a
couple
of
important
points
first
of
all
the
subsidies
are
not
going
away
and
again
this
is
an
enhanced
subsidy
on
top
of
the
subsidy
that
everyone
already
has
and
again
even
if
it
had
been
extended
with
with
for
three
years
as
as
hakeem
jeffries
proposed
with
no
reforms
they
Mike Johnson (Speaker of the House)

would
these
these
same
people
who
are
achieving
that
and
having
that
enhanced
subsidy
would
only
get
five
point
seven
percent
of
savings
the
point
is
everyone
's
premiums
are
going
up
because
the
democrats
broke
the
system
the
very
people
who
are
trying
to
continue
to
subsidize

it
and
put
more
taxpayer
dollars
on
a
broken
system
are
the
ones
that
created
the
mess
we
are
coming
into
the
middle
of
that
to
reform
the
system
to
look
at
the
root
causes
the
root
problems
of
why
everyone's
premiums
are
going
up
and
yes
that
takes
a
lot
of
hard
work
it
takes
a

00:45.947
lot
of
consensus
building
here
especially
at
a
time
when
we
have
razor
thin
margins
and
no
one
on
the
democrat
side
wants
to
do
anything
to
actually
help
the
problem
they
they
they
don't
want
a
solution
to
this
they
want
an
issue
for
the
upcoming
election
and
they
have
put
all
Mike Johnson (Speaker of the House)
01:00.787
their
chips
on
one
one
slice
in
the
roulette
wool
rule
on
the
roulette
wheel
and
their
their
their
whole
game
is
to
try
to
blame
healthcare
costs
on
republicans
which
is
which
is
comical
when
you
look
at
the
facts
they
are
the
ones
that
work
it
they're
the
ones
that
continue
to
Mike Johnson (Speaker of the House)
01:15.467
add
to
it
and
that's
that's
what
we're
trying
to
address
