What is the plan? Live with it?

What is Congress pushing these days?

Seems nothing is reported outside of the investigations

They got rid of the individual mandate. That's the best we can hope for.

The mandate was killed, so no one is forced to suffer the consequences.

Vote the bums out if you want it replaced.

The worst parts of it (taxes and individual mandate) were repealed by the recent tax cuts.

They don’t have the numbers in the senate to do anything about it right now. Maybe they will after midterms

It's not like Paul Ryan and Marble Mouth campaigned on this for about 7 years. It's asking too much that they have a replacement plan created or a transition plan for a blanket repeal.

Paul Ryan is absolute scum.

Why? Just repeal it and let the markets do their thing. Repeal doesn’t require gov intervention after that.

Except you still have to overpay for junk plans. If they let people have their old plans back it would be better.

I was paying about $70 per month for a high deductible plan a few years ago. That plan is now just over $350. Republicans were full of shite concerning repealing Obamacare, and they should be fricking embarrassed.

It was either last week or the week before when the president mentioned in a speech that they have been working on new medical insurance options that were going to be coming out very very soon. He was pretty hyped up about it too.

In their defense they didn’t have the votes with liars like McCain voting against it.

Hate to call a once honorable man a liar and defend the republicans here but most that ran on repeal tried.

Everything starts in the House. As much money as Paul Ryan raised off of ObamaCare, he should have had a bill ready to go and he never did.
