We can make suggestions until Doomsday, Obamascare is here to stay
It appears that Obamacare is here to stay. Those doctors who grew up with the conditioning notion of utopian social justice love it. Those doctors who hate the government intrusion and regulation into their medical practice hate it. The American public is split as well along those lines.
Nobody really believed that Obamacare, deplorably named the Affordable Care Act, would be amended to benefit the wishes of the American people, much less repeal it. Once a bureaucracy has been ensconced and billions and billions of dollars have been spent and trillions earmarked to be spent in the future, it cannot be walked back. The welfare dependency mentality of half of the country will prevent that.
My PCP retired just after the crap was shoved down our throats. LOATHE the new one and can’t find another one, they don’t want Medicare/Tricare Life Seniors.
It’s DeathCare because the Elitists/Globalists want to control who lives and who dies. If you doubt that, look at the sky and see the chemicals they’re spraying us with as well as our food, water, etc.
Medical care right now sucks. All doctors can do is spend five to ten minutes with you and hand you prescriptions with side effects that suck from drugs made in some third-world hell hole. Big pharma pimping drugs they make billions on that had minimal clinical trials before being foisted onto the public. Today’s physicians barely know who you are and don’t really care. The few competent and dedicated physicians retired when Zero came to power.
I’ve always said I want to know how a politician votes when his vote breaks a tie. ALL of the Republicans voted to repeal Obamacare 60 times when they new it didn’t matter. The first chance they get to get rid of it they offer to rename it. Once again, we’ve been had and it took less than 4 months for them to laugh behind our gullible backs.
The entirety of the ACA was to let government get in on the healthcare/healthcare INSURANCE industry $$$. PERIOD.
It has NEVER been about getting healthcare to ANYBODY.
All babbling about one plan or the other is horsecrap.
Until we get government OUT of it, we’re screwed and they will continue to make out like bandits.
I’m afraid that, now they’re in it, there’s no getting them to ever willingly opt themselves OUT of yet ANOTHER avenue of transferring money from our pockets to theirs.
How very cynical of you! “Repeal and Replace” don’t ya know? “We’re gonna water it down a bit, then get on with fixing it in Phases II and III.”
When that BS was mentioned, the first thing I thought of was Lucy and the football...
I remember when the Patient Destruction and Unaffordable Lack of Health Care Act was being railroaded into being and many of those who should have known better were acting as if it would be the greatest thing imaginable. I told them then that it would be the end of any REAL health care for anyone other than people in government or the super wealthy. Naturally they thought I was nuts. I sometimes wonder if any of them ever remember what I warned them about.
It seemed to me to be so obvious that it would be a disaster, so simple were the reasons it was doomed to result in misery. What I still lack the brains to explain is why people keep thinking that more government is what we need, it is beyond my ability to comprehend.
The ONLY way to get rid of this idiotic government program is to ensure that every Congress Critter has to be covered by it and only it. Currently they are covered by a plan every American would die for and certainly don’t pay for out of pocket. The obvious example of Repeal Because of Political Inconvenience was Prohibition. So a stupid program can only be repealed by the stupid politicians who passed it (and didn’t bother to read it even after the fact).
Corrections, insights welcome.
Also, regardless that Ryancare bill phase 1 was much shorter than Obamacare, I also got the impression that it was being rammed through Congress before lawmakers could discuss it to their satisfaction, disgruntled lawmakers unsurprisingly voting no if such is the case.
And uniparty lawmakers probably havent informed Trump that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the corrupt feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend in the name of INTRAstate healthcare a minor oversight. /sarc
Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]." -Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]. United States v. Butler, 1936.
With all due respect to Trump, I hope that constitutionally low-information (imo) Trump doesnt get assimilated by the Borg (Star Trek) Congress.
Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!
Remember in November 18 !
Since Trump entered the 16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the 18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist Supreme Court justices off of the bench.
Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February 18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.
While I Googled the primary information above concerning Iowa and New Hampshire, FReeper iowamark brought to my attention that the February primaries for these states apply only to presidential election years. And after doing some more scratching, since primary dates for most states for 2018 elections probably havent been uploaded at this time (March 14, 2017), FReepers will need to find out primary dates from sources and / or websites in their own states.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitutions Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal governments powers.
Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal governments limited powers listed below.
