Can liberals distinguish between a cost going down and something paid by someone else on their behalf?
Irrationally it depends on the circumstances.
For Obamacare, the ACA, the answer is no, they will not admit to themselves that costs are going up. Despite the fact the cost are almost universally going up. Liberals think the cost is going down if someone else is required to pay for it.
For the Fred Upton amendment it is yes.

Empathy without responsibility is pity with or without charity. Just a thought, not.
Or, it is a mirrored room of irresponsible people? Metaphorically, a masquerade ball.
Think responsibly. Emotions can drive one to nowhere.

I agree with everyone, not just anyone, who agrees that it is possible for anyone to make nothing from nothing of everything.
This perspective is prevalent in society. Just ask everyone what they are "up to".

When I attempt to engage my mental blender in reverse logic even then I cannot come to a conclusion of which came first, the mafia (figuratively and literally) or government (mafia wanna be figuratively and literally). One common thread shared is a history of selling insurance(s).
Note: either sequence implied is only my guess.
