Let’s do it RIGHT this time. Let’s include things that will help begin reducing the costs of both health care & medical insurance.
Let’s NOT continue to protect the medical malpractice legal shakedown industry driving up costs and unnecessary tests.
And let’s not DEMONIZED the Freedom Caucus!
Out here in the REAL world the term we use is “sh&%can” !!!
BS! Phase 1) Get RINOs reelected in 2018. Phase 2) Get RINOs reelected in 2020! Phase 3) crickets...
I wouldn’t doubt that Trump will attempt an end-around and appeal to the enemy (aka Democrats), to get something passed.
Screw the RINOs if that is the best they can do. About time the American public got rid of some of these a’holes that have overstayed their welcome.
Repeal & replace did not work; let’s try repeal, then replace.
Replace Ryan and Mitch would be a start.
Howdy Freaken Doodie would do a better job.
We wait. President Trump yanked the teeth out of Obamacare with EO #1. The beast just hasn’t run out of gas yet.
Dropping the "Replace" part would be a good start.
Ping to end paragraph 3 in article
Christian health care
In all this swirl I have yet to hear about how this bill does anything about the supply of doctors? We’re running into a headwind of an older patient population and an incredible shortfall in the number of doctors being produced.
Doesn’t end Christian health plans. Just you you can’t use you tax credits to pay your shares and you can’t use them to pay for ither than insurance. So, the HSA’s are of no benefit to Christian care users?
Thanks for the ping! All this confusion was a result of Ryan cooking up this bill in secret, and not allowing sufficient time to review it. I appreciate having this point clarified, but it should be easier to get the facts. If we could just somehow jettison Ryan, we’d see immediate improvement across the board.
Did the House and Senate not put a bill on President obama’s desk multiple times, only to have him not sign it? I say lets start there for openers.
Repeal. Only.
Then walk away.
What about the Republican submitted bills that were ignored in 2009, the free market ones? Pull ‘em out, polish ‘em up and have at it!
I good with that. The new Mo Brooks bill would work as well.
I’m not a big fan of Ryan or Mitch either, but honestly, there are simply too many moderate Republicans, aka Democrats, in both the House and Senate. Even IF Ryan was a hard core conservative, he wouldn’t be able to pass much of anything, and the press is always going to blame conservatives regardless. The finger is never, ever pointed at the moderates. It’s always those “evil conservatives” who aren’t willing to compromise.
The only way to do that is to remove the requirement to cover pre-existing conditions and the prohibition against capping total benefits paid out. Without those the insurance company's liability is unlimited.
Let’s NOT continue to protect the medical malpractice legal shakedown industry driving up costs and unnecessary tests.
Half the states in the country have enacted some form of tort reform capping malpractice payouts. In none of those states is there any evidence that it's lowered health care insurance premiums or reduced the number of tests ordered.
