Trump signals he’s serious on ObamaCare repeal
The Hill ^ | Nov. 29, 2016 | Jonathan Swan

Posted on 11/29/2016 5:46:10 PM PST by Innovative

By picking Georgia Rep. Tom Price as his point man on healthcare, Donald Trump calmed conservatives who have been concerned about the president-elect’s commitment to overturning ­ObamaCare.

Trump’s announcement on Tuesday that he wanted Price to be secretary of Health and Human Services suggests the president-elect is serious about repealing ­ObamaCare.

Trump has said all along:

“Repeal and replace”.

“Repeal and replace”.

Just saying. :D

The liberals will react with horror, that Trump wants to revoke insurance for millions on Obamacare policies.

That’s not really what will happen, but the media will pick up a meme, to the effect that Trump wants to throw people off their insurance.

Thus far, Trump has been perfect, except for considering Mittens for SoS, if he’s doing so.

Repeal first. Then spend a few years figuring out a replace.

I’m picking a semi-random thread to remind us all - thankfully - that had Hillary won she would have continued - or probably worsened - all of Obama’s insane seditious policies.

Good. It needs to go. It was always a mistake. The problem is the amount of bureaucracy that has been put into place since it was passed.

As long a replace follows repeal by at least 18 months.

“Kill Obamacare, repeal Medicaid and Medicare and watch medical priced come tumbling down.”

Well reasoned! Only problem is a very weakened, poor middle class believe the other guy should foot their bills. When deprived of heart surgery or neurosurgery, they will scream bloody murder! Truly will be a civil war between the old and the young.

I surely hope Trump doesn’t give in to the GOPe. Obamacare should be revealed and not replaced. Same is true for Medicare and Medicaid. Government should have nothing to do with health care. Period.

I would rather die than accept Obamacare. People who can’t pay a doctor or a hospital and can’t get voluntary charity care need to figure out a Plan B that doesn’t include stealing from the taxpayers.

Most diseases can be treated naturally with essential oils, a good diet, positive thinking and sincere prayer. By paying the medical bills for the non-productive, we inhibit their resourcefulness and damage their reliance on faith. That is the REAL agenda behind Obamacare, Medicare and Medicaid.

There is no Constitutional right to heart surgery or neurosurgery.

No matter. The dims and 0bemba won this time.

Repeal of 0bembacare will only have to be ‘replaced’ with some other government-controlled health care which is what the dims wanted - more socialism.

I have not heard even one person except me say that we should simply go back to the way things were before 0bembacare but then the dims would never allow that to happen. We are now stuck with socialized medicine.
