Nobody ever said something worth having would be cheap. Especially once the government got involved with healthcare …
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez decided to make this about millennials which is sort of strange but eh, whatever floats her boat.
When people chastise millennials for not having or delaying starting their families after growing up in a recession, here’s one big reason why: https://t.co/IL0l7bgli5

People are chastising millennials about starting families? Where is this happening? Not to be snotty but this editor is actually AOK with them not starting families before they’re ready. *shrug*
Ummm…
Thank the ACA for reducing coverage and raising costs.

Let’s hear it for the ACA.
Ha!
Gosh, AOC, Democrats claimed they were going to fix this with their magical Obamacare. Granted, she is probably passive-aggressively pushing Medicare For All here but we’re thinking it’s not really the dunk she thought it was.
Think of how many pregnant illegals cross the border to give birth but don’t pay for the medical bills related to that birth. That’s part of what inflates medical costs for everyone else. And yet you want freeeeeeee medical care for all. ?? #moron #MakeAOCBartendAgain

Should we tell her there are no magical money trees?
Or it just means Obamacare sucks – “Hope and Change” was a lie #WalkAwayFromDemocrats

We’ve always known it was a lie.
That’s cheap. https://t.co/0KeSaQ882v pic.twitter.com/jc8vzYjyBG

BUT ORANGE MAN BAD.
Wait, does that work here? Maybe …
It's almost like government interference in private insurance caused higher costs for a lot of people.
The solution is obviously way more government interference. Then, we can ration healthcare and make women wait months to even see whichever doctor is still left.— Rachel ???? (@RaychelTania) September 10, 2019
Right? It’s almost like the government makes things more expensive and less effective.
Responsibility is hard.

True story.
Which is why so many millennials avoid it.
I fully support you not starting a family. Ever.

Ouch.
But fair. We don’t remember asking her to have kids anytime soon so … eh.
Blame it on “climate change “.

So simple it’s painful.
They are worth every penny of that.
