Affordable Care Act - Revelations!

VOTE NOVEMBER 5TH! 

Beaufort folks – I am asking for your vote for one of the 3 open commissioner seats!

The Affordable Healthcare Act lives on! 

Efforts to kill it have failed time and again. Here’s the deal: In2019 5,088 Carteret County residents were enrolled. 94% received financial aid to help cover monthly premiums which averaged just $74 per month! 60% qualified for cost-sharing reductions! It lowered deductibles and co-pays/coinsurance. ACA, dear hearts – It is A DEAL! Talk it up. Tell your friends!

MEDICARE FOR ALL:

 An increasingly bumpy (harrowing) road for Democratic presidential candidates. ‘This is going to cause down-ballot damage’: Liz Warren's $20 trillion health plan fails to quiet critics. The Massachusetts senator’s MASSIVE ‘Medicare for All’ proposal is new ammunition for her rivals. Down-ballot damage is predicted in purple states. This one-size-fits-all big government-run plan that cancels private health insurance and raises taxes – NOT POPULAR even among many Democrats. 

MAJOR BLOWBACK: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, also let it be known Friday that she’s not on board. "I'm not a big fan of Medicare for All," Pelosi told Bloomberg TV.


Brexit or No Brexit – London, UK. BREXIT is causing chaos for UK, Euro companies:

Now, almost every Brit hates it. So many did not know ‘what they were voting for’ (Like voting for Trump)…….The super-rich are preparing to immediately leave the UK if Jeremy Corbyn becomes prime minister, fearing they will lose billions of pounds if the Labor leader does “go after” the wealthy elite with new taxes, possible capital controls and a clampdown on private schools. Lawyers and accountants for the UK’s richest families said they had been deluged with calls from millionaire and billionaire clients asking for help and advice on moving countries, shifting their fortunes offshore and making early gifts to their children to avoid the Labor leader’s threat to tax all inheritances above £125,000. The wealthy see potential taxes imposed by Jeremy Corbyn as a bigger threat than Brexit. UK’s Brexit has set the future of the UK’s and the European markets in a state of turmoil and confusion. NO ONE knows – for sure - what is going to happen.

The State of the Donald Dumpster: 

‘Bad’ and getting worser and worser. Experts on Trump's conduct: ….' Plainly an abuse of power, plainly impeachable'…. Republicans may argue Trump’s actions were not impeachable – but scholars say it’s a solid example of a high crime. Ol’ Ken’s prediction: One, extremely influential ‘former’, high profile person (maybe even present staffer) is going to come out of the bushes, saying: “YO! I will testify before the House Judiciary Comm.” John Bolton (if subpoenaed). Don McGhan, president’s former WH attorney?


Further Prediction: 

Trump will not run for president in 2020. He will announce: “I have made America Great Again! Done all the great work that needs to be done! He will ride off in the sunset to Mar a Lago to retirement – where he will be arrested in the first week and thrown into jail, charged with 30-40 counts of criminal acts: Embezzling from his now-defunct charity. For money laundering in lock-step with Russian Oligarchs. For being a traitor, under the direction and control of Vladimir Putin. Lil’ Donald, Eric, and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, join him in jail..awaiting trial.


2020 Elected President? 

Maybe ‘some Democrat’, or possibly, Michael Bloomberg. My old trope: “Democrats will find a way to snatch defeat from the sure jaws of victory’ – seems be getting ready for print. 12 candidates remain. Kamala Harris is shuttering her offices. Beto bailed. My man Joe Biden was forced to appeal to ‘Big Money’, as he fell to 3rd in fundraising behind Liz Warren and the Bern.
