Lol. He's a salesman trying to sell his wares. Ironically he gets his health insurance paid for by the taxpayers.

His garbage about health insurance being a 'market' is absolute crap. It is not. But, I do hope it is passed, because this plan will destroy the GOP if put in place.

You really think that?

I don't think Dems would know a good thing if it came up and punched them in the face.

You think this plan is a good thing? It basically keeps most of the ACA, it just cuts the subsidies so less people will be able to afford it, while giving a big juicy tax cut to the insurance companies.

What is so "good" about it? Be specific.

We've done this many times. I've posted links after link explaining it. Did wealth inequality grow under Obama or not?

Of course it did and it cost the (D)'s big time in November.

Oh, the puppet of big pharma and the insurance companies who gets his health insurance paid for by the tax payers talking about how Joe Sixpack would be better off being ripped off by big pharma and Aetna.

I saw it and Ryan did a nice job taking down the Democrats. It's not really that hard, though.

This failed group of extremists passed a failed overhaul of 1/8th of the economy in the dark of night and the only reason it passed was because of kickbacks and bribes. They ignored every warning about how the plan would fail. To the surprise of nobody with a functioning brain, all the predictions about the failed plan came true.

Then, instead of owning up to the failed scheme they implemented, the Democrats did absolutely nothing to address the structural problems in the ACA for 8 years. Now, the program has been so bad and such a failure that the Democrats have been kicked out of the White House, the House and the Senate. 8 years later, and the ACA is in a death spiral.

What to the failed Democrats do about the ACA? Nothing, except say it's a great bill as they block attempts to fix the mess they created. I wish I could say it's amazing, but nothing the failed extremists who make up today's Democrat Party do is amazing anymore. They reach new lows with each passing day.

He rolled up his shirt sleeves so he must be telling the truth.

As has been pointed out here many times, most of those people can't afford the co-pays and deductibles anyway so while they have it, they can't actually use it.

It won't happen, this is just GOP pandering to fulfill a campaign promise that they have been chanting for the last 6 years. They need to do the hard work first and it appears they are not up to the task.
I doubt it will happen either. Just stating what I support.

Whats so great about it? You have to earn ALOT of money to really benefit from any of this at all. Are you a member of the big money donor class?

I'm not sure why you would ask me this. I'm not here to defend the GOP's actions.
