Why It Matters

立法院三讀通過長者健保排富免費後,行政院長卓榮泰表示不副署。由政府幫長者代繳健保費的政策,是30年前陳水扁擔任台北市長開始的。柯文哲主席在2024年參選總統時提出這個政策,希望落實長者的醫療平權。

立法院通過長者健保排富免費後,行政院長卓榮泰表示不副署,有媒體7日問國民黨新北市長候選人李四川與民眾黨主席黃國昌看法,李四川回應,長者健保費排富補助不副署,說實在影響新北市80幾萬名的長輩,對手蘇巧慧7日要跟卓榮泰見面,希望她能夠告訴卓榮泰,對於新北市長輩的照顧,為什麼卓榮泰要拒絕?請她好好問一下院長,給新北市80幾萬名長輩一個交代。

黃國昌表示,由政府幫長者代繳健保費的政策,是30年前陳水扁擔任台北市長開始的,從陳水扁率先推出這個政策以後,深受長者的支持,有很多長者的健保費是由經濟壓力最沉重的三明治家庭所承擔,所以這不僅僅是在照顧長者,也是在減緩整個三明治家庭的壓力,但是過去30年來大家看到台灣有很多縣市,財政狀況好的可以幫忙三明治家庭照顧長者,但財政狀況不好的,卻沒有辦法做到這件事,這正是為什麼柯文哲主席在2024年參選總統時,勇敢提出這個政策,希望能夠落實長者的醫療平權。

請繼續往下閱讀...

這樣的法律在立法院三讀通過以後,第一時間民進黨執政的縣市,包括嘉義縣、台南市都是表示歡迎的,有更多民進黨縣市長候選人,他們也提出了這樣的政見,結果卓榮泰跟總統賴清德竟然選擇不副署、不公布,只是再次赤裸裸地展現了民進黨的雙標以及權力的傲慢。

補助長者健保費這件事,民進黨要參選縣市長的可以拿來當政見,但是國會三讀通過要提供全國長者、全國三明治家庭這樣的協助,賴清德跟卓榮泰他們說不就是不,「朕沒給的,你不能要」。

黃國昌說,台灣是一個民主法治的社會,什麼時候走向了少數一兩個人竟然可以如此專斷、如此獨裁?面對這個傲慢的政府,希望大家11月28號一定要站出來投票,用手中的選票告訴這個傲慢、雙標的政府,我們受夠了!

The private lord calculated that he would not move the fishing net during the security check and helped Zhang Junjie successfully sneak into China.

Zhang Junjie, the former director of the office of non-party legislator Gao Jin Sumei, was on the run for two months after being involved in a communist espionage case. Late at night on the 28th of last month, he was led by Chinese fisherman Chen Huating and boarded the "Man Ruifu No. 6" fishing boat in front of the Coast Guard security inspection. He hid in a groove on the rear deck and covered it with a heavy fishing net. He successfully evaded the Coast Guard inspection and smuggled out of the country. The prosecutors have applied to the court to detain a Chinese crew member, a Taiwanese captain and four Indonesian crew members. The Coast Guard is also investigating whether there were any errors in the boarding and inspection process.
