Not a Yuuug fan of Trump, but have to give the guy credit when credit is due..

My Blue Cross was $364/mo and is up to $512/mo hope this executive order brings that cost down..

This is sorta like President Reagans deregulation of Airlines.. rates went down with competition..

Let's see if this has the same affect..

The US has had so-called competition in health care for the last five decades and all that has happened is that health care costs have spiraled upward.

No really you could only buy want was offered in those states by certain companies, it was very limited... it was like the Health provider had a franchise to certain regions..

This move is just like when Reagan deregulated the airline industry and ticket sales when plummeting.. I'm hoping the same will now happen with the Health Care Industry..

What surprises me is that EagleNut isn't defending this move... which is more evidence he is nothing more than a troll.. this is a great move by Trump, and he should be commended for this...

Man... you ache for my attention don't you?

You want my input to give your thread any sense of validity and meaning it would seem.

The u$ can't negotiate the lowest price in toy land ( where the drug companies live) its the law!

This Is Why Your Drug Prescriptions Cost So Damn Much

When the Republican-controlled Congress approved a landmark program in 2003 to help seniors buy prescription drugs, it slapped on an unusual restriction: The federal government was barred from negotiating cheaper prices for those medicines. Instead, the job of holding down costs was outsourced to the insurance companies delivering the subsidized new coverage, known as Medicare Part D.

The ban on government price bargaining, justified by supporters on free-market grounds, has been derided by critics as a giant gift to the drug industry. Democratic lawmakers began introducing bills to free the government to use its vast purchasing power to negotiate better deals even before former President George W. Bush signed the Part D law, known as the Medicare Modernization Act.

All those measures over the last 13 years have failed, almost always without ever even getting a hearing, much less being brought up for a vote. That’s happened even though surveys have shown broad public support for the idea. For example, a Kaiser Family Foundation poll found last year that 93 percent of Democrats and 74 percent of Republicans favor letting the government negotiate Part D prescription drug prices.

Doesn't care about Healthcare, the President just wants the subsidy money to push his tax reform plan.
There is always a reason for his tweets, change the subject most time, but never really what they seem.
The latest Puerto Rico tweets about FEMA and the ARMY not being there forever are all about needing those troops to spell
the Afgan troops who have to wait to come home. But we can not have the world think our army is stretched to far, can we?

Here is the solution.
The President is convinced that under his plan, the premiums for Health Insurance will go down. He has cut the subsidies to the insurance companies at the present time. The solution is to establish reasonable premium levels for the single and family income groups and those with pre-existing conditions etc. If the premiums exceed the established reasonable premium table, the insured with get a tax rebate from the government for the difference, Since the President is convinced competition will increase among insurance companies bringing premiums down, that being the case, it will cost the government zero.
