He campaigned on Hope and Change and all we can do now is hope for change
You want some fake news? I’ve got some fake news for you right here.
The GOP has no plan to replace Obamacare. That is the headline the Corporations Once Known as the Mainstream Media try to scare the low information voters with. Nothing could be further from the truth.
One thing that annoys me about this “repeal and replace” thing is that if all you do is repeal it, you have, by definition, replaced it. If you repeal a law making use of marijuana illegal, you have replaced it with marijuana being made legal.
If you repeal obamacare, you have regulation where it exists outside of obamacare, and you have free markets where it doesn’t. That is what you have “replaced” it with.
And that is what I want - at first. Then we can continue to improve through things like allowing hospitals to refuse to accept patients, totally cusomizable health care, cross state lines, etc.
Fake News goes back even longer - here in the US to the Pulitzer/Hearst Yellow Journalism feud in the 1890s. It probably goes back before the days of Gutenberg and even the town crier. But the MSM under the Obama admin has mastered it.
Didn’t they used to refer to fake-news as Yellow Journalism?

Yes and it’s been around for a 100 years.
