ICYMI, Rep. Jason Chaffetz pissed off a lot of people on Tuesday when he said people may have to choose between buying health care and a new iPhone.
And even a full day later, people are still dragging him for it online.
Good morning. Where may I trade my iPhone for a bone marrow transplant?
People are pretty astounded by his suggestion, and are turning to humor to express themselves.
Is there a website where I can trade my iPhone for health care insurance?
After all, big decisions are at stake here.
I'm in the market for a new phone and need advice. Should I get.... -IPhone 7 -Samsung Galaxy -Google Pixel -Health insurance for my kids
And real questions need to be answered.
OH: If I give up my iPhone to get healthcare how will I call the doctor?
Some said they were SOL. "When you're dying and need chemotherapy but the new iPhone 7 Plus has a dual lens 12 megapixel rear-facing camera."

Others relied on classic images from history.
Iconic image of woman deciding between healthcare and that sweet new iphone she wanted.
WWJD?
"Oh no, not you buddy. I saw you put your iPhone away a minute ago. Out of the line!"
Lady Liberty is so screwed.
That time the Statue of Liberty went dark after choosing between paying her iPhone bill or her electric bill.
Others used classic images from TV.
Think of all the pain, violence and betrayal that could have been avoided if Walt had just sold his iPhone
What could health care cost — one iPhone?
whenever some clueless rich fuck suggests ppl can't afford basic needs like a house or healthcare bc they have an i… https://t.co/FINbs5Jb83
Some trolled the Trump family.
I can't believe you stupid poor people bought an iPhone. No health care for you. #TrumpCare
"You bought an iPhone so now you don't deserve health care, you disgusting pauper."
You bought an iPhone so now you don't deserve health care, you disgusting pauper.
Or just expressed frustration with the GOP's logic.
GOP to poor people: iPhone or healthcare. Choose one. GOP to coal companies: It is your god-given right to dump toxic sludge in streams.
After all, Chaffetz's own health insurance is covered by taxpayer funds.
The American dream: Being able to afford either an iPhone or health care while @jasoninthehouse gets both for free.
Finally, yes, Canada, we get it. Thanks. Thanks a lot.
I don't mean to brag America, but in Canada we can have a iPhone and healthcare 🇨🇦
