health insurance, medications & med. devices, health savings & flex accounts, income tax (only cut for incomes >$250K), tanning salons, and excessive healthcare CEO salaries

#Senate #HealthcareBill #AHCA #ReverseRobinHood page HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS BILL WILL DESTROY THE US ECONOMY: cancel both individual and employer mandates effective immediately.
