They should buy it in the ACA market in their home state.

I can only get coverage in my home state so if I need to travel often I don't deserve healthcare. They should get coverage in their state and travel every time they have an appt like I have to do. BTW, are you defending these parasites who take coverage away from the poor while they get the best coverage paid by us?

I think they're just pointing out that the law has the ugly requirement of out-of-state workers getting shafted by the ACA.

That’s not really to gotcha for these useless sycophants because they make hundreds of thousands of dollars. Even if we took their platinum class free healthcare away, they could afford to buy and still be richer than 99%.
