Nancy Pelosi is leading the charge when it comes to using a shock & awe strategy of projection to save the law that had to be passed so America could find out what was in it: null
There’s no pill that can fix this level of delusion and brazenness:
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, preparing for her fourth straight Congress in the minority — she lost her speakership in 2010, in an anti-Obamacare backlash — now says it’s the GOP that will pay a political price if it moves to dismantle the Affordable Care Act.
“You break it, you own it,” the California Democrat said.
[…] “They really admit that by repealing the Affordable Care Act, it will increase costs,” Mrs. Pelosi said.
Yeah, heaven forbid costs go up (click to enlarge):

tripple that
String this evil bitch up from a tree already, rope is cheap.
Put a sock in it, Nan!
“You break it, you own it.”

It was broken FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, Nazi Pelousy, you crazy moonbat.
Actually you just need to dump the mandate and freeze the subsidies. Everyone will ultimately drop their coverage and it would be easy enough to blame it on the Dems.
The price to be paid is the left will never vote Republican again. Oh wait a minute, they don’t anyway.
——“You break it, you own it,” the California Democrat said.——
This women has said some really stupid things, but this ranks right up there..
Obamacare is already broken, and she and Obama already own it...
GOP had nothing to do with it...
As mentioned in related threads, please consider the following about former Speaker Pelosi’s unconstitutional Obamacare.
Regardless what lawless Obama’s state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices want everybody to think about the constitutionality of Obamacare, Pelosi, Reid (17th Amendment) and lawless Obama not only irresponsibly rammed unconstitutional Obamacare through the system without letting lawmakers read it (insanity), but Pelosi violated her oath to protect and defend the Constitution by blanantly ignoring the following.
Pelosi wrongly ignored a repeatedly proposed House resolution to propose a necessary healthcare amendement to the Constitution to the states for ratification.
"Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States regarding the right of citizens of the United States to health care of equal high quality." —H. J. Res. 30.
So the anti-constitutional republic Washington cartel wrongly established Obamacare without the required consent of the Constitution’s Article V state supermajority, one of many such social spending programs established since the time of the FDR Administatration.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Patriots need to support Trump in putting a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes (Gibbons opinion above). Once unconstitutional federal taxes are stopped then the states will probably find a tsunami of new revenues that they won’t know what to do with, each state establishing its own healthcare program for starters.
"The States should be left to do whatever acts they can do as well as the General Government.” —Thomas Jefferson to John Harvie, 1790.
And should the states ultimately decide that the feds have a “magic wand” to run a national healthcare program better than the states can, then there is nothing stopping the states from amending the Constitution to grant the feds such powers.
On the other hand, if Trump and patriots fail to completely drain the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp with Trumpcare and many existing federal spending programs, many programs based on stolen state powers and associated stolen state revenues, then it is only a matter of time before another lawless president again works in cahoots with corrupt Congress to steal state powers, using those stolen powers to oppress the sovereign states and their citizens.
Below are a few more healthcare-related excerpts from case opinions decided by previous generations of state sovereignty-respecting justices. The excerpts help to clarify that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for INTRAstate healthcare purposes.
With respect to the Obamacare mandate which institutionally indoctrinated justices wrongy declared to be constitutional imo, note the second entry in the list, the excerpt from Paul v. Virginia. In that case the Court had clarified that the feds have no Commerce Clause power to regulate insurance regardless if an insurance policy is negotiated across state borders.
"Inspection laws, quarantine laws, health laws of every description [emphasis added], as well as laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c., are component parts of this mass." - Justice Barbour, New York v. Miln., 1837.
"4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce [emphasis added] within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract of indemnity against loss." - Paul v. Virginia, 1869. (The corrupt feds have no Commerce Clause (1.8.3) power to regulate insurance.)
"Direct control of medical practice in the states is obviously [emphases added] beyond the power of Congress." - Linder v. United States, 1925.
Ooooooh.....the little paper tiger!
“I’m melting! I’m melting!” LOL
How is she doing since the house fell on her?
Actually, they'll pay a political price if the DON'T dismantle it.
There they go again with their zero-sum assumptions. She thinks that by killing it that the insurance companies will cease to write any overages. The free market will bear fruit almost immediately and some of those large campi like BC/BS have been building will all of a sudden see fewer cars in their parking lots and for lease signs for the soon to be empty floors and entire buildings as they strive to once again keep their profit margins.
What needs to be kept a very close eye is any upramping of “Rainmaker” claims being rejected as well. But, they brought this crap on themselves and I have absolutely no pity for them at all. I do see the opportunity for a whole new healthcare payment system but the Medicare Billing Codes also need a huge overhaul. All the hospitals use it and we all pay for it. What would have insurance billed 56,000 for a simple hernia repair I did the shopping for a cash payment options and ended up paying only 4200 for everything. This is where HSA’s would be very beneficial. Just imagine if there could exist a group plan structure for the same.
WELL SAID!
Repealing is half the equation. The political price the Republicans pay, if any, will depend on what they do and what else happens after the repeal.
The people that lost the election were the ones that paid the price. Keep up the stupidity nan.
That is exactly right.
It isn't. And I'm wondering the same thing.
