But there is no Trumpcare. Republicans have no clue how to replace it. They have had years to come up with ideas but have none. So repealing it would mean 20 million without insurance. That will be Trump's legacy if he goes through with it. Not a good thing.

I think that a man with 50 years in the business world will be able to figure something out. Is it going to be a pie in the sky liberal utopia, all are covered for every ailment plan? No. Will it be better than what is out there now? You bet.

When Trump goes high Obama goes low. Obama the deceiver in chief is beside himself and green with envy of Trump. While Trump is keeping his promises even before taking office Obama is running around like a banshee trying to stay relevant as his legacy crumbles. All the lies and deceit of Obama is coming back to haunt him as he scrambles around to keep the spotlight on him. One tweet from Trump burns two thousand calories off Obama. If liberals want to help Obama they should consider ordering him a pizza delivery.
So well said!

The boy king is on his way out.

Good bye, affirmative action presidency!

Let's not do this again, America.

He will do anything to go out trying to have leave behind a great legacy, but I don't see it happening. Has he done anything worth giving him credit for: positive credit? Yes. will he still go down in history as on of our better presidents? Not if judged correctly

Where are you getting the idea Republicans have no idea on how to replace it? Much of what it offers they intend on keeping, like pre condition and kids remaining on parents insurance. Yes, they talk about repealing, but more like it will be tweeked. If it is repealed, it would not be taken away from those using it right now over night. The government doesn't work that way in case you haven't noticed.

you are right on target. How could so many think Obamacare, as it stands is the only way to go or think that is will end overnight. this is one thing I think Trump has some control over.

Market driven is a result of demand. As the demand changes the market for the product changes to meet the demand. If there is increased demand for small cars here in the US, which we are not seeing now, then manufacturing here will bring jobs back or pay a higher fee to bring them into the country.

Small cars also tended to sell well based on lower prices in previous generations. With all the equipment that is either government mandated (safety features, emission measures) or all but required to sell (a/c, power locks/windows, decent sound systems, decent interior finishes) smaller cars started adding many of the features which had traditionally raised the costs for larger cars. Also a lot of models that began their lives as small cars (especially Accord and Corolla) have grown into much larger cars but maintained their same client base.


I think countries that are a better market for small car sales will probably continue to be more viable for small car production. Its definitely makes more sense to produce them in the area where they will see a majority of their sales.

He's been trying to take credit for all the positive news since the election of Trump. He is pathetic.
