In related matters, what is the actual stated Trump / GOP plan to replace ACA?
Does anybody know what the stated position is on a replacement other than mouthing more about “free market”?
Not sure what’s in it, but it will be passed the same hour as repeal.
Oh, I don’t know, really. What I really remember is Nancy Pelosi ‘mouthing’ something about “being deemed passed” when the PPACA bill came back from the Senate into House/Senate reconciliation. I remember the PPACA has hundreds of instances of “....at the Secretary’s [HHS]discretion...... And, I remember that no Republicans voted for it. Yeah, that kind of ‘mouthing’.
I don’t give a red tinker’s damn about what comes after PPACA. That abortion needs to be removed - quickly and completely, and then we can deal with the aftermath. What part of the Constitution says that the government has to subsidize healthcare? Why is it always “a bad law has to have a replacement?”
What's wrong with the free market? What's wrong with a national market for healthcare plans rather than limiting availability to one state? What's wrong with removing all of the mandates forcing you to buy something you don't want or penalizing you financially for not buying what they want you to buy?
Markets work. Government mandates and control do not work. It's really that simple.
Have you read Trump’s position paper on the topic?
