They should just repeal obamacare and put things back like they were. That was much better.

Health care works just fine for us. It’s because we don’t have insurance. It’s like buying an oil change or groceries. “Cash, check or charge?”

It’s also a LOT cheaper.

The present system is NOT reformable. There are too many skimmers, scammers on the supply side, and too many free-riders on the demand side. There is no political will, nor is there anyone smart enough to reconstruct this hairball of complexity.

The smart thing to do - continue subsidies, as is, for a certain period. BUT create a legal framework for doctors, providers and patients to organize everything in cash, between only themselves. Create a parallel free market. It will need to incentivize and remove all barriers. from tax to liability. The Left and crony-capitalists will use any method possible to kill it.

A true free-market will grow quickly and provide stability while the government-mandated, 3rd party payer system collapses. It will be a reference in price and service to the corrupt, cronyist, high-cost system we have now.

NO

The health care insurance gambit is completely broken.

I agree. And it irritates me to no end the constant barrage of spam mail of affordable health plans available.

Kill it, bury it. Too tempting for political abuse.

Just build factories for an at home autodoc.

It truly is broken. Oh, if only people knew the extent of it.

Perhaps a 100% income tax on malpractice awards (except for corrective medical costs) plus a $5,000 filing fee tax.

The welfare state hungers for money, including for Medicaid expansion.

Barring state and federal coverage mandates would help.

No one should be guaranteed a gold-filled iron rice bowl by law - state mandates violate the Amendment XIV equal protection clause.

Floridians like me want Zero-care gone.

No Medicaid expansion
+
much higher premiums ($150/month -> $500/month)

If elected Republicans can’t do better than President Zero, join him in retirement please.
