Yes, I have heard their were 35 pools but let that go. The point being, if we expanded the pools to all 50 states and a host of other free market reforms we wouldn't have needed Obamacare, it wasn't about care, it was about control.
What no one sees is Insurance was handled by the State Insurance Commissioners and State boards that met to streamline interstate issues and have some commonality in licensing sales reps etc ( and my guess High Risk Pools). Obamacare again took a hammer and dinged the Armor of the 10th Amendment because the "Website" might give you a policy in your state, but it gives you a Federal presence and IMHO stepped on States Power here. To top it off the policies are Federally subsidized and not a before tax purchase, where it would have been if you had a small business,and bought it on your own, it would have been deductible.
There are so many things that are not congruent with Obamacare it is enough to make your head spin and spit pea soup...
This is just your projections on Trump as to what he has planned. He has never said any of that. He’s not about free market capitalism. He’s about croney capitalism. Always has been. That’s how he got rich and was able to buy the presidency. That with a lot of bravado and pomp.
Easy to get rid of ObamaCare.
REPEAL THE ENTIRE ACT. done.
Then, Insurance companies go back into the insurance business. Working folks that can’t get traditional insurance join high risk pools. Truly indigent folks get welfare care. Morbidly obese, smokers with lung cancer, fat & lazy pos’s with diabetes too bad.
Got a house? sell it.
401k? cash it in.
‘70 396SS convertible? sell it.
I’m not paying your way.
Insurance? -Risk-transfer mechanism that ensures full or partial financial compensation for the loss or damage caused by event(s) beyond the control of the insured party.
“Free care” means doctors work for free. Hospitals get free electricity for the lights. Paving contractors re-pave damaged parking lots at no charge. All food and medicine provided are free, so farmers, ranchers and truckers work for free too. Not one person gets paid because healthcare is “free”.
Oh, you want to pay “some people” and “some companies”? You are so crony it makes Her Thighness seem benign.
Insurance and HEALTHCARE are two very different things.
The poor soles in these anecdotal heart tugs are receiving massively subsidized healthcare, NOT insurance.
TAXPAYERS are footing the bill.
“He has never said any of that.”
He has said every word of it and has had it on website since day one.

Everything in the Cruz plan is in the Trump plan.
“Congress should repeal Obamacare and make meaningful reforms to expand Health Savings Accounts, allow individuals to purchase insurance across state lines, and make healthcare more personal, portable, and affordable.”
“That’s how he got rich and was able to buy the presidency”
Trump has spent about $35 million so far
Cruz has spent around $125 Million so far
Who’s buying the presidency?
And Trump built a huge business while Ted made his money on $50 million tort cases that fly in the face of the same laws against high judgement cases he professes to champion.
Go to Trump’s website. That info has been there since day one & it proves you are wrong.
Trump has spent $35,000 per delegate
Cruz has spent $230,000 per delegate
Who’s buying the presidency?
Heidi Cruz:
In 2005, she went to work for Goldman Sachs as a private wealth manager. After serving as a Goldman Sachs for seven years, Cruz was promoted in 2013 to regional head of the Southwest United States for the Investment Management Division in Houston.
Nothing says crony capitalism like Goldman Sachs
134 bucks amonth with a 2000 dollar deductable. Just for myself.
I had jumped through all the hoops to get it and they dropped it because of Obama care.
It was set up like High risk Workmens comp insurance in a way.
What are you lyin Teds brother lyin Fred? Trump has said til he’s blue in the face that he is getting rid of Ocare and replacing it with private insurance.
