Via Washington Examiner:
Former President Barack Obama blasted the Senate bill to repeal and replace portions of Obamacare as “not a healthcare bill.”
“It’s a massive transfer of wealth from middle-class and poor families to the richest people in America,” he wrote in a Facebook post. “It hands enormous tax cuts to the rich and to the drug and insurance industries, paid for by cutting health care for everybody else.”
“I recognize that repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act has become a core tenet of the Republican Party,” he said. “Still, I hope that our senators, many of whom I know well, step back and measure what’s really at stake, and consider that the rationale for action, on healthcare or any other issue, must be something more than simply undoing something that Democrats did.”
Obama noted that changes would be made to the bill but that he believed they would be just as harmful, invoking a term his successor, President Trump used, calling the House healthcare bill “mean.”
“Simply put, if there’s a chance you might get sick, get old, or start a family — this bill will do you harm,” he said. “And small tweaks over the course of the next couple weeks, under the guise of making these bills easier to stomach, cannot change the fundamental meanness at the core of this legislation.”

Well, look who returned from the irrelevant crypt. Barry Hussein. It is unbelievable to me that this POS would come out and criticize anything let alone anything that has to do with healthcare. How does this guy live with himself? Why does this idiot think anything he says is relevant. He wasn't relevant when he was president..And who cares what Osama thinks? Oh wait, that would be millions of people who don't have a coherent train of thought. So let's take two of his bullet points from his critique of the republican healthcare bill and see what we get:
Bullet point 1: "It’s a Massive Transfer of Wealth From the Poor to the Rich"
Really? Only in the mind of a socialist is letting people keep money they earned, a transference of wealth from the poor to the rich. The other problem here is that by definition, the poor don't have any 'wealth' moron. Obamacare was nothing but a redistribution of wealth scheme and is the biggest fraud/scam/hoax ever forced on the American people. It was a nasty law and because of it, famlies lost their insurance and made it virtually unaffordable for them to buy. This asshole truly is a psychopath. As a matter of fact, Obama himself was the biggest fraud/scam/hoax ever forced on the American people. And speaking of that massive transfer of wealth, you mean like those pallet loads of cash going to Iran. He was all in for the transfer of wealth from Main Street to Wall Street and illegal aliens, and the nonworking class, but didn't have any problem draining the Middle Class. You cannot take money from the poor to give to the rich, because the poor don't have any money to steal. That's why he had to steal it from the Middle Class. He used be able to talk to the country, now he's just talking to the idiots who believe him.
Bullet point 2: "Those with private insurance will experience higher premiums and higher deductibles"
Those with private insurance will experience higher premiums and higher deductibles? Sorry, too late Obamacare already did it.
This is all you need to see:
I'm just glad that Obamacare delivered all promises. You got to keep your doctor and plan. Oh wait. You will save $2500. Uh, no. Your deductubles will decrease. I think they tripled or worse. All the promises ended up being lies and the left had zero issues with that? Oh yeah and the system is failing but then of course it was meant to. This was always about the government controlling healthcare which is what a lot of people think they want. It will happen and when you and your family can't get care at least it will be free. "You lie!" , said Joe Wilson to Obama State of the Union. Take a victory lap Joe.
Each day another one of Obama's legacies is tossed in the dumpster behind The White House. Face it Barry, in four years from now it will be like you were never President...MAGA
