In this video I break down Trump’s newly announced “Great Healthcare Plan” and why, in my opinion, it sucks—especially if you’re on ACA/Obamacare, or even if you rely on Medicare or Medicaid. The headline idea is that instead of subsidies going to insurance companies, the government would send the money directly to you and me. But I don’t buy it. All roads lead to Rome: the insurance company is getting paid either way. And if you start sending “checks” directly to people, you’re basically inviting even more fraud—people underreport income to get bigger payments—so it turns into a glorified stimulus check instead of fixing the real problem behind ACA premiums. I also call out some of the claims being made, like prescription drugs supposedly being “slashed” by 300–500% (that math doesn’t even exist). Then there’s the part where he blames Obamacare for making insurers rich while, at the same time, we’ve seen policies that benefit corporations and wealthy households and cuts aimed at programs like Medicaid. He also takes a shot at brokers—people like me—acting like broker commissions are the reason premiums are high, when we’re paid peanuts compared to the actual cost drivers. Finally, I talk about what’s missing: real structure, real details, and even clear protections like pre-existing conditions. The only piece that looks decent is pushing price transparency for hospitals/insurers, but overall it’s mostly “concepts” and still has to get through Congress and the Senate.
