Isn’t Ann Coulter correct? Just get rid of it. Let 90% buy their own insurance from the free market and then decide to do about the other 10%?

We have 80 million on Medicaid and 45 million on Medicare, both single payer systems. Obamacare was supposed to be the transition to single payer for all. He said so himself. The Dems knew that Obamacare would implode. Hillary would have then presented the solution: Go to single payer for all. Problem solved.

Three quarters of the 14 million people who got coverage thru Obamacare were added to the Medicaid rolls. Medicaid doesn't guarantee access to the healthcare system. 40% of doctors do not accept Medicaid patients because the reimbursement levels are so low. Our emergency rooms continue to be healthcare clinics for the uninsured (many of them illegal aliens) and those recipients who find it difficult to locate a doctor who will accept them.

IMHO, it seems Ryan's healthcare bill continues to lose support. Primarily because it does not reduce premiums adequately.....deep enough, or soon enough.

I pray they'll just adopt the coulter plan...it seems they're getting closer to less government interference.
