a biased source


It's fun how you guys take neutral analysis from a non-partisan agency and claim it's biased just because you don't like the results.

but Republicans have had 7 years to develop a "replace" plan and thus far have no plan they agree on.

Bush appointee is in charge fwiw. The republican congress picked the head.

I know facts don't matter anymore, but that is a fact.

CBO...yeah. They were really good at warding off our 20 trillion in debt. Obamacare was going to make things cheaper....yeah, I'd listen to these guys.

Because there isn't one.

The law is a failure. You even highlight a point saying that premiums will double by 2026. This law has only been in place for a few years and premiums have double for some multiple times already. It hasn't done anything that was promised besides make people with a job pay for the ones without a job.

Why do you want to keep it, surely we can come up with something better than this???

Pre-existing conditions, for starters. Lifetime caps, for another.


Covering pre-existing conditions is not insurance. Also, were there lifetime caps at charity hospitals? We need to bring back those.

Link it. One they agree one, with specifics.

It doesn't exist, so have fun pretending your talking points from Ryan or Price fit the bill.

The Republicans have have seven years in which they have had no real chance to put a replacement into action. They are also not a monolithic group who all see a very complex problem the exact same way.

Of course, that's just a garbage Dem talking point you're spewing.

This issue is so important to you that you whine on the internet almost daily. But not so important that you actually do anything of consequence.

It could be politicized but it likely means more uninsured and more costs.

It isn't. If you believe otherwise you're misinterpreting the data or you're being lied to. Probably the latter.

Some, sure. On average, it's produced a slowing in premium growth as predicted.

20M new people with insurance, as promised. :roll eyes:

There's nothing in the real world that's better that can pass Congress. Covering pre-existing conditions has only 2 solutions - a mandate or money. Republicans roundly denounced both options.
