Anyway again, this was not a vote on the repeal, this was a vote on the rules surrounding the repeal vote, and that is to allow seven hours of debate with no Amendments offered.

Now, I don't doubt when the actual vote on repeal takes place next week, that it will pass the House, however its a dead duck in the Senate. Forget even a filibuster, its not even going to have 51 votes.

I guess if you no longer have any savings or assets left anymore, you have a point there.

BTW, great way to solve the healthcare crisis in this country!

Interesting....Perhaps you can let us all know what the fine was for not providing insurance before Obamacare was wrangled through using reconciliation.

Now....I'm not an expert on business but wouldn't you think that being forced to pay a fine might cause businesses to second guess on new hires? What would that be? Right- a job killer.

Would it be the taxpayers then. Who the hell says the corporations can double dip on the tax deduction!

This guy really doesn't have a business.

Just a disabled vet that likes to make a little extra cash.

Then why not subsidize the individual for their healthcare, after all it is our money.

Let me extend his apologies to you for his shortcomings.

What is the 1099 and how does it affect his snow plowing business? How many employees did he have?

Let's see: Go back to when the insurance companies charge women more than they charge men and deny coverage based on pre-existing conditions.

They won't repeal the healthcare law. It's all grandstanding and a circus show for idiots.

Exactly! If the Republicans also had the majority in the Senate, they would never have voted for repealing the healthcare bill. This was all smoke and mirrors. They do not want the healthcare bill repealed, they only want you to think they do.
