Despite living in the USA, I'm not as riled up as some others about the recent news of the AHCA replacing the ACA. It's because I'm jaded and tired of shouting about terrible healthcare already. Because I make slightly above a McDonald's entry level hourly wage, I "make too much money" to qualify for any assistance from ACA, Medicaid, etc. for insurance.

There's a bit of a safety net there for emergencies, sure. When I got a bad tooth infection, I was able to get a loan from a friend and get it extracted. But that doesn't apply to long-term or preventative care.
Like this dead-feeling lump in my leg that's been there for a couple years. What is it? I don't know, and I can't afford to find out.

I've been against the ACA from the beginning, because we need *healthcare*, *directly*, not some form of legalized gambling funneling money to fat middlemen.

As I said all the stupid stuff that AHCA brings in is absolutely nothing new to me, I don't lose anything at all. I'm just cynical and jaded and having a bit of schadenfreude over people who thought ACA was perfect possibly getting dropped down to STILL BETTER OFF THAN I AM
