Why would anyone fight for a country that holds them in such disdain?

Healthcare IS the government's responsibility under Lincoln's definition: "Government does for people what they cannot do for themselves."

After they've gotten their free physicals, they'll repeal the Affordable Care Act and replace it with a shovel-ready plan.

And I do mean "shovel-ready."

Republicans want to own every failure of the health care system over the next 4 years, and the political consequences of kicking over 20 Million people off of their insurance plans


Sounds like Obamacare.

Please stop calling Medicaid insurance. It's a government run entitlement.

That is insurance. The same as Medicare or Tricare.

So you admit the ACA is a bad system?


Per Kaiser, more people can access their doctor without concern for cost than pre-ACA. That doesn't factor in those who were unable to get insurance before the law, either.

Per Gallup, the opposite is true.

And it's an indisputable fact that under the ACA, there are chemo patients who have to rely on fundraisers and charity to afford treatment. You can find people on Gofundme who have insurance and still have to rely on donations for their medical bills. Their insurance is ACA compliant and failed them. That makes the ACA a failure.

The Left needs to STFU. Trump said they would repeal AND replace, and says a plan will be ready to go. The Dems were hardly transparent when they forced Obamacare onto every one. " We have to pass it to see what's in it."

Let the man take office and let's see what he comes up with.

I just hope they do replace.

Repeal only is bad policy and bad politics.

I consider the ACA a success, but in need of tweaks.

Tweaking the ACA can fix its problems.

Repelaing the ACA will cause the deaths of Americans.

Pretty disturbing that repubs want to screw millions of Americans out of health coverage simply because it has Obama's name on it

He said the government should not be providing insurance full stop. If the fed is so incapable and incompetent then why are TRICARE and VA benefits so important? Just send active duty and vets a group plan in the private market. Right? Right?!
