I don’t see Ryno repealing Ocare. They will likely try to “fix” it which means leaving a huge expansion of Medicaid in place.
A whole lot of Cantorizing needs to happen.
IF the RINOs in Congress have NOT received the message from the American people by now, they must be removed.
McConnell—Ryan & others need to get their heads on straight.
Obamacare is a disaster. People are forced to buy coverage for things they will never use, such as pregnancy costs for someone like me—who is 77 years old & have already had a hysterectomy. The hospitals e shutting down & many medical people are retiring early because hey cannot live on the reimbursements that Obamacare gives. My own chiropractor no longer takes any Medicare patients. I pay cash.
Illegals are drowning the system & the taxpayers are tired of it all.
The expense of trying to keep up with all the billing requirements is putting small medical offices out of business.
F-ing PISSED!
Since this would fulfill my expectations for them, not so much. Sigh. I wish we could count on Pres. Trump to hit them with a cattle prod, but with his daughter/First Lady in absentia Ivanka “Single Payer System” Trump pulling strings behind the scnes, I am not holding my breath.
Government sucks, big time. Even the founders knew that.
And we let them run a health care business....
WOW!
LIVID!!!!
They passed repeal 6 different times while Obama was there - knowing that he’d veto it and that there was no chance of overriding that veto. Now they are hemming and hawing?
Please, Mr. President, DRAIN THE SWAMP!!! Put pressure on RINO Ryan like crazy. FORCE them to adhere to their promises, as you have done so happily and willingly with your own promises.
ObamaCare needs to be replaced with something that benefits the American taxpayers and their children - NOT the Doctors, NOT the Insurance Companies, Not the AMA, NOT the Lobbyists... something that’s cheaper, better and makes more sense.
Today the Medical Community uses computers to bill people, collect money, and keep records. The system of tomorrow will use computers FOR medical care. Cheaper, safer, and better.
Trump was elected President based on repeal AND replace. The Republican Establishment backed ONLY repeal. I stand with our President. Repeal AND Replace...
ObamaCare must be replaced with a rational medical system that benefits the American taxpayers and their children - NOT the Doctors, NOT the Insurance Companies, Not the AMA, NOT the Lobbyists... something that’s cheaper, better and makes more sense.
Today the Medical Community uses computers to bill people, collect money, and keep records. The system of tomorrow will use computers FOR medical care. Cheaper, safer, and better.
Completely unforgiving.
It would be like hiring a construction company to build a house and they hand you a 2in model.
Mark Steyn nailed it some time ago. He said, words to this effect, that Republicans were like the European Conservatives in that they never repeal a Socialist law, just say they can make it “work better”.
Angry? Don’t know if I’d be angry. It would be what I expect.
Last one out don’t forget the lights.
Obamacare won’t be repealed, because it can’t be repealed - or, more exactly, it can’t be repealed without ushering in huge Democratic majorities in the House and the Senate.
Members of Congress don’t know much, but they can count votes like a pimp in a whorehouse can count money.
Yes, the voters “hate Obamacare and want it repealed”. That is absolutely true.
It’s also absolutely true that they want the ability to buy insurance for pre-existing conditions, want insurance companies to be forbidden to cancel policies for non-payment, want zero payment at the point of service, want their adult children who are smoking dope in a dive in Oakland to stay covered, want their States to expand Medicaid without taxes going up, and so on.
In other words, the only two things they hate about Obamacare are paying for it, and the name.
Republicans in Congress understand this perfectly well, which is why there’s no plan.
And, not coincidentally, Obamacare (and Romneycare) were the culmination of fifty years of “reform”, all of which had the purpose of destroying the private sector or making it impossible for the private sector to function, except for boob jobs and a few other things. And, by 2009, the mission was largely accomplished.
Obamacare was merely a temporary mop-up operation, until full nationalization was possible.
And now, it is.
Like Nixon to China, Trump will propose single payer within the year. It’s really the only way out at this point.
And before you accuse me of favoring it, realize that it will destroy a lifetime of work for me. I don’t like it - I hate it.
But it’s coming, because it’s what the voters, bless their pointy little heads, want.
If they don’t there will be an absolute wipe out in the 2018 midterms. This is not hard to predict....
On a scale of 1 - 10 ... 11.

I, for one, will be extremely angry.
We elected them to do several things...repealing Ocare was pretty high on the list, too.
Dear Congress, stop screwing around...it only takes a one sentence bill....and you have copies of it from last session (when you were posturing that you wanted to repeal Ocare, now we see that was just a BS political lie, right? Dust off one of those one-sentence repeal bills and PASS IT now! It will do wonders for your crediblity with your voters.)
scale of 1-10 and 11. Waiting to see how it plays out and what Trump does. Don’t trust Ryan and the guy in the senate seems spineless. Two more outbursts at townhalls and McConnell will have to change underwear.
