Why?!?!? Why do we have to have something to replace something that didn’t exist in our 200 plus year history until several years ago?!

Health insurance is not listed in the constitution.

It may sound cold, but it is not a right.

Repeal it and let market forces do their thing.

I agree...we did without government insurance for over 200 years, so WTF is so urgent about “replacing” something we didn’t want to begin with?

Kill Obamacare dead, and be done with it!

That's a bit oversimplified.

If 0bamacare is repealed, we're returned to the situation before it existed.

And that situation was by no means one which "let market forces do their thing".

That's why any repeal must include provisions which mitigate the situation as it existed before 0bamacare was passed.

Make no mistake: when 0bama initially got this piece of sh!t passed with a Democrat Congress, you can bet your last dollar that they did it in such a way as to absolutely prevent a repeal in the future. They put in every conceivable obstacle, bureaucratic or otherwise. Repeal & replace is a gargantuan task, if anyone expects the situation to improve—not merely improve over 0bamacare, but improve over the situation that existed before 0bamacare.

So any process of repealing 0bamacare must include addressing the conditions that prevailed which led to something like 0bamacare being proposed in the first place.

Governing is hard sometimes, and we should expect it to be especially so in cases such as this.

So everybody take a deep breath. This, too, shall pass...

Because:
poor people can vote,
there are still 48 democrats in the Senate,
The mainstream media is against you just because your not democrat.
Repeal the bill totally and the headlines and MSM tv outlets will lead with every person who suffers due to the repeal for the next 4 years.

*** “Health insurance is not listed in the constitution”***

If it had been listed in the Constitution it would have sounded Like This

“Congress shall make no Law... “

Actually that is how easy it is to be A Supreme Court Justice, Read the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and just remember these Four words

“Congress shall make no Law... “

Anything that remotely does not sinc up is Not Constitutional

Ticks me Off that Congress doesn’t take this very basic approach to everything they do ... (Presidents too)

That witch hillery is the “living and breathing document” #**# and that goes all the way back to hillerycare.
(when that *##* Sl*## bitch wasn’t selling us out to our enemies she was trying to dilute our Liberty and Freedom by attacking our Founding Documents.
That F*#**#g C*3** is as Evil as anything and none can change my mind of that Fact.
