ACA is here to stay there will be no more health care talk while Trump is president he fails once again Trump seems to fail 3 to 4 times a week he is not had one major success while being president yet.
So, if a baby is born with a rare disease and you could not afford to pay for her "needs" you would just let him suffer?
I am sure he would do what he could to get help. He might seek churches, donation societies, or ask friends, family, co-workers, etc... if they would help.

Again, they should seek help from those who are willing to help. There are churches, donation societies, and lots of "caring" people like you right?

Sure they can, but they will pay higher premiums due to the risk pools. This cost can be paid by again, friends, family, donation societies, and such caring people like yourself (just think how many people in hollywood with BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of dollars could then help out those who need! Just think how good they will feel about themselves!)

Or... again, they seek donation drives, churches, and you would be surprised at how many non-profit hospitals are able to find a means to lower the costs of such. Also, what is wrong with some people paying for this through a long term loan? We do it for homes, but apparently asking someone to pay for their own life is too much?
also, keep in mind when we are no longer playing the government scam game which drives up costs, services will start to come down in price, making it much more affordable and reasonable to pay for things out of pocket. Kind of like how we used to pay for medical procedures out of pocket before government turned it into a scam.

No you don't, you argue completely AGAINST being responsible. You just gave numerous examples of how people should be "given" something because of their situation, that they should not have to pay for it, that we should FORCE others to pay for it without asking.
You have no concept of what responsibility even is.
thanks I was on here at work- no TV-- now I see - this is a plus for Americans really- but they cant just walk away --- back to the drawing board after your hangovers!!
I don't blame him. This bill is Ryan's pet project, not Trump's.
I'd rather see Trump focus on negotiating better trade deals and bringing jobs back to the US.
