2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races

the government can dictate insurances companies having to offer you insurance regardless of your pre existing conditions, if they choose to offer an Aca plan.
Insurance companies don’t have to offer an Aca plan if they choose not to.
Insurance companies technically have to pay for everything. But the reason they don’t is due to “medical necessity”.
if you got sickle cell disease and wanted a new treatment, drug etc. they don’t have to pay if it’s not “medically necessary”. But they establish the rules on what that is. If their is a cheaper option available (even if it’s a way worse option) they will seem it not necessary medically.
the government (medicare, medicaid) also does this. That’s why they don’t pay for wheelchair ramps for example if you become paralyzed. Most people don’t need wheelchair ramps, so therefore wheelchair ramps aren’t medically necessary.
You’re 100% right it’s arbitrary as fukk. In essence they can pick and choose what they’ll pay for.
Given the current and projected population percentage of African Americans. Treatments that help diseases that we get more than other races(like sickle cell) wouldn’t be medically necessary because the majority of the us population doesn’t need those treatments.
That’s why black politicians lobbied Bernie to remove it. He didn’t. And that’s why Biden removed it from his public option plan and Warren did a couple weeks ago for her public option bill as well.
A little late for this discussion, but I'm BidenBoyz for 2020. Bernie didn't get a damn thing passed in Congress and he thinks he's going close hospitals and layoff doctors with one signature??? With a partisan Congress???
Man STFU. We didn’t forget you saying you are against tuition-free college because then your degree would be devalued so fukk all those people who can’t afford it. You’re not remotely a progressive on anything but social issues like LGBT rights.A little late for this discussion, but I'm BidenBoyz for 2020.

I did say that and I was a selfish idiot. I realize the only reason that college got expensive is because it was so easy to sucked into getting a loan for it.
But tell me how M4A would work without ANY incrementalism? I'm for M4A, but there needs to be incremental steps to do it. For Bernie to say he would enact in his first week as President is fukking stupid.

Motherfukkers really in here shilling for Biden. You motherfukkers really wanna lose. BAD.
Pedo looking shyt everywhere.
A horrific record.
A brain short circuiting all the time.
Makes Trump look coherent to the point that it would be political malpractice for Trump not to debate him.
Insults the base all the time.
Probably more entitled than Hillary was last election.
Literally would consider a Republican as VP.
Literally did a speech for a Republican a year or 2 ago.
Literally views the Republican party like its 1988 or something.
Has been coddled by the press a shyt ton.
The Trump camp couldn't ask for a better answer.

How'd I forget the most obvious thing? The impeachment looks like a whole big ass cover up for obvious crooked shyt. Could not ask for a weaker opponent.
Then we have Warren, who has fallen off something serious and is only getting worse. Don't even need to get into that.
Promising everything to everyone only last for sooo long.
Bernies about to get that work too tho.
