Paul Ryan Insists 22 Million Will Choose To Not Buy Health Insurance

[turbinetree]

During an interview with Fox News, House Speaker Paul Ryan insisted that the Republican healthcare plan wasn’t going to kick people off their insurance. Instead, Ryan suggested that 22 million would simply make the “choice” to not buy health insurance. This man is delusional. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

1. I choose not to buy a Bentley...

Or my own island in the South Pacific.

Makes perfect sense.

2. No more paid health insurance for Congress

Because I predict they really do not want it.........................

3. Even if

Even if they simply don't want to buy insurance, how many millionswill still get sick and need health care, costing a fortune.

4. Yes, they'll just squander their money on silly things like food and shelter

instead of spending it on health insurance like responsible people of the upper middle class.

I will not believe in justice until I see him arguing with the Koch brothers over a piece of mildewed pizza from a dumpster.

5. Sure. And I choose not to buy a diamond tiara or a Maserati.

So if a person making $25K a year doesn't buy health insurance that costs $15K a year, I guess that person has chosen to have a home or food instead. Here in America you should be able to make that choice, right?

Asshole.

6. Of course, at a cost of $50,000 per year, I choose not to buy health insurance.

Actually, I choose to eat rather than buy health insurance. My free market choice.

The Democrats should be able to slam the republicans with this bullshit.
