What bothers me is that Republicans are slightly changing Obamacare, and in the process are going to assume responsibility of the new plan.

Since I believe any plan without reform of lobbyists, Tort reform, more efficient end of life care, and more transparency from providers will eventually fail... This healthcare plan will eventually fail thus allowing the democrats to say "see the Republicans plan failed and we told you all along the only solution is single payer" (which is their ultimate goal)

The ball is in the Republicans court and they have all the advantage right now. Don't settle for anything less then the ideal plan because whatever they create here will be theirs

Tldr: the democrats are playing 3D chess better than the Republicans on this issue

Not even, each state will be responsible for making it succeed or fail in their respective state.

This bill gets the monkey off the rights back and places it on state leadership whether it be (D) or (R).

Which is exactly, as you mentioned, what they probably planned all along. They WANT the GOPe to do something drastic about this. Go ahead, do what the OP and many others on here wants. If it falls through, or if the # of beneficiaries is less than the number of people who lose insurance, it falls completely under the GOPe and the media will ensure that it how it is viewed.

This entire insurance scheme has been a time-bomb. The premiums are not going to go down to pre-ACA. The insurance companies (forget the DEMs) will make it so.
