is that obamacare? [laughter] bill: also, watters asking the folks what they know about their health care. probably 90% of americans don t know. bill: caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. bill: hi, i am bill o reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. how the obamacare brawl affects you. that is a subject of this evening s talking points memo. classic left-right brawl. president obama and the democrats wanted to provide health care to americans who could not or would not pay for it. republican party and president trump don t want to do that. so, the battle lines are drawn. here are the facts. 81% of all americans who signed up for the obamacare health plan will receive government assistance of some kind this year. some will have their entire
essentially want out of the health care business and will send federal money to the individual states, so, they can decide who gets what. but the medicaid tax dollars will be kept. liberals hate that. they hated. they want the feds to dictate health insurance costs and who gets free or subsidized insurance. so, that is essentially where we are. the key question for you, the american citizen, as will your health care premiums go up or down once obamacare is history? today, the congressional budget office said that under the republican plan, the feds would spend about $337 billion last subsidizing health care over the next ten years. but about 21 million more americans will not have health insurance by the year 2,020. again, that would most likely be their own choice, not to have insurance.
i got to go. [laughter] snap out of it. do you like your health care? yeah. no. why not? it is really confusing. i love it. it is satisfying. it s satisfying? i think i have it, right? is that obamacare? [laughs] i don t know what you have. go wait a minute. do you have obamacare? yes. how does obamacare were? how does it work? don t you be looking at me so cockeyed because i don t want to have to shake your head up to straighten it out. good question. probably 90% of america don t know. that is correct. explain to me how it works. you put in the amount youed make per month, the family you are covering, then, they give you options that make sense for what you are able to pay per month. you enroll and you see what kind of package you get ordeal. i don t call it obamacare. i call it the affordable care act. and my understanding is
suggesting he was being wiretapped by the president, which is sort of an outgrowth of all of this, that has created a big stir. so, the beat goes on. bill: it does. brit hume, everybody. watters on deck. obamacare, very confusing, as you know. we wanted to find out how much you guys really know about it. watters is next.
health, cigna, are pulling out. aetna. because they don t have the choice. because of the government mandate. what we want to do is allow competition and choice to exist so they can offer more options for the american people. will those companies make more money under the plan or less? i don t know the answer to that. at the end of the day, they re pulling out of market after market, leaving the american people with fewer and fewer choices. last i checked i think many are doing pretty well. but it s the american people and its patients who are losing under the current system. i think there s a way you can do both. hunter? yes. we ve seen the white house and secretary price push back on calling this health care bill trump care. does anything need to change for the president to be comfortable putting his name on the bill? i don t think the obama administration didn t label it obamacare. they called it the aca. this is the american health care act. the president is proud of it. th
