“The States do not have to take or support or pay for Obamacare or anything else from Washington DC,” rightwing firebrand Richard Mack exhorted his fans on his website. Struggling with medical bills, he added on his GoFundMe page, “It is difficult and humbling to say that we need your help, but we do.”
Daily Kos contributor Joan McCarter nailed it when she responded, “It’s fine if Mack wants to skip that whole insurance thing, and it’s fine if his followers help him out now. It’s not fine that Mack wants everyone else in the country to be put in the same untenable, horrible, crippling situation of having both poor health and overwhelming medical bills.”
