There are a lot of things in this world that US citizens
have to pay for, be it food, entertainment or transportation. It's common
knowledge that in United States, there has been a huge debate over healthcare
for the past decade at least. In recent years, then President Barrack Obama,
passed the Affordable Care Act which was later called "Obamacare" in
an effort to show the conservatives that the liberal Democrat still had sway
over major domestic US policy.
The stage was set! Americans polled by Pew National, a
politically right leaning fair polling firm, found that 96% of the people
polled thought that Obamacare was either, "Too generous to the poor and
needy." or "Helped people who need to work more hours like me and
Uncle Jed." Americans polled by Granite Falls Research, a far right
leaning fair polling firm found that 100% of the people they polled in Russia
thought that, "Obamacare does just enough to hurt the average American and
that makes me happy, have a great weekend!" Albeit some translation issues
in the last poll, it was quite clear what Obamacare represented to most
Americans.
Enter the Medical Mortgage Plan or MMP as it is being called
on Capitol Hill. President Trump is proposing that every American born after
the year of 1871 will be given the privilege to be forced to buy into a 55 year
MMP plan. The cost will be automatically deducted from employer pay at 58% of
total and if unemployed, will be taken from unemployment benefits 68% of total.
Trump's plan is to help ease the burden of cost by lowering income taxes to 2%
across the board.
"You've got to look out for the people, so the plan is
to lower taxes, make healthcare a part of your life like an investment. I
invest all the time, I'm worth billions on paper. I have buildings, my name is
on them. It says TRUMP really big! Let me tell you one other thing, I know what
the little guy in America wants. I've been down and out before, my first car
was a BMW 325i and it wasn't even a showroom floor model, I KNOW HOW AMERICANS
FEEL. We have to do this BIGLY!" said President Trump when asked for
comment on his new plan.
