24 million?/---- Obozocare was designed to fail so Dems could usher in single payer. Trouble is it failed too soon and Hildabeast lost.
How did Obamacare fail? 24 million people have insurance now who didn't have it before. The failure is the Conservatives' who took seven fucking years to come up with the shitty AHCA.
Yep. I never expected anything from the Republicans other than tweaking ACA to better benefit the insurance industry. As the Democrats have been so proud to point out, ACA was Republican style legislation - ie a corporate feeding trough. Don't expect the Republicans to radically alter it. And they certainly won't repeal it outright.
Right, because they have no alternative plan. Because no alternative exists aside from returning to pre-existing conditions and rescission, or going full single payer. That's why in the seven fucking years Conservatives had to come up with an ACA replacement, they have nothing. Obamacare did exactly what it was supposed to do; show how pointless and costly for-profit insurance is. If there was a Public Option in Obamacare, we would have come to this revelation much sooner. But this country is so determined to do things the hard way, and thus here we are.
Yf course there is.
No, there really isn't. If there was, surely Conservatives would have come up with something in the last 7 years they were vowing to repeal the law. Unless you're now saying that they were full of shit that entire time. In which case, why even listen to them today? Why take anything they say seriously? 7 years of promising to repeal Obamacare, but no replacement plan to speak of? That's just irresponsible.
I've mostly been trying to wake people up to the corporatism inherent in ACA. But you persist with your premise that I'm a Republican. I've told you, that's not the case.
As long as there exists a profit motive tied to health insurance, you will never be able to get rid of corporatism in health insurance. That is why I advocate for single payer, Medicare-for-all. There is nothing that privatizing the administration of reimbursements does to improve or enhance your care. Not one thing. All it does is restrict your access to health care and protect profits of drug companies at your expense. It's a complete rip-off.
Bingo, you nailed it. Big Government loving power hungry pukes come from both sides of the isle. Like John McCain.Republicans haven't come up with an alternative because they don't want one. They want more power for Congress, just like Democrats, and ACA delivers.
/---- Paying cash because it beats the long waiting lines back home with rationed care. Why are you so obtuse?/---- And yet they come from around the world for our inferior healthcare. Imagine that.
No...only the wealthy do that. And say, when they do come here to get health care, are they enrolling in Blue Cross or Aetna? Or are they paying cash?
/---- Oh so no Mexican women cross the border to have their babies in the US? They get two benefits, the best natal care in the world and their bambino is an automatic US citizen. Just the rich folks doing it. Right Spanky?/---- And yet they come from around the world for our inferior healthcare. Imagine that.

America. THE most incarcerated and surveilled population in the history of empire, with the shittiest, most expensive and inefficient healthcare system on the planet amongst advanced post industrial nations. We choose to occupy the planet to further the interests of Wall Street and the "job creator" class instead.
Amended how?Boehner: Trump's presidency so far is mostly 'a complete disaster'
But the Repubs are power hungry and will screw the country, rather than admit the ACA will work well if amended.
Which is exactly why it should be repealed and not "replaced".

It should be replaced with single payer...Lets be honest, we need to stop being the only nation on earth that is first world not to have it. Period.
