The Republican Healthcare Plan

Republicans think people aren't entitled to food—but ARE entitled to very expensive campaigns against the Affordable Care Act:

Since September, Americans for Prosperity, a group financed in part by the billionaire Koch brothers, has spent an estimated $20 million on television advertising that calls out House and Senate Democrats by name for their support of the Affordable Care Act.

...Building on the success, the deep-pocketed organization disclosed on Tuesday that it was expanding its Senate efforts with $1.8 million in airtime to attack Democratic House members running for the Senate in Iowa and Michigan, where Democrats are viewed as holding an early advantage. The group was also moving into Montana, a state where Democrats may struggle to defend a seat, on behalf of a Republican House member running for the Senate.

...The group has poured millions of dollars — amounts more typically spent during the closing stages of Senate races — into attacks on the health care stances of Democratic senators such as Kay Hagan of North Carolina, Mary L. Landrieu of Louisiana, Mark Begich of Alaska and Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire.

What if the millions and millions of dollars that conservatives are spending to defeat Democrats who support the Affordable Care Act were instead poured into charitable organizations that cover healthcare for uninsured people? I mean, that's the conservative principle, right? Charity should fill in the gaps, not government.

Ha ha just kidding. They don't have any real principles. They only have talking points about charitable giving in communities while they scream "BOOTSTRAPS!" directly into the face of anyone who actually needs help.

They'd rather spend millions of dollars defeating Democrats using healthcare as a wedge issue than actually providing healthcare to anyone.

The Republican Healthcare Plan remains and will forever be FOAD.
