UPDATE on the government shutdown from the House Floor

BREAKING UPDATE on the government shutdown from the House Floor.

The REAL reason Democrats have been keeping the government shutdown is for Big Pharma

What happened with Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act is health insurance companies bought the hospitals and the doctors, they then created these HMO plans. Since they own both the hospitals, the doctors and the insurance companies they raised prices to astronomical levels

They don’t actually pay those rates because again, they own everything, they’re really paying themselves. So essentially they’re paying nothing, but the taxpayer IS paying those rates for everyone who’s on these Medicaid and Medicare plans

Democrats want this racket to continue for their Big Pharma donors so they’re keeping the government shutdown until they get the funding for the health insurance companies

“It’s unfortunate what we are having to deal with as far as access to healthcare right now. I don't know how that would be fixed. And so that's kind of what was the next step in the hearing is, how do we fix this? And those questions are, are largely unanswered right now.”
