Bless those who have Obamacare.

[Warren Kiefer]

Republicans have for eight years stated they had a replacement for Obamacare. Of course this was a lie and now they took a couple of week to hammer out a Trumpcare plan. Most Democrats and a lot lot of Republicans say the replacement plan is a nightmare and should not be voted on. For those 23 million on Obamacare, they are going to have a tough time having future health care. Is trump the only mentally deficient person we ever elected to be President ???

Just drop it...and medicaid too.

Take away your insurance and have you use your millions to pay for all your family health care.

Taking away MY insurance? No...I said get rid of Obamacare and Medicaid. Those are people who don't/can't pull their own weight. Why should they each cost the rest of us an additional $11,000 a year? We house them, we feed them, give them everything they need...and now we have to keep them alive too? Why? Death from natural causes...you can leech until death from natural causes. I'm not paying for $1 million in operations so I can keep supporting you...that's insane.

What about those who have lost their insurance because of Obamacare because they can no longer afford to pay the premiums and deductibles? Do they not count for anything?

Why are people complaining that he is trying to keep his promises? That is a first for any President. These are the same people who would complain if he wasn't. Keep in mind, to date no one, no one, has lost their Obamacare. They won't until it is replaced. This is a process! Processes take time. That's why it is called a process. They will work on it until they do get it right.

People complain that this is no different than Obamacare, just tweaked. He promised that he would see to it that those with pre-existing conditions would be able to be insured. He promised to write in the good things about the Obamacare plan and discard the bad ones. People are being apprised along the way of what it is to be, much unlike "pass it to see what's in it". This is not going to be the "Wham bam, thank you mam", that Obamacare was when passed.

He gets slammed for his remarks about the press being biased. Today was just an example. One person who is working on the new plan was being interviewed and was explaining what they are working on. The media guy (Fox, by the way) said something about the work continuing behind closed doors. He was immediately corrected to "open doors" by the guy.

As for those who say it was going to be replaced from Day One; Day One was the first step, not the final plan.

One of the best things, thus far, is not penalizing employers for not carrying insurance or individuals who do not take insurance they cannot afford.

Obamacare is failing and would eventually mean that a whole lot more people would lose their health insurance than there was that did not have it before ObamaCare. So, why anyone would be upset over the transition to a more solid program, is kind of crazy. Why in the world would you insist on trying to save face regarding Obama's only legacy at the expense of those that were forced to obtain insurance that will then lose that insurance anyway? Why not be mature and adult about it and just admit that Obamacare was designed to fail so that the Democrat run government would be able to form a single payer, socialist health care system? It never occurred to them that they would be totally annihilated in this past election and that the Democrat party committed political suicide with the formation of Obamacare. But, you leftards just keep on crying about the injustice of the right wings move to repeal a failing and costly program. I would be sympathetic if I didn't think you all were sooo stupid.

No, Hillary has no love for this nation. Only herself and her goal of breaking that infamous "glass ceiling" of being the only woman ever elected President. We now have a President that cares about this nation, not every other nation on earth. Yes, it is about AMERICA FIRST! Not about one woman first!

[Paper1]

Obamacare is now an entitlement and will be with us forever, maybe with a different name. It was passed by a majority however slight, with all the benefits up front and all the pain from paying for it kicked down the road. The pain parts are starting to come due and our republican house is now trying to do something after passing every spending bill Obama put in front of them because they lacked political courage. If it is repealed without replacement we will have a democratic house and senate in two years, just do the numbers. Now how do we seriously fix this problem? Obama was a much better poker player than Mitch and Paul.

You will pay, you will have no choice. Maybe you should not pay your income tax, after all look at all the corporate welfare your paying for, or is that different.

Judgmental, are we? Plenty of people are/were on Obamacare one way or the other. Not all are the ones described in your rant. Remember "if you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance"? That did not happen and they were forced to accept other insurance under Obamacare or pay a fine if they could not afford it, choosing to become uninsured instead. Between the premiums and the deductibles, they were better off without it. They could pay the fine and bank the money they would have paid the insurers, and pay totally out of pocket. That's what their deductibles, never mind the premiums, would cost them anyway since its inception.

As for your last statement, be thankful that you have that million dollars to pay for your own operations, should there come a time you need one. Just because people require an operation to live, does not mean they become totally useless as you infer. Yes, even older people like us.

I'm talking about the perpetually on welfare minorities...blacks and Hispanics on welfare for generations. I'm talking about people who their entire lives are a net drain on society. People we'd be better off without.

I'm not talking about regular people who have families and jobs...

We are the only country in the developed world that does not have universal health care.

ABSOLUTELY and believe me I am not a left liberal
Health care in this country saved my life under Obama
and now I risk losing the plan because the costs which already have increased by 60% in 2017 are threatened to further increase by a minimum of 50% more. Why cant the USA looked to our neighbors north and copy that plan that is working just fine.

[Don Baldwin]

We are the only country in the developed world that does not have universal health care.

We also have the highest minority population. A population half of which contributes nothing on a net basis. More than half TAKE from the government. It costs the equivalent of $1,000 a month for the healthcare they expect. Who is going to pay $10,000 a year for 50 million poor people? They have too much for medicaid but not enough to pay $13,000 a year. Do YOU want to get saddled with that? So you can KEEP paying their welfare?

Because Canada is full of productive white people who are not on welfare leeching off everyone else like our 51% minority population. In Canada almost everyone contributes to the government and in the US, more than half TAKE from the government. Mostly the minority half. America is full of "dead wood", not worth a damn, having to be dragged along. We have at least 50 million expecting "full coverage" while sitting home...f@cking and drinking all day. They're black people who feel they're getting their "reparations" for being slaves about 150 years ago.

It works in Canada like the villages works here...because it's mostly white people. As your minority population grows...you too will notice your quality of life going down too. The villages is white...THAT is WHY it is so great. Canada is white...that's why "socialism" works there...productive white people. Socialism doesn't work here because we're too brown and half don't produce, half don't chip in, half just want to take. Not all work together.

Whatever plan that is eventually passed, which will inevitably make millions of American citizens lose their access to health care...will ALWAYS be referred to as... 'Trumpcare.' :thumbup:

It will be hilarious to watch Chump continue to be apoplectic, when he realizes that he's not a dictator like his hero Putin...and can't have journalists killed because he doesn't like what they say or call it. :D

Twitter will continue to be one of the best sources of humor...when it comes to Trump making a fool of himself.

Can't wait. :popcorn:

You make a great argument for one national health care program. This means everyone, congress ect, No other insurance, everyone will be treated equally.

Go ahead listen to these EXPERTS...who knows if they are right?
I am wondering why did these experts not see the recession was coming in 2007?
Why did these experts not see Obammacare was a burden to the middle class?

When people who were previously insured in the individual market obtain insurance in the exchanges, on the average they are worse off. ... Even the Obamacare mandate's threatened penalties are not enough to make Obamacare insurance attractive to the vast majority of the uninsured middle class.

You really meant to say; YOU would be treated equally...
I surmise that you are still feeling a little substandard and have a desire to force others to treat you equally...

Quit being lazy, go out there and make it happen for yourself, don't lay around whining on here and hoping someone else will do it for you!
