President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill officially passes the House

[sahgwa]

That provision was removed in the Senate and is not part of the bill that was passed.

Thank God!
Some sense in the end.
There WAS a lot of state push back.

Speaking of crypto this is all related to the BBB.

Question is WHO made this money and where did they put it?

Wow...crypto mover and shaker (?) I wonder who moved their crypto?

"Goodbye to gold in the US – Germany, France, and the Netherlands pressure the United States to recover their gold reserves amid growing financial tensions"

"It may seem unimportant because we already move through digital money, but it remains a symbol of stability and economic power (even more so with the issue of wars…). That’s why regaining control over it has become a priority, both as a guarantee against future crises and for independence. No one wants to depend on the US."

When you actually read the Big Beautiful Bill “Cuts to Medicaid” you’ll realize every Democrat and mainstream media outlet is lying through their teeth No American would ever be against any of this, here are the facts “Here is just the first page of the cuts:

-Cut number 1, saving $35 billion over 10 years. Limit federal health program eligibility based on citizenship status. That's just saying that people who are here illegally don't get to use Medicaid. It's something you have told us isn't happening anyway, so you obviously agree with that cut.

- Cut number 2, eliminate Medicare coverage of bad debt, saving 42 billion over 10 years. Do you know what bad debt is? You probably don't, so let me explain it to you. Bad debt is where you have a debt with a hospital beyond what your coverage pays. So like let's say you have private health insurance. Now, your health insurance is going to pay their piece and then you have your leftover piece. Now if you don't pay that, that is what's known as bad debt. Now under no circumstances will your private health insur cover your bad debt. However, if you have Medicaid, the American taxpayer will cover up to 65% of that debt. Now, how hospitals use that to their advantage is they up the prices for people on Medicaid, therefore making that bad debt increase dramatically and the American taxpayer pays 65% of it. All this would say is that we're not going to do that anymore. Therefore hospitals can't charge more for people on Medicaid because they're not going to make any extra money from it. Who the is opposed to that?

- Cut number 3: Next Medicare site neutrality set to save $148 billion over the 10 years. That one's actually really simple. All that says is the hospitals can't charge people on Medicare and Medicaid more. It just says they have to charge people on Medicare and Medicaid the same prices they charge people on private health insurance or cash. Is there anyone who's opposed to that? No, I didn't think so. Now, from just those 3, we're looking at $200 plus billion dollars in savings. Now, I imagine if I said we're going to cut $200 billion for Medicaid, y' all would freak the out. However, when you do a little bit of research, when you actually look into the topic that you're bitching about, making tiktoks about, you can see that. That $200 billion worth of cuts you agree with, Like, I just showed you one quarter of all the cuts they want to make. And here's the thing. If you remotely have f*cking common sense, you don't disagree with any of them.“

When you actually look at the facts of that bill, you see it's full of bullshit. The people who wrote that are either lying or don't understand how the system works.
Let's break down those three "cuts" with some common sense:

1. Cut #1: Eligibility for citizenship. You're dead wrong. People who are here illegally already don't get federal Medicaid money. The only thing they get is emergency care, which is legally and morally required. This "cut" isn't about that; it's about cutting off lawful residents who have been paying taxes. It's not a simple cut, it's a gut punch to legal residents who have followed the rules.
   
2. Cut #2: Medicare bad debt. This isn't a "Medicaid" issue. It's a Medicare rule that helps hospitals get reimbursed for a small portion of unpaid bills from Medicare patients. The claim that hospitals "up the prices" to take advantage of this is a lie. Medicare and Medicaid prices are set by the government, and the money helps keep hospitals afloat. Cutting this would not stop hospitals from "charging more." It would just hurt the hospitals that serve the most low-income and elderly patients, making them go broke.
   
3. Cut #3: Medicare site neutrality. This isn't about making hospitals charge the same as private insurance. It's about making different parts of the hospital charge the same rate for the same service. This sounds logical, but the reason for the different rates is to help fund the hospital's other critical services like the emergency room and trauma centers. This "cut" would destroy the funding model for many rural hospitals and force them to close.
   

So, when you say "no American would ever be against this," you're completely wrong. Anyone with a fucking common sense knows that these cuts are not a simple fix. They are a dangerous gamble that would reduce care for millions and bankrupt hospitals, especially in rural America. It's not the media lying, it's the bill that's full of lies.
