GOP: Obamacare ---> Repeal and Replace (with nothing)

[rdean]

We already know what Republicans want to replace Obamacare with. That would be nothing.

Remember, under the GOP and Bush, medical bills were the number one cause of bankruptcy. Republicans desperately want to return to those days of handing insurance companies money hand over fist.

We know what Republicans want to do with Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. Why on earth would any thinking person believe they would help middle class America or the poor now? What could possibly have changed? Only the GOP could applaud having no insurance. Democrats are smarter than that.

Yes, because social security aka "force the middle class into a worse than lottery class investment" helps the middle class so much. You have been duped again and again...

That doesn't even make sense.

That would be a good thing, since obamacare is imploding DAILY. It will soon be 100% dysfunctional. It was a horribly written bill and rammed through ENTIRELY by democrats, simply to get it DONE, not because it would WORK. It needs to be ripped out by the roots.

The bill is ILLEGAL anyway. The government calls it a tax, but we all know people are PENALIZED if they don't buy it... and that is ILLEGAL.

The truth does make quite a bit of sense actually... What an amazing rebuttal.

Tell it to the Heritage Foundation, they hatched this plan as an alternative to what was then referred to as HilaryCare. Then Romney rolled it out in MA as governor.

You could have your Obamacare/single-payer.. fine.
Just leave the rest of us out of it.

It's best to have a choice to opt in.

If Trump is elected, his 'health care savings account' will cost half a trillion $, cause more than 20 million to lose coverage and not be able to replace it and immediately result in a two tier system. Vets will be screwed as will the elderly and children.

It will be the end of health care in the US - except for the well off and wealthy.

The right will be so pleased.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

Trump's going to give the poor Medical Savings Accounts. So they can put all that extra money they have into tax shelters.

Like everything else he has said, its geared to break the working class and benefit the well off.

It's a start. I'm in. Obamacare is a nightmare.

Good idea. Repeal and replace that POS with nothing. The Govt. isn't in the business of health care nor should it be.

A little history may be helpful:

Of course the willfully ignorant and biddable will continue to argue the PPACA must be repealed. They've been told to echo how bad it is, but have no understanding of the history of and the need for reform debated for decades. See:

A Brief History: Universal Health Care Efforts in the US | Physicians for a National Health Program

Is the PPACA perfect?

No! But the accompishment of the Democratic Party to pass reform is laudable and there is no sense of probity associated with its detractors.

I don't know why you are quoting me... I wasn't talking about history.

Newt was asked this weekend what they would replace it with and he started with "I would think..." Then it was pointed out to him that the GOP has been saying repeal and replace for years and still no one has any idea what it would be replaced with. I guess they mean repeal it then figure it out

"GOP: Obamacare ---> Repeal and Replace (with nothing)"

Exactly.

The Republican 'plan' is if you're not rich either don't get sick or die quickly.

Yes, that's all we've heard from the Rs but they have never come up with anything except the lie that ObamaCare is 100% bad.
