    Pretty much will crash and burn by itself by 2 more years, as per the major Insurance companies and Congress! President Obama knew this would happen, and had it just roll on, as wanted I think to have it blew ip on trumps watch and benefit Dems!

    Romneycare was 70 pages long. Obamacare was 2700 pages. Some "model!" :)

    So then, we have established an exception to the
    rule?

    If one exception is permissible is it not possible there are other permissible exceptions?

    Probably an overly complicated mish mash of political nonsense. Which is all I expect from any politician.

    I don't see it.....perhaps you can point out this magical transformation to me. Has he received Christ as his lord & savior & made a public statement to that effect, and has he been baptized, and does he renounced Satan? You know stuff that would change the minds of perhaps 60% of the US population.

    I just heard that even though he renounced his Presidential salary (approx. $400,000 per year) that he is now taking it. That has not been verified to my satisfaction however it would go a long way to change my mind.

    how do you know? Is it better if you are throwing people off the rolls or out price it so it is unaffordable. Are we now going back to having lines at the hospital emergency room......what so we can bankrupt them!

    We already have lines at hospital emergency rooms. They never stopped. Obamacare did not make them any smaller. If anything, it made it worse.

    So, would you rather I lied to them and told them everything is going to be just fine?

    Tell them they will still have coverage if they want it. No reason to believe they won't.

    So what happens if Republicans can't agree on a plan?
    ... 0bamaCare will die of natural causes.
    It's been on life support for the past 3 years.
    1. Low enrollment – estimates show that less than half of the young and healthy have signed on to the plan - this was the key to low cost insurance coverage.
    2. Lost doctors – forced use of offensive electronic medical systems and low compensation has discouraged physician participation
    3. Lost plans – insurers have found the plans cost more than they expected and are dropping out.
    4. Higher deductibles - coverage allows for limited number of doctor visits before a high-deductible co-pay ($6000/family) kicks in.
    5. Higher premiums – the high deductible plans force the poor to pay for plans offering quite limited coverage.
    6. Politically applied exemptions abound -> deferred penalties (strange how the increased penalty didn't kick in until 0bama left wasn't it), exemptions to high cost union plans etc.
    7. Broken promises.

    June 15, 2009 "If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what." “…the only change you’ll see are falling costs as our reforms take hold."

    The plan will save families up to $2,500 in premiums per year under this health care overhaul.​
