the illegals at the head of the line at the VA hospitals? /s If the illegals are on O'care, will the illegals be forced to pay the premiums (monthly payments) and the deductibles?

President Joe Biden’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is striving to enlist a diverse workforce through targeting certain demographics even as its air traffic control system is facing shortages and safety challenges.(Snip) Mountain States Legal Foundation sued on behalf of plaintiff Andrew Brigida and over 2,000 other air traffic controller applicants who had test scores invalidated due to former President Barack Obama’s 2015 FAA diversity policy intended to hire more minorities.

Scientists have grown an entity that closely resembles an early human embryo, without using sperm, eggs or a womb. The Weizmann Institute team say their "embryo model", made using stem cells, looks like a textbook example of a real 14-day-old embryo.It even released hormones that turned a pregnancy test positive in the lab.The ambition for embryo models is to provide an ethical way of understanding the earliest moments of our lives. The first weeks after a sperm fertilises an egg is a period of dramatic change - from a collection of indistinct cells to something that eventually becomes recognisable on a baby scan.

As part of a push to "sinicize" religion, the Chinese Communist Party has embarked on a 10-year project to rewrite the Bible and other religious texts.(snip) Across Henan province, local CCP officials forced Protestant churches to replace the Ten Commandments with Xi Jinping quotes.

Joe Biden’s Green Energy Flop: Automakers
Realize Americans Are Not Buying Electric Vehicles

Posted by Dreadnought 10/28/2023 3:39:20 PM Post Reply
After investing billions into a green energy agenda mimicking President Joe Biden’s federal rules, American automakers are quickly learning that Americans are not buying electric vehicles (EVs) at the rates they expected. A comprehensive report in the Detroit Free Press details how the latest data reveals that while the Biden administration is pushing hard for automakers to turn out EVs, car companies are unable to sell the models. Data from Edmunds.com shows that in September 2022, for example, EVs sat on dealership lots for just 21 days before they were sold. Today, EVs are sitting on dealership lots for 65 days. Automakers, as Breitbart News reported, are well aware of the issue.

Thousands gathered in Istanbul on Saturday for what was touted as the “Great Palestine Meeting.” The event was a pro-Palestine rally aimed at condemning Israel’s recent military actions in Gaza, where Hamas headquarters are located. Hamas terrorists were responsible for a deadly attack that claimed the lives of 1,400 Jews in southern Israel. One must ask the question: What did people expect Israel to do in response? Not retaliate? When an entity like Hamas, designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union, and Israel, engages in violent acts aimed at killing civilians, it is not only Israel’s right but also its obligation to defend its citizens.

The project began in 2021 and is ongoing, but the initial analysis determined samples to contain clayey and marine materials and seafood. According to the researchers, these results mean human activity was present on the boat-shaped mound between 5500 and 3000 BC.

We haven’t seen a specific bill yet, but Johnson’s first move was to pass an endorsement of Israel and a denouncement of Hamas terrorism, which was a good sign. He will also need
