That sounds like you are threatening me. Instead, you should perhaps stop interacting with me, which is what adults generally do, rather than threaten people.

Right. If Obamacare did not help the problem than repealing it should help with making healthcare better. But if what Trump does doesn't help healthcare, than his moves could boomerang back onto him in the next election.

If having no free market in healthcare will improve things than Trump will be fine in the next election. But if not, in 4 years time there won't be any liberals to hide behind if things go south. Trump should take caution on his move with this.

How is that a threat? I only want you and your trolling off of these boards

Forbes Welcome


BTW, thanks for acknowledging I know it all.
Well what-do-you-know? Your site had the same numbers as the bogus official site. About 13M on the exchanges.

Obamacare = the exchanges and the medicaid expansion. About another 9M.

I'm not weighing in on anymore of these silly 'er' healthcare threads. I think you might remember back in feb when I busted up every single-payer myth and ACA related tripe by them.

You are correct... and preventive care is actually down. When the risk pool is opened up what do people expect?

Oh, so you agree that it isn't 20 million. Thanks. Glad we both agree.

You know what would be a great compromise, however? Having two parallel systems of healthcare in America. One for paying patients and the other for non-paying patients and liberals (since they love socialized medicine, I am told). Then we could see which one worked out better. And unlike Obamacare, we wouldn't let people get exemptions from socialized medicine. We would just say "oh, you supported it, so there you go!"
Good idea. And we can call the social plan The Public Option.

Yes, it is a good idea, particularly since the socialized part of it will mean that only the people in it will be called on to fund it. That will be particularly good for the rich union members and government officials, who have professed their desire for socialism. I am glad that we have come to such a great compromise.

I like your style. Thanks for making me not have to repeat about 4 threads from the spring where I laid all this out
