"... Conservatives looked at that and said that’s the main reason people hate Obamacare, we’ve got to deal with that. The problem, though, that we had is that we have a critical mass of members who, even though they campaigned on repealing Obamacare, did not want to roll back the architecture of Obamacare, so we were kind of at a standstill,” he explained. “And then, with the work of people like Mark Meadows and Tom McArthur from New Jersey, what we were able to do is say, ‘Let’s at least give the states the ability to opt out of the Obamacare regulatory structure and set up functioning markets, which will obviously allow people to have cheaper policies and will lower premiums for people.’ ..."

Effin Uniparty/liberal/progressive pr*cks voted how many times to repeal Obamacare, knowing full well it would be vetoed! F*cking lying Republicans!!!!(In Name Only!)
There is only one fact that matters, There is NO Constitutional Authority for the Federal Government to be involved in Health Care of the Citizens. However there is Long Standing Law to Protect the Citizens from Monopolistic Price Fixing and Fraud!~!

No competitive business can maintain 1,000% net profit margins in any segment of their business for any length of time at all, because as soon as someone figures out that you’re making that sort of profit they come in and open a competing business. It will happen every time, simply because the new entrant can undercut the other guy by half on price and still make 500%! There will be dozens of new business entrants within days.
The only way to keep that from happening is to do anti-competitive things, such as conspire with others to fix prices or form “networks” that forcibly lock out competitors.
All of those acts are illegal under law that has stood for more than 100 years yet both State and Federal governments refuse to enforce said laws.
We can solve the “Health Insurance” problem in a literal day by enforcing those laws against everyone in that sector of the economy. But if we do so then the 1,000% profit margins collapse by at least 90% in an afternoon and along with the screwing on the billing end goes a lot of jobs. Health care collapses as a share of the economy from over 19% today back to about 3-4% and this is recognized as the mother and father of all recessions — because it will be.
Just send your Progressive friends to the Mc Arthur Amendment
Fox and Friends had the best lady on explaining before and after her husband's cancer with Helicopter bill equals 1,200.
Cancer came back and bankrupted her under Obama Care
What we need is a national Fire Your Congressman movement.
A mass wave of voting against ANY incumbent. Even if he/she has done some good things in the past.
Only after several rounds of mass firings will these clowns FINALLY start to get the message IMHO.
Have been verifying insurance benefits for docs for 30 years. Until Obamacare came along almost all employer policies had a clause re pre-existing and most were 90 days. If patient had been seen for same condition during the 90 days preceding the appointment coverage was denied. At least in the state of Texas we had lots of people who were in the state high risk pool because they needed to be seen on a regular basis and covered separately but at a higher premium.
Everyone survived and all received medical care at way more affordable costs.
When you cover everyone for everything the cost becomes unaffordable and unsustainable.
The only key fact that matters is that it does nothing to bring the cost of actual healthcare down. And since the insurance companies are not in the business of losing money, that means higher and hhigher premiums, just as in the last 30 years.
Amen, but will fall on deaf ears. And none of that will happen before Medicare and Medicaid collapse the Federal budget.
