Unfortunately the collapse of Obamacare will end up with taxpayers footing the bill. The courts have already ruled that we have to fund insurance companies that were suffering severe losses. From what’s in this story, I guess there are good things in this bill. But I don’t doubt most of them will be removed by Democrats before it finally passes (if it passes). Like defunding Planned Parenthood. The Dems won’t let that get by.

My understanding is that a full repeal requires 60 votes and we only have 52, but this 3 part fix and replace is done as reconciliation bills which require 51 votes.

That why they are doing it this way. I can except this as a necessary bitter pill.
