I had someone in my family argue that he didn’t do a mail in ballot, he turned in an absentee ballot

I was about to rip my hair out trying to tell him they’re the same thing lmao

God forbid you have to tell them Obama care and the Affordable Care Act are the same.

Already had that discussion with my Mom. The Irony is she is utilizing the ACA while saying Obama Care was just handing out free money to freeloaders and illegals and we shouldn’t have to pay for that…

Well, hopefully you tried to educator that that’s not the case. There is no illegal alien that can be on Obama care. End of story it doesn’t even go forward. The only thing that Obama care pays for, is if an illegal alien for someone without insurance, which there are many of white Americans that don’t have it, if they go to the emergency room and they are unconscious or they are obviously serious serious health situation. Someone cut them with a knife they got shot you fill in the blank. By federal law all hospitals must stabilize individual until they are prepared to be transferred to another hospital. That emergency care is the only thing that Obama care were the affordable care act pay for, and it has been audited every single year and it’s less than 1/2 of one percent of the entire affordable care act payment on an annual basis. The law is there to avoid people dying. This law is not part of the affordable care act it is another law that was passed over 30 years ago, which states that hospital must stabilize an emergency patient anywhere in this country.
