That's only if the bill is determined to be deficit neutral by the cbo and doesn't have poo poo unrelated to the budget in it (the bill probably has both)

Either way, there's no way this bill has 50 senate votes behind it

according to this analysis which apparently has a decent track record, only (lol) 4 million are estimated to lose coverage with this bill, and also lists some things that might improve

please tell me why it's wrong so that i can continue saying that the GOP is a death cult

technically i wouldn't lose health care under the house plan b/c i'm unemployed and on a medicaid plan but i've been diagnosed with things under this that means i could never, ever get a job paying above the poverty line in the future and be able to afford healthcare

Yeah, but they already have multiple Republican Senators saying they won't vote for it and the Republican Senate leadership saying they're going to toss it and write their own bill.

Can they just throw out everything and just use the title and put their own stuff in it? kind of like a Ms word template?

Actually, insulin prices are already super high because of price fixing between Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, and a third company I forget off the top of my head. So you can't really buy more than your prescription, because out-of-pocket it's something like $150 a pen, rather than $15 a pen. But if you're smart and careful (and get some exercise and eat right) you can set aside some of your daily insulin.
