1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,960
Now he and the Republican Congress want to cut
Social

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:07,520
Security, raise the age, and cut Medicare
while they cut

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,240
taxes for the very wealthy again.

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,320
You know, I got a better idea.

5
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:14,800
I'm going to protect Social Security and
Medicare along with

6
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,120
burning other members of Congress to make sure
the wealthy

7
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,640
begin to pay their fair share to keep these
programs

8
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:21,840
solvent.

9
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,080
But drug companies have increased prices for
asthma drugs up

10
00:00:26,080 --> 00:00:29,040
to eight times more than the original cost.

11
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:33,040
Another company sells an inhaler for $9 in
Germany.

12
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:37,840
$9 in Germany, and paid $286 here in the
United

13
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:38,400
States.

14
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:43,360
Nine bucks in Germany, same outfit, same
company, same device.

15
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:49,360
And so 30 times more than mega Republicans in
Congress.

16
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,520
They want to quote, I love their word, they
love.

17
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,080
They want to terminate the Affordable Care
Act.

18
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:55,920
I love it, terminate.

19
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,680
Today, 21 million Americans are covered
through the Affordable Care

20
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,440
Act, nine million more than when I took
office.

21
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,080
We enacted tax credits to save an average of
$800

22
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,320
per person per year, reducing health care
premiums for millions

23
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:15,280
of working families whose coverage you have
coverage under the

24
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:16,640
Affordable Care Act.

25
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,360
These tax credits though expire can only get
it for

26
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:20,720
the through this year.

27
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,240
And I'm calling on Congress to make tax
credits permanent,

28
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,480
permanent for this process.
