I did have DSL which crawled along at 3 MBS. It was all that was available in this rural area. I suppose many other DUers are still waiting for higher speeds. Next time take a screen shot and put that in your post. Maybe some other people have suggestions. I enjoyed your the post. So true.

But it was reduced to approximately 300 KB. I don't use IMGbb, but you could ask the GURU's at Computer help forum. I've had help from them. In the past I've posted a direct link for an image.

the AHCA and the BCRA. Problem: they were awful

This Wikipedia articles covers both the AHCA (American Health Care Act) and the BCRA (Better Care Reconciliation Act)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Health_Care_Act_of_2017

H.R. 1628, American Health Care Act of 2017, Cost Estimate, CBO, 5/24/17
https://www.cbo.gov/publication/52752
would increase the number of people who are uninsured by 23 million in 2026 relative to current law.


H.R. 1628, Better Care Reconciliation Act of 2017, Cost Estimate, CBO, 6/26/17
https://www.cbo.gov/publication/52849
A little bit better: leaving 22 million uninsured in 2026 relative to current law.

This is the one that Senator John McCain famously turned thumbs down on. Otherwise it would have become law.

Both can only be described as acts of American Genocide. We need to call the GOP the American Genocide Party.

And no, emergency rooms are not comprehensive health care -- they do just enough to stabilize you and then give you a fistful of prescriptions that you can't afford to fill, and a bunch of referrals to doctors and specialists that you can't afford to see if you are like most uninsured. And I'm not talking about some aberrant ones that have been in a news, wheeling someone out onto the sidewalk and leaving them there. No, no, no, I'm talking about ALL of them. ALL.

The magapub plan is to not get sick, and if you do - die quickly.

They.

I thought, yeah he has a health care plan alright. It's to meet with his heart doctors weekly. Have another doctor follow him around in case he has another stroke. Check his BP regularly, inject meds as needed. Have a donor on call and then pretend he's really not sick.

Oh wait, that's pedo Trump's healthcare plan for himself. You wanted a healthcare plan for the other 350 million or so Americans?

Well that's don't get sick and if you do get sick die quickly. The American healthcare plan is just a bunch of filthy-rich elites organized into death panels.
