The SC decision on the ACA, actually HELPS the GOP

[nat4900]

Look at it this way, right wingers, the 6-3 decision on the ACA helps the GOP's efforts to fight for the White House next year.

Had the ACA been overturned, 6.4 million individuals (2/3 of whom live in red states) would have been irate and the anger would have been squarely directed toward republicans in both congress and the highly biased Supreme Court.

Now republican candidates can basically say that it was just a "bad" decision by the 'Supremes", without having to defend to millions of constituents WHY they are uninsured and the role they previously played in trying to overturn the law.

In addition the GOP doesn't have to admit that they don't have a "Plan B" to fix the ACA now.

Well, that begs the question, if the ACA is such a masterful piece of legislation, why does it already require fixing?

IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY

TO BE ELECTABLE A POLITICIAN HAS TO SWEAR TO PRESERVE AND SUPPORT THE WARFARE/WELFARE POLICE STATE.


OBAMA CARE IS NOW AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE WELFARE STATE UNTIL THE ENTIRE SYSTEM COLLAPSES. AND THEN THEY WILL FIND A SCAPEGOAT. RULE OF THUMB: THE SCAPEGOAT WILL NEVER BE A BUREAUCRAT.

Nope, does not matter. The SCOTUS ruled in my opinion poorly, they made up BS for cover. It should have been kicked back to Congress and left them fix it, which they would have in a fast track fashion. ACA is not going away it screws the hell out of people who don't have company sponsored health care or are poor and not one politician really cares because they have their own good deal. Oh there will be bitchin' and moaning but ACA is here to stay.

If you double the print size and make it even bolder, we might even be impressed.

Gnat....

Gee, you're starting to learn.... Since most Americans hate the ACA and wish it had never been passed, the Republicans can blame the law on Obama and the Democrats right up through the election....

Since you can see that, there's hope for you yet!!!!!

No legislation is perfect.

Not even the Constitution.

It didn't need fixing by Congress but the Republicans decided to try whining to the court that it was "broken".

But it turned out they were wrong.

Chief Justice Roberts even used the same exact words of the dissenting Republican justices in the original ACA case to prove them wrong.

Gotta love the irony of that!

Actually I was impressed because he was screaming so loud that my eardrums are hurting. Maybe he was using a bullhorn.

I go for what is right, not to help poiticians...sinking the country on the off chance republicans will do the right thing is not an option.

He was definitely being intimate with some part of the bull!

And one wonders why the GOP are so upset?

As the OP says it actually helps them.

It didn't need fixed only because it was not being implemented as written. I am not surprised that Roberts repeated his BS reasoning.

 

[Derideo_Te]

Onus is on you to prove that claim with credible substantiation.

Oh, and just in case you weren't aware, Roberts is a Republican who was appointed by Bush jr!.

But only to a point. Because at some point in time, the GOP is either going to have to admit that Obamacare is working or they are going to have to provide a viable alternative, which they have had 5 years time to do.

And Hillary Clinton is in a good position to force the issue.

We should all remember that the ACA was....originally....a republican plan (including the "dreaded" mandate)

But, like Social Security and Medicare of the past decades, something so massive MUST be tweaked....heck, even the Constitution had to be amended (and an amendment is really a euphemistic term for "fixing".)

Calm down ( the bold and font size shows your run-away anger)......

The rest of the industrialized world has health care services, which are a hell of a lot cheaper AND, in some cases, better than ours.

By the time the GOP admit that Obamacare is working they will be claiming the credit for it themselves. After all they could have cut the funding for it and they didn't so that must count as supporting it, right?

Hopefully Hillary will take Obamacare to the next logical level and expand Medicare for everyone who doesn't have employer provided healthcare.

And if she eliminates the ridiculous ban on not being able to negotiate drug prices the savings from that alone will be more than enough to cover the costs.

Needless to say the GOP won't be happy but they never are as indicated by the OP.
