Senate Republicans are mulling over a provision to their healthcare overhaul measure that could bar Americans from purchasing insurance on the individual market for six months if they don't maintain continuous coverage, Vox reported Saturday.

The provision would address concerns over the bill's current lack of penalties for those who choose not to purchase insurance, and could be introduced as soon as Monday, according to the report.

This will crash and burn like Obamacare, and drag the GOP down with it. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

For the folks who want to wait until they're sick to buy insurance.

Why in the hell are they basically doing the same stuff they rallied against for the past 8 years?

All of this outrage about how terrible Obamacare is and how they want to repeal and replace. Seems like it was all political bullshite.

Or the folks who are young and perfectly healthy who get absolutely fricked financially by the abomination that is the ACA.

The punishment for not having insurance is losing the ability to purchase insurance? How does that make sense?

I'm going to say that they are being paid very nicely to do so.

These Republicans are determined to lose control of the U. S. Congress.

Anyway if the GOP chooses to push this provision of their healthcare bill it'll be DOA.

This is false. They know what the people want and why they were elected. They simply don't care. They are on the same team as the Dems. Maybe situations like this will wake more people up.

They want control over the populace as bad as the Progs do, just in a different fashion.

As did the ACA

Why can't the left see that it is us(citizens) against the government. You want to resist against something? Try the uniparty.

As a Republican, this is embarrassing. You can't "fix" Obamacare. It is not possible as it is such a flawed bill.

Either you truly start from scratch authoring a workable solution or suck it up and repeal it with no replacement ( I know, "mean").
