The reason no president has tried to deal with health care is because it is hard. Obamacare was never fully implemented because Republicans made it as difficult as they could. I do not expect Republicans to do anything but demonize Obamacare and I have read the posts from certain "so called" Democrats while they spout right wingery. Now, they can get what Trump gives them and they better love it because that's it. After seven years of demonizing Obamacare and ignoring how impossible Republicans made it, whatever Trump and Paul Ryan give them is it. I really hope states create their own plans as long as states can create decade long qualification periods for newcomers. My beautiful blue state should not be the answer for sick Republicans.
DO IT. Republicans are going to own this regardless, it doesn't matter how long they debate it, they will own it.
For someone that always talks about their investments, this shouldn't have been a problem. I don't get government health care or subsidies and I won't get them now.
Of course it's hard, <duh> that's why you should want all the input you can get to make it workable. You can't just put something together, ram it through so you can get political kudos. The people who wrote this law obviously didn't understand finance or human nature either.
I disagree. This allows plans to remain what insurance should be for, large cost events not tied to lifestyle decisions.
So I'm supposed to be ok with a $375 bill for taking my daughter to her pediatrician for having Strep? $198 AFTER insurance! It's all a bunch of garbage! Let all the illegals stay here and maybe the rest of us should leave to a country that actually takes care of it's citizens!
They retain the tax on high value employer policies that has not gone into effect yet. What we were seeing there is that emoployers were just eliminating those plans rather than pay taxes on them. Many who have really good insurance will likely be losing it and seeing much higher deductibles and copays.

Sure, okay.

Whatever happens, it looks like older people will be paying much more and younger people paying less. If seniors are paying essentially 40% more, will they still love Trump and Ryan? Of course they will.
Can't wait to see what Paul Ryan's plan is for Medicare.

which means they wont retire, and those young folk paying less will have to wait extra years to move up..
healthcare in the USA is just a way to force people to work themselves to death
Aren't young people supposed to be saving money to pay down student debt? How the hell are they supposed to do that when they are busy subsidizing everyone's health insurance? If only those young healthy rioters dressed in all black knew that the left is taking advantage of them. They are already paying astronomical tuition prices and subsidizing their liberal college professors and university administrators. I find it absolutely ridiculous that they are somehow the key to unlock affordable healthcare for all. We need to stop exploiting young people by saddling them with lifelong debt. The solution is for people to take care of themselves so that demand for health care is reduced.
^^^ the voice of common sense, the young don't know their being exploited.
if you dont like the plan, dont post call your rep.
camp on their doorstep, move into their homes. gather registered republicans and let your senator or rep knw you will campaign against them for as long as they try to hold office.

What if I'm a Democrat that just thinks Republicans are the dog that caught the car?
