Okay, I do agree but I'm not sold on Obamacare having been destined to fail...we can spar on that as we move forward. The single payer deal will be looked at lot in the coming sessions as it removes all the kinks and knots from healthcare while saving $5-6 hundred billion annually. We'll see. Also, the CBO doesn't seem to agree with Obamacare being on a self-imploding course.

Obamacare was designed to fail.

Sometimes, I really wonder why you don't post more consistently with substance and without BS like you've done in #18 to promote more good exchanges. Yes, as I mentioned above, they did remove the Substance Abuse Care provision in their deal which is why people like Robert Moss, who sold everything he had and followed Trump around, are now highly pissed and vehemently oppose your party now. Multiply that by....pick a number. All they did actually did was simply try and 'tweak' Obama's sig... [ More ]

If the total bill is not repealed and Republicans lose power the Democrats still have the Obamacare bill in place. All they would need to do is another reconciliation deal on parts of the Obamacare bill.<br

@ Think, I understand where you're coming from, but that assessment may be a little too harsh. The only reason it didn't pass is that the conservative sector didn't think the bill went far enough to completely remove it from any aspect or vestige of being perceived as OdumboCare V2. I agree with Konane that it needs to be completely re-worked and resubmitted for eventual enactment (in the not too distant future), and in such a manner that it couldn't possibly be construed as being Odumbocare Lite/V2. The federal subsidies need to be terminated and the provisions thereof totally transferred back to the arena of the private sector where Health Savings Accounts should take center stage and be subject to the rules of normal free market capitalism. Federal government has no business being involved in the health insurance market, much less imposing penalties for non-compliance. That way we finally get back on track to recovery and much needed relief.... [ More ]

If they don't do it then they are promise breaking liars. If they go down as promise breaking liars then I suggest the Libertarians field electable candidates for the next elections. Any sane person can see that while Obamacare is the fault of the moron Marxists the failure to repeal and replace it is the fault of the promising GOP. There, blame assigned, now do what you SAID you were going to do and repeal and replace it or go down as lying failures... [ More ]

LOL, was I too cowardly in just citing Paul Ryan's failure above ? I'm still not quite sure which side of the fence he's on (?) Seems to be straddling both sides which equates to failure. Get Rand Paul on board already and the bill will go through without any problem.

Speedy, my friend, they're fully aware HERE of what happened today because even Sean Hannity and Rush had to admit that the republicans phuqued up ROYALLY. How in hell can people blame the Dems when Republicans own the majority on both sides of the road? These folks are sick, man, I keep telling you! Notice how they're all too cowardly to cite their own leaders as the failing links in all this. It's also why there's ANOTHER catastrophic failure looming. He!!, even the CBO said that neither...

Seems to me like President Trump should ditch Paul Ryan and get on board with a Rand Paul plan. Ryan's plan was certainly an improvement in that it removed mandatory purchase requirements and associated penalties, but it didn't go far enough and still seemed to me a bit like Odumbocare Lite. No doubt that OdumboCare has run it's course and will self-implode later year even without further intervention. But as President Trump has previously reiterated, this is not the best course of action for the country.... [ More ]

Kal I agree it needs a total rework. I think that's why everyone has balked so far passing it. Trump is functioning like a business man ... get things in order to do the deal or he'll work on something else until they do. He has a lot of things to do so wants them to get past their kindergarten antics and do it right.

Let Obamacare explode on its own. Democrats own it. _______ I'll bet they still don't know what's in it either.

JAP69 has the right idea. Let the DEMOCRATS sleep in the bed they made, see if Pelosi takes the blame.

The repubs have the House, Senate and the presidency and couldn't get enough votes to pass a bill. Trump wrote the book, "The Art of the deal". He found out the hard way that those strategies only work in the corporate world. He failed miserably as a closer.
