Obama Slams GOP Health Plan as 'Massive Transfer of Wealth'

Former President Barack Obama on Thursday ripped the Republican Senate's plan to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, calling it "a massive transfer of wealth from middle-class and poor families to the richest people in America."

"It is not a healthcare bill," the two-term Democratic president said on Facebook. "It hands enormous tax cuts to the rich and to the drug and insurance industries, paid for by cutting healthcare for everybody else."

"...calling it "a massive transfer of wealth from middle-class and poor families to the richest people in America."

As opposed to BOcare which is a massive transfer of wealth from the middle class and elderly to the poor.

This is hypocrisy. Obamacare taxed instruments and devices needed in healthcare. The tax payer subsidized insurance companies on their say so. The FDA / drug companies are allowed to charge what ever they want for drugs / prescriptions. This is three examples of the rich getting richer under Obamacare. Obama has the imaginary balls to criticize the Republican repeal / replace the trash called Obamacare.

8:08 yea he made it 2 terms because of all the welfare people voting 4 him because of all that he promised. And now look at us. We've made deals with Iran, our healthcare system is a disaster and we are trillions of dollars in debt. But I bet a dumba$$ like you would still vote him back in!

The only part about the turd's statement that is true is the part about the benefit to the insurance companies! The law should be written to benefit the people - and the insurance companies required to operate with in the law!
