Calling their bluff: A Seattle doctor pegs what the GOP health bill is really about: "Better Care for Millionaires"
Here "“I have to start off by, I guess, congratulating all the millionaires on the incredible gift they are about to get,” said Dr. Ben Danielson, senior medical director at another low-income clinic, Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic in Seattle, at a news conference Friday.
"I always wondered what you get for the person who has everything, and now I know; it’s cutting benefits to young children, poor families, the infirm, the elderly.”
Now that’s how you call the Better Care Act’s bluff. Following the good doctor’s lead, I humbly submit a two-word title amendment to name it what it really is. Call it the Better Care for Millionaires Act."
