A Fearful Scott Walker Pivots Center On Healthcare
With the 2018 re-election campaign staring him in the face and the Democratic upset in Wisconsin’s 10th Senate District, Wisconsin’s Republican Governor Scott Walker is pivoting to the center on healthcare. After demonizing the Affordable Care Act since its inception and his refusal to accept the Medicaid expansion that it provides, suddenly the […]
Debating the ACA Individual Mandate
Whether you support or have issue with the Affordable Care Act’s individual mandate…I would hope you at least support stripping it out of the tax reform cut legislation currently before Congress. Now the mandate says that every individual must have health insurance either through their employer, the ACA exchanges or through a private plan (plus […]

Trump’s Handling of the ACA is Criminal
Obviously President Trump ran on repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. And we all know that the Republicans in Congress have been singing that song for the past seven plus years.

From what I have read about the House and Senate heath insurance bills…it sounds like the states who accepted the Medicaid expansion will fair far better than those states that didn’t. So Governor Walker…it’s time to accept the Medicaid expansion portion of the Affordable Care Act before it’s too late to do so. And it […]
Scott Walker Is A Pre-existing Condition
And a member of a high risk pool that we can’t afford. Ok, let’s put the puns aside for a minute, but since the passage of the House version of the American Health Care Act…another reason that Governor Scott Walker should not be re-elected has been exposed.
After passage of the bill, Governor Walker’s gut […]
I am not going to do much commenting on this item…just pretty much grab a couple of key quotes and let it go at that…and please see the different view in the previous post:
