Don’t get fooled by the smoke and mirrors. The mandate has a different name but there is still a G’vt prescribed penalty for going without insurance, paid to the insurance company when you apply after a 2 month or more period without insurance. There are new entitlements and new drags on the economy.
It seems most opposition (whether valid or not) is dedicated to keeping politicians in office. They do NOT want a solution, they want to claim the issue and keep up a perpetual fight. (ala 1984 always at war with X)
Todays news showed the freedom caucus was answering to their campaign donors NOT THE VOTERS. I expect the senate is the same.
“upper chamber”?
it is not upper, it is equal to the house.
