I am pretty sure they just want to destroy the ACA and this is the best way they've found because they can't do it with legislation
This is the dumbest thing in the world. The fraud is that people are paying for insurance and they’re… healthy?
Dr Oz says the Trump administration will kick more than a million people off health insurance because some of them have "never filed a claim"

“This country has never elected a female president. Why are we pretending that this is not a factor?” Ocasio-Cortez said with a laugh. “That doesn’t make it impossible, but to act as though it’s not a factor in anything ever is really a form of, like, denialism” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/22/u...

My entire life I've heard centrists scolding leftist candidates with "oh, but how will we pay for all that? isn't your agenda unreasonable? shouldn't we run on a modest proposal for means-tested tax rebates?"
Then Mamdani gets elected and makes it all look pretty easy. No wonder they hate him.

There is something so unbelievably bleak about an article that calmly walks readers through how to navigate being laid off after 50, losing your health insurance, and somehow surviving the years until Medicare. What a broken country.

At best, older workers will struggle to find health insurance that bridges the years before they qualify for Medicare at age 65.

Please know that this is one of my few legitimate areas of actual, high-level professional expertise: Kicking the healthiest people off of a health insurance program will bankrupt it.
