This author’s argument is precisely the fly-paper that the promoters of this steaming pile piece of legislation wanted. Get their foot in the door, cancel millions of policies, jack the rates through the roof, and then start in with the wailing and gnashing of teeth if it get’s repealed. No wonder they call it the Washington Compost.

If these are the stakes, many liberals argue, then ending Obamacare is immoral.

He said liberals and immoral in the same sentence. What a joker!

Replace Obamacare with TaxFree Health-savings accounts.

They are simple to implement and dont cost the taxpayer a Dime.

Obamacare is already killing people when their hospitals close from the Medicare cuts that come with it.

How many have died because they lost medical coverage because of Obamacare, or now have delayed or deficient treatment?

If state lawmakers would wake up and stop the feds from robbing taxpayers with constitutionally indefensible taxes used for vote-winning intrastate healthcare purposes, the states could use such taxes to fund state healthcare programs. Tenth Amendment-protected RomneyCare is kind of an example of that.

Could not have said it better myself.

Like Medicare, cover the "big stuff" like CABG and dialysis.

For the "small stuff", like a sinus infection, people can pay out of pocket for a more "complete" coverage plan.

Or just cash on the barrel.

Absolutely no reason that EVERYONE must fit into an Obamacare scheme.

Kind of like the Michelle Obama lunch rules.

Yes, there's a problem with obesity.

But making every kid eat the low-calorie slop makes no sense.

Sure some obese kid might benefit. But why punish the football player, or the 80 lb. girl who NEEDS more nutrients?

One size does NOT fit all.

The "republicans" need to pull their trunks out of their asses and come up with a workable plan.

Just trimming the edges of Obamacare is the exact wrong approach.

I believe that most evidence has found that people will die regardless of whatever political system is in place. Furthermore, people will die no matter how many medical advances are made. Take it to the bank, you will die. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 centuries from now, but you will die.

Odd that democrats didn’t give a rats butt about the number of people who actually lost insurance and docs as a result of the grand obama sire cluster.
