Just A Simple Question...
During the debate prior to the passage of what is now called "Obamacare", it was often said, by members of both political parties, that everyone could agree on about 80% of the bill's content. The differences of opinion was reported to be on only 20% of the bill's content.
If that's the case, why has the House scheduled a vote to repeal the entire bill?
If this step is supposed to precede the crafting of new legislation to address the very real and well-known problem of unsustainable escalation of health care costs, I haven't heard the sponsors of the "repeal bill" say so.
It kind of leaves the question open, doesn't it...is this proposed bill just more political posturing and bickering or is it a serious attempt at governance?
