For Conservatives Only
"Why do conservatives want to repeal Obamacare?
Obama sought to permenantly increase the government's share of the economy to redistribute income and to reduce inequality. Obamacare was his spending wedge to force tax increases long after he left office. ....Obamacare was designed to expand over time, reaching deeper into the middle class and displacing ever more private health insurance. This private market decomposition has been slower than expected because the Obama Administration botched the job. but if Obamacare continues on its present trend the result will inevitably be higher levels of taxation across society.....
The CBO is not omniscient, but if its projections are even close to accurate then Obamacare repeal and replacement is the most significance government reform in perhaps three decades. Under conventional ( static-revenue) scoring , the bill cuts spending on net by $1.22 trillion and eliminates a raft of new taxes worth $883 billion through 2026...........
CBO shows the bill (GOP Health) is a far reaching advance for the market principles and limited government that conservatives usually favor....
If conservatives fumble this repeal and replacement moment, they won't get another chance. And they'll have squandered their best opening in a generation to control the size and scope of the federal Leviathan"
