  1. Sure, all of these Iowa RINOs are bad, but Senator Susan Collins of Maine is evil, too. This RINO voted against Trumpcare in 2017, the American Healthcare Act. with Trump’s Age-Based tax credits to purchase Individual Insurance. Now, Anthem Blue Cross, eight years later, is charging part-time Portland City workers over $1,600 monthly to insure their families!

    I wrote this today on Gateway Pundit. I didn’t say Creston, Iowa; teachers pay $1,678 monthly to insure one child because I didn’t want Iowa to look that stupid.

    Senator Collins (R-ME) votes for Obamacare, and now Portland, Maine City part-time employees are paying $382 weekly for Anthem Blue Cross Family insurance! That is $1,655 monthly. Full-time employees are paying $853 per month. Here is proof on page 12 https://www.employeeconnects.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/CityOfPortland_2024_BenefitsGuide_FINAL.pdf

    Trumpcare by Allstate for a 29-year-old couple with three children in Portland zip code 04101 is $430 monthly with a ZERO deductible and a 3-year Rate Lock! Why are full-time employees paying over double and part-time employees paying FOUR TIMES MORE?

    Trump’s Age-Based Tax Credits of $2,000 per person in the 2017 American Healthcare Act would provide this family with four people X $2,000 = $8,000 Trumpcare Family Tax Credit to buy insurance. Trump would pay 100% of this family’s Annual Premium (AP) of $5,160 with a $2,840 UNUSED Tax Credit that Trump deposits into the family’s HSA at the bank at $236 monthly!

    Susan Collins and BRIETBART were against Trump’s Tax Credits in 2017! Trump would pay 100% of this Portland family’s premiums AND deposit $236 monthly in their tax-free HSA at the bank! The Gateway Pundit would be slow, but it’s TIME they did a story about Republican Healthcare Reform from Milton Friedman from 1992. Tax credits for insurance purchases, and Milton called tax-free HSAs Medical IRAs because the first HSA wasn’t enrolled or invented yet.

    Instead, the Gateway Pundent NEVER does a story on Republican Reform, so Anthem Blue Cross, the world’s 3rd Largest insurance company, is RAPING Maine taxpayers, employees, and the Federal Treasury, which loses 40% of the REDICULOUS $37,000 Annual Premiums (AP) because Employer Insurance is deductible for Income Tax (24%) and Payroll tax of (15.3%) or 40%! It costs the treasury $37,000 X 40% = $14,800 Annual Federal Tax Loss! The smaller $8,000 Trumpcare Tax Credit saves the treasury $6,800! Of course, Anthem loses $37,000 Annually! Susan loves Anthem more than Maine families! (Why does Susan want part-time workers paying $1,655 monthly?)
