Congressman suggests poor Americans should give up iPhones for health care
- masonic 10y agotheverge.com's clickbait title drops "new" ("a new iPhone") from the quote. Anyway, Obama himself made a similar statement, only more broad in scope (give up cable TV and/or cellphone in general): To quote Obama: "Knowing you can offer your family the security of health care -- that’s priceless. Now you can do it for the cost of your cable bill. Probably less than your cellphone bill. (Laughter and applause.)"[1] [1] https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2013/09/26/remarks-president-affordable-care-act https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2013/0...
