The Trump administration just imposed a massive tax increase. You may have missed it. - GoFuckYourself.com

RedFred · 06-04-2017, 04:32 PM

This week the Trump administration managed to impose a massive tax increase on middle-income families beginning in 2018. You could be excused for missing this story if you were focusing instead on President Trump?s draconian budget or Republican efforts to take away health care from tens of millions of people. But, indeed, on Monday, the Trump Health Care Tax was born.

The new tax, 19 percent or more of premiums, will be added on top of the cost of policies purchased through the individual-market health insurance exchanges. It is a result of Trump?s decision to create as much chaos as possible in the health-care market ? in this case by not committing to continue to reimburse billions of dollars of cost-sharing payments owed to insurers just as they set prices for next year. And the president couldn?t have been more clear about why he?s imposing this tax: He thinks disrupting the Affordable Care Act exchanges, which serve more than 12 million Americans, will force Democrats to agree to proposals in his budget and in the House health-care bill that would take coverage away from tens of millions.

There is something even more troubling about this tax. In an unusual twist, it will not be paid to the government but to insurance companies. That?s because, under the ACA, 83 percent of people who are insured on the exchanges are protected from premium increases by tax credits provided by the government. If premiums go up, government payments to insurers go up with them. Trump is even willing to sacrifice federal dollars to sink the ACA.

How is that a new tax? From the text it seems insurance price increase due to not subsidizing/reimbursing them.

It's like stopping subsidizing electrical cars and saying that it is a new tax. Oh and that would be a "unusual twist" that you would pay that extra (cut subsidies) directly to the car manufacturer and not to the government, lol.

Disgusting twisting, mind manipulating.

Ps: this is not a point of agreeing or disagreeing with the decision, this is a point of disgraceful twisted "journalism".

It's not journalism, nor is it the MSM. It's written by Andy Slavitt, who is the prior administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. I'm guessing he probably is more informed of whats happening than you are.

That's a good thing, they'll lose their insurance too.

Of course Mineistaken is a white nationalist Slovakian, in Slovakia, who wants us to think he's an American Trump supporter

Seriously? And he comes on here acting like he knows more about our health insurance than the last Medicare Administrator? WTF

Trump made clear right away what his strategy was. ?The best thing we can do, politically speaking, is let Obamacare explode,? he said from the Oval Office. And Trump and his team proceeded to pour the oil and light the match

Trump will own the damage caused by this

Helix · 06-04-2017, 07:17 PM

Nope, this isn't Trumpcare. This is what Obamacare had baked into it. The only reason it has happened is because the Dems have obstructed Trump at every turn. Obama set up the risk corridors to refund the providers as a failsafe to entice them to participate. Thank Obama and the Dems for this, not Trump.

There's No Evidence of Wrongdoing.

Americans are aware that Health insurance costs have gone up world wide?

Paul Markham · 06-04-2017, 11:37 PM

so long as America has a crooked and corrupt Health Care industry, it will cost more than it should.

Trump, Clinton, Obama aren't the problem. The problem is Americans voting for politicians bought and paid for by the private health industry.
