I dont care. Still richer than a majority of the constituents they represent.
Also still 100% insulated from what they voted for, for their constituents.

He should, but he’s also a GOP libertarian moron, so there’s that.

So is this the progessive version of the rights Soros dogwhistle? Sure seems like it. It’s gross.
You can (and should) be critical of both AIPAC and the Democrats caving in the shutdown, without going all “Soros paid them!” about it. 😒
Where is your list for the Airline PACs $s?
Do better.

I stopped earlier than that. The sneering, condescending tone was more than I could stand.

Lmao, I guess they didn’t like being told this was delusional thinking. 🤣

Word. I cant get close to that working for a fortune 50 either. That massive premium increase (for substantially WORSE coverage overall) is criminal.

Right. 10 months of NOT paying already congressionally allocated funds should have disabused anyone of hoping for that.

I dont either. But if you understand how FSAs (or for the sake of argument HSAs) these products work, like I do - its a cave. There is a reason reason republicans are offering this as an option - and its not to help people.

I hope so. Ive just seen Dems cave already (and get nothing) already this year.

No. I cant. Republicans are the ones who got smacked around this week electorally. They’re going to spare them Christmas and Thanksgiving… for what?
To blow up their affordable healthcare expenses in the New Year?

Not just Truth Social.
There are more than Truth Social sources on this.
Now you can argue they might be partisan sources have an agenda, I don’t disagree - but its not just Truth Social posts.

FSAs are not HSAs though, they’re different. In this scenario, they’re worse. And neither can be used to pay premiums (except HSAs can be used to pay for COBRA).

Yep. In a nutstell.
For a useless FSA that cant be used to pay premiums, and is gatekept use-it- or-lose-it funding.

You cant use FSAs for insurance premiums.
They’re also use-it-or-lose-it medical payment options.
How is this deemed a valid counteroffer worth ANY consideration? Tell me you’ve never used an FSA before, senators. Absolute lunacy.

Bloody New Hampshire - its *always* those two senators.

I truly do not understand after Tuesday, how they can even consider caving to this counteroffer. This is not any kind compromise, this is smoke and mirrors nothing. They held out for a month - for absolutely nothing gained.
