Great, so not only is it not going to make things cheaper for the middle class, it's also going to cost many tens of billions of dollars to upheave ACA and replace it with something that's at best equal to it. Fantastic. |

Honestly, dividing this between states is the worst things to start. It will slowly diminish commerce in those states as populations flock elsewhere. Next, #3 is interesting, because it didn't say that people aren't paying into it. It literally forgets people over. I honestly think the worst part about this is that it will adversely affect poor, uneducated whites, in places like rural Kentucky, Tennessee, etc., which saw enormous growth of insured persons from this demographic. A strange paradox in itself since these people overwhelmingly support the Republican party, and supported Annoying Orange this last election cycle. I will be disappointed but not surprised if Republicans undermine the ACA and pin it on the Obama Administration and Democrats even though they were the ones who deepened the problems just to get re-elected. --- Quote from: Juncoph on January 24, 2017, 12:32:05 AM ---admitting that some parts of obamacare were good after years of smear campaigns and denial what a right wing thing to do --- End quote --- I mean, yes, but what it also does is acknowledge a dependancy. Their constituencies rely on Obamacare. Vox reported these recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aduTfKE5IOM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0FvLkXDKIs |

There was no getting out of paying more. Healthcare is forgetin expensive, one way would be to perhaps regulate the forgetin industry to not be so ass-backward expensive. |
