Dumping Obamacare falls under the do no harm rule. Tis better to have no plan than to have Obamacare. Much like it is better to have an empty chair in the Oval Office than having Obama occupy it.The simple fact of the matter is that we cannot afford Obamacare as a nation. Contrary to Dem representations that it pays for itself, it does not and it will drive the deficit and debt up. Additionally I have seen projections that this pipedream of covering people with preexisting conditions effortlessly is just that - a pipedream. I have seen estimates that premiums on those currently insured who will be subsidizing folks with preexisting conditions by merging them in the healthy pool will rise 35% to 100% over time to compensate private carriers required to cover those with pre exiting conditions. All of this is hidden from view.But this argument will fall on deaf ears of your Dem friends as they have no concept of the realistic impact of deficits and debt on the future. Their mindsets are focused exclusively on the benefits side of the ledger without regard to cost. That is why they are Democrats.
