9. It hasn't a damn thing to do with healthcare, obviously. It's just tax cut legislation for the rich

Obviously. It's called a healthcare bill so that it can be used to replace Obamacare -- but the reality is, it's just a bill that takes billions in healthcare AWAY from millions of Americans and then shovels that billions into the pockets of big insurance and billionaires.

Senate says they'll write their own. I read somewhere (can't locate the link and who knows who's credible these days) that they will write the thing as a budget bill so they can pass it w/ 'reconciliation'.

Republicans being the vile psychopaths they are, who would put this past them? I wouldn't.
