Democrats weren't just fighting for Obamacare subsidies;
24 million people have Obamacare, 22 million get subsidies. 57% of the people who get subsidies live in red districts.
Costs are going to double and triple for those people.
Older adults and seniors risk losing coverage since the subsidies enabled a 50% reduction in uninsured people ages 50 - 64.
Obamacare provided insurance to older, sicker, people with pre-existing conditions to get health insurance, so now these older, sicker, people with pre-existing conditions are going to show up at emergency rooms all across the country.
The CBO estimates that 4 million more people will become uninsured.
Increased uninsured rates will lead to higher Medicare costs and strains on hospitals and state and local governments, people not on Obamacare could see their costs rise also.
A report from Mercer said that 59% of employers who provide insurance are going to make cost-cutting changes to their insurance.
Not renewing the Obamacare subsidies will have a ripple effect that will affect all of us.
That's what Democrats were fighting for, don't want to hear about how 9 rogue Democrats made the right choice.
