LMAO! That’s now how it works - sweetie. The ACA doesn’t have the authority to expand the power of the federal government. Only the U.S. Constitution can do that.
That’s literally impossible because I don’t have an “argument”. I simply have the U.S. Constitution - the highest law in the land. Thanks for playing, junior.
Yep...the federal government has been violating the U.S. Constitution for decades. Many decades to be specific. Hell, just the existence of Medicare is a monumental violation of the U.S. Constitution.
There again, the Supreme Court cannot alter law (they are part of the judicial branch while only the legislative branch can alter law). The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land. The Supreme Court cannot legally overrule it.
Do you actually believe that major insurers are rewriting policies right now without legislation to do it? Just based on one of Trump's bogus executive orders?
Was Obamacare an executive order or was it legislation that was passed, rules and mandates were done, that was signed into law, that was sent onto insurers in this country so they could write their policies according to those health care laws & mandates.
Insurers will not rewrite their policies without direction from an approved bill that comes out of congress and is signed into law. Therefore, credibile licensed insurers will NOT cross state borders to sell insurance, and if they do, it will still have to meet the mandates within Obamacare--meaning it will be much higher than instate insurance. It is the insurer that decides which state/s they operate in, not Trump. Insurers will turn out for healthier states to compete in. Unhealty states they will opt to avoid, which is why healthier states have multiple insurers there competing for business, while unhealthier states have fewer.
Congress holds the purse strings in this country, not Trump, and they will not authorize any expense without an approved health care bill that they wrote, approved and was signed into law. Just like Trump's executive order on a wall--it was a joke, because Congress never wrote a bill to build a wall, therefore, they will not FUND a wall.

Now should some miracle ensue and Trump's executive order actually does come to fruition and people are allowed to cross state lines to get their insurance, which will put a huge hole into subsidized insurance coverage--it will be the TRUMP states that will get hurt the worst.
Would you look at that line of DARK GREEN. The darker the green the more Federal subsidies are handed out to people who have insurance under Obamacare. IOW you would be screwed.

And you think if insurers re-write policies with LESS costly services and with policies giving people a choice whether they need contraceptives or not that the STATE
regulators would be against "Lower premiums" and more choices to the insured?
Credible--licensed insurance companies (cannot nor will not) be able to rewrite policies, without an approved congressional bill that has been signed into law. If they decide to sell insurance out of state--the Obamacare mandates will still have to be met--meaning the premiums would be higher than instate insurance.
So some 400 lb. fat guy that can't get out of bed in Mississppi--is not going to be able to call an insurer in Colorado and say hey insure me, you're required too---They don't want his business. It's the insurers that choose the states they operate in, not TRUMP.
What Trump's executive order did do, is open the door to a lot of FRAUD. There will be so called out of state cough-cough insurance companies all over the internet in no time, selling across border medical insurance policies--(that do NOT meet the mandates in Obamacare)--& will not be accepted by instate doctors and hospitals, and or will not include (castastrophic coverage)--surgery & hospitalization, etc.---for a much lower cost than instate premiums.
I don't think the various 50 state insurance regulators will let that happen. Right now, Aetna for example registered policies to be sold in the states they want to sell in.
Federal law ALWAYS supersedes state law. And this will be the case here.
There will ALWAYS be fraud in insurance! Are you that naive? There are 1,400 insurance companies right now primarily because each entity that wants to sell in
a state must have "state" presence in most states. That may not be necessary under the Trump plan.

This is the basic stuff covered in high school. Maybe you progressives should have attended class rather than skipping to get stoned.

Where did I say there wasn't any fraud already? The point is there will be more FRAUD with Trump's excutive order. You cannot force insurers to cover states they don't want to do business in PERIOD. Nor can you force insurers to sell out of state insurance to someone that lives in a state that they do not cover, nor want to cover--PERIOD.
To make health care changes (since we are currently ruled under FEDERAL Health Care Law aka Obamacare) not the states. The States no longer control health care in this country.
Therefore, Congress would have to approve of a new health care bill (or) make changes to the existing Obamacare, and it would then need to be signed into law, & then it is sent to the 50 States--so they can set up their Obamacare exchanges, (if they opted in for an Obamacare exchange--or you purchase it through a Federal Government mainframe) & the insurers in those states will write their policies according to the new or revised Federal HEALTH CARE LAW--not one of Trump's bullshit Executive orders.
Congress will not fund an executive order--without a Health Care bill that they have approved of and signed into law. You have NOT elected a King or Dictator.
Sweet baby Jesus how many times do I need to explain this to you? You know for as much as you hate Obamacare, you sure don't know Jack shit as to the way it's set up.
So if Congress passed legislation that eliminated the 1st Amendment and passed other legislation that said it was ok to kill muslims, you would declare that completely constitutional?
This is one of the main reasons no one should vote republican. Until they all swear they would never go along with fucking people with pre existing conditions.Why would he do this to millions of sick people getting treatments for survival , including young children?.
Separately, the order would allow consumers to buy short-term policies, which don't have to comply with Obamacare's protections for those with pre-existing conditions. Also, it looks to broaden the ability of employers to give workers money to buy their own coverage through health reimbursement arrangements, known as HRAs.
