Sen. Rubio - Once Again Proves He's a Fraud

Marco Rubio has now written his second book. He states this one is more on 'policy'. As in Obamacare bad, and all of the rest.

He also goes back to the opportunity his father was given here in the U.S., which enabled Marco to pursue the life he now leads.

Rubio is the definition of hypocrisy!

While he was in the Florida House, he was offered health insurance for $8.00 a month. Or, $30.00 a month for the entire family. The rest was subsidized by the tax payers of Florida.

(While in office and campaigning, he also used 5K in campaign dollars for a marble kitchen floor, and $1200.00 to fix the AC in the family van and got caught)

Now as a senator he has the opportunity to purchase health care under the 'federal program', or choose the ACA.

The federal program is subsidized. I don't know if he's getting a subsidy using the ACA as he claims. Either way, it's affordable. More so for him, than most others.

Maybe as a Senator with salaries over 150K they should have to outright purchase a private plan, and leave the subsidies for others in these programs? After all, they should not be serving for life, and then could go back and get into the insurance pool.

Maybe their lifetime pensions should be removed as well. They are subsidized also. Marco Rubio demonetizes these subsidies, wherever they are. Yet he receives them. Put him and the rest on Soc. Sec. and stop the 'teet sucking', while they write books that all of this is bad, except when it comes to them. It's time for Marco Rubio to stop writing these books, laced with falsehoods and hold him accountable for all that he has received. Make him explain why these policies are good for him, and not others. Make him pay his share.

Make him pay at the polls, for shilling books full of hypocrisies.
Marco Rubio should never, ever become President of these United States.

I do think that the Republican nominee for President will be a Gen X candidate whoever it may end up being. Wouldn't be surprised if it is Scott Walker.
