The coast guard literally hauls drowning people and endangered boaters out of the water every damn day. Their helicopter crews are the best, better than those of any other military branch there is. This is a goddamned disgrace.

He’s just a fucking idiot. These policies reek of Steve Bannon, chief strategist/fascist to our dear leader.

This has been lighting up my Twitter feed for several days now, and the Congressional reaction from both sides of the aisle is not surprising - nobody outside the White House thinks the Coast Guard cuts are a good idea.

My childhood BFF was nearly a million in when all was said and done when she got mown down in a crosswalk during our sophomore year of college by an uninsured undocumented immigrant with no driver’s license. He fled the scene and was only tracked down later because someone who witnessed the accident wrote down a plate…

No. The maximum amount they could award him was the maximum amount the driver was insured for - $250k. 1/3 of that went to his attorney’s fees, 1/3 to the hospital, 1/3 to him. That was the driver that caused the accident, not the truck he landed in the path of. The trucking company went bankrupt almost immediately…

Roughly 923 iPhone 7, 779 iPhone 7+, and 1500 iPhone 6 SE.

I cleared a million in medical bills at 18 with no insurance. My employer put me on the insurance as soon as humanly possible and later my attorney negotiated down those costs. But being 18 and getting a bill that is the size of a text book for a million dollars? I almost passed out. I wish I had saved it. My way to…

At the time I signed up for Obamacare, I had an iPhone. It was an older model, and it was my ONLY way to communicate with people, find and apply for jobs, and keep up with the news. I couldn’t afford internet at home. Fuck you Chaffetz. Fuck you.

$600,000. Six-hundred thousand dollars. That’s how much it cost my uninsured then-future-husband when he was run over by a truck and spent two months in the trauma ICU. The driver that caused the accident was only insured up to $250,000.

ALSO THE 12 POOR PEOPLE WHO WIN THE LOTTERY EACH YEAR NEED TO GET THE FUCK OFF MEDICAID ASAP AND ALSO PAY BACK MONEY

Or to put it another way,

The last medical statement I got was for $500 for one procedure. As long as I don’t need any other medical care for the next two years, his analogy totally works.

rather than getting that new iPhone that they just love and they want to go spend hundreds of dollars on, maybe they should invest it in their own healthcare.

Saw this the other day, and it nails the issue.

Michelle Obama should be the mayor of Chicago.

Its the same child before she was kicked in the face you FUCKING idiot!!!!!!

She’s the same child. Different lighting, very different situation. Same hair, same face.

That’s what is most important to you with this story? JesusChrist..

Funny how they think she fell off a slide and landed exclusively on her face. There are no scratches, bruises or marks on her arms. That’s not consistent with falling down.

Jesus fucking Christ - we’re expected to believe that child did that to herself by falling off a slide?
