Get a grip.

Yes because I am not a partisan. I do not blindly follow either party

If anybody was in the dark about Obamacare, it was because they had their eyes closed. That bill was debated, talked about on the news, posted on websites...

Trump and the Republicans are clear they plan to repeal and replace ACA right off the bat. Trump says he has a plan. Republicans have been working on this for years now. Surely, they have a plan.

HSA and tax credits are non-starters. They really only work for higher-income workers, most of whom already have company or government funded health insurance.

So what's the plan?

Oh, please. Not even Obama knew what was in the final ACA legislation. Remember this? "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan."

Nope. Not included in the final ACA legislation at all.

Odd. I seem to recall the top 1% wealth dramtically increased under Obama's 8 years. This all happened while people on food stamps (the poor) exploded.

Who do you think took it in the shorts with the passing of Obamacare. I'll give you a hint...THE MIDDLE CLASS.

Got anymore stellar comments to share on the subject?

Ocare is imploding and collapsing on it's own. Did Dems ever try and put together something with the help of Repubs to fix it?

I think not.

Sorry. The ACA is collapsing on itself. Would the Left prefer we just let is go down in flames before trying to fix it??

I'd like to see the complete plan before they repeal the current Affordable Care Act, wouldn't you?


Well, as Nancy Pelosi stated, “We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.”

Republicans refused to modify anything about the ACA.

Their goal was not to develop a workable plan for America, but to make Obama a one-term president and to see that Obamacare failed.
