Class is in SESSION: Georgetown Law Prof uses progressive 'preexisting conditions' argument to SCHOOL Ted Lieu for trashing the unvaccinated

Remember when Democrats pretended Sarah Palin was insane for talking about Death Panels with government-sponsored healthcare? When they railed against Republicans about preexisting conditions and how it was EVIL not to just cover them?

Guess they’ve changed their tune with their slight, razor-thin majority.

That or Ted Lieu is just a raging butt-hole.

If you are going to engage in riskier actions that increase health care costs and health care burdens on all of us, then you should be the one paying for the increased risk. https://t.co/XmIbyxYe5r

Huh.

This is the new progressive hotness?

Per Georgetown Professor, Randy Barnett:

Old progressive hotness 👉 “Premiums based on health history or preexisting health conditions of insured individuals are not allowed with the Affordable Care Act changes.”https://t.co/c4DjvfCnjO

New progressive hotness 👇 https://t.co/tcLHzWOrPz

SCHOOL IS IN SESSION.

But wait, there’s more.

So much more.

Does this include obese people who don't diet and exercise to lose weight? How about members of the LGBT community who do not practice safe sex?

Are the hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants crossing our southern border every month vaccinated? 🤔

So you want to repeal 0bamaCare? Because 0bamaCare stopped exactly this. It required insurance companies to stop pricing their plans based on exactly the criteria you mention. Because the Left was collectively outraged at such criteria.

It’s only been about a dozen years…

Let’s repeal Obamacare.

We’re good with that.

This type of mentality is why California is so expensive. Regulation and taxation, the Democrat way.

Thank you and every other progressive using COVID to doom socialized medicine in this country.

What happened to "healthcare is a right"?
Your type pivots on a dime when concerns control issues, come into play.

There are lots of high risk activities that affect health care costs. Should we start a list and rate them so we can figure out how much extra people should pay for their health care?
