THE CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE CAME OUT WITH ITS SCORE
FOR THE REPUBLICAN HEALTHCARE PROPOSAL, THE AHCA.
EVERYONE WAS
WONDERING HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE KICKED OFF OF
INSURANCE.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
REPUBLICANS AND DONALD TRUMP
TOLD US NO ONE WOULD GET KICKED OFF INSURANCE, EVERYONE WILL
HAVE IT, IT WILL BE A LOWER PRICE FOR EVERYONE AND MORE
COVERAGE.
AND YOU ARE ALL GETTING PLAY BOXES FOR
CHRISTMAS!
PLAY BOXES?
PLAYSTATION, XBOX -- YOU'RE
GETTING BOTH!
IT TURNS OUT, NOT TRUE.
OF COURSE!
HOW MANY PEOPLE
WILL LOSE INSURANCE UNDER THE NEW REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL?
23
MILLION PEOPLE.
NOW, I WANT TO BE CLEAR ABOUT THIS, SOME PEOPLE
CALL THIS TRUMPCARE, BUT THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS IN
FAVOR OF THIS, THEY ARE THE ONES WHO PASSED IT IN THE HOUSE, THEY
MADE IT EVEN MORE DRACONIAN THAN EVEN DONALD TRUMP WANTED.
THE
TEA PARTY GUYS IN THE HOUSE WERE LIKE, NO, WE WANT MORE PEOPLE
KICKED OFF INSURANCE!
WHY?
BECAUSE THEY WANTED EVEN MORE
TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH.
I'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT THAT, BUT FIRST
THE CBO IS NONPARTISAN, THEY TELL YOU WHAT THE BILL WILL DO.
THEY HAD SOME GOOD NEWS HERE TOO, THEY SAID --
>>THAT SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD, RIGHT?
HOLD -- LET ME TELL YOU
WHY SOME OF THOSE PREMIUMS ARE COMING DOWN, AND WHY YOU HAVE
THE DEFICIT REDUCTION IN THE FIRST PLACE.
SO --
>>YEAH, IT WILL COST LESS IF IT
DOESN'T COVER YOU WHEN YOU ARE
SICK.
THAT'S NOT REALLY AN INSURANCE PLAN.
THE STATES COULD
TAKE AWAY YOUR COVERAGE IF YOU HAD A PRE-EXISTING CONDITION, SO
WE ARE BACK TO THE BAD OLD DAYS, THEY COULD PUT CAPS ON HOW MUCH
INSURANCE COMPANIES CAN SPEND ON YOU PER YEAR OR IN YOUR
LIFETIME, IF YOU HAVE A
CAP AND
YOU GET CANCER, SORRY, YOU
REACHED YOUR CAP, THAT'S OVER
$12,000 -- [BUFFERING]
