Iowa Dem Complains About Her Taxpayer-Subsidized Obamacare Plan

Rep. Axne: ‘You really don’t want what I have, because I don’t get good insurance.’

WFB:

A congressional Democrat is unhappy with the taxpayer-subsidized health insurance she receives from Obamacare. 

A constituent asked Rep. Cynthia Axne (D., Iowa) why citizens cannot receive the same health insurance as members of Congress. The freshman Democrat responded by saying she was not satisfied with her Obamacare plan.

“There’s a lot of talk about health care reform and our national health care system. Why do we not just get what you get and go on with life?” the constituent asked at an event in Mount Ayr, Iowa, on Saturday. 

“First and foremost, you really don’t want what I have, because I don’t get good insurance,” Axne said. “It’s okay insurance. Just so you know, congresspeople, we have to purchase from the ACA [Affordable Care Act], we purchase from the network.”

Axne told the crowd that her insurance benefits were inferior to those enjoyed by congressional staffers.

“My staff’s insurance is way better than mine,” Axne said. “So I would want better insurance quite honestly for people than what I have.” read more

  1. I ended up with the ObamaCare “Tin Foil Plan.” It doesn’t cover anything medical, but the gubm’nt pays for the end of life bullet instead of billing your family.

  2. Chuckle, the public named it “Obamacare”, because we knew it was going to be a flop and we wanted to hang it around his neck like the rotting albatross it was. Its official name is the “Affordable Care Act”.
