The myth that a complete replacement package has to be in place the moment Obamacare is repealed refuses to die
First congressional Republicans said they couldnt repeal Obamacare because they didnt have full control of Congress.
Then when they gained control of both chambers of Congress congressional Republicans said they couldnt repeal Obamacare because they didnt control the White House.
Not an executive order, a waiver. Remember there are waiver provisions in the law (unions have sought and received them). I’d grant all U.S. citizens an exemption just before I started my inaugural address. Then smile at Obama. Anyone that wanted to stay in could.
Three years is just stupid. They could lose the Senate in the mid-term elections Repeal should come immediately. They can always use a sunset date for when the repeal becomes effective, but the legislative repeal must be immediate.
Someone should explain to McConnell as forcefully as someone explained to Reid (did you see that eye?) that 0bamakare is gone.
what a shock /s.
ah well, it was always going to be Trump vs the uniparty.
We’re supposed to trust some Canadian news source? Don’t we enough domestic #FakeNews?
They are going to pass a repeal bill that sets a date that Obamacare ends, the date will in the future, 2/3yrs. This gives Republicans time to put together a replacement and will force Democrats up for reelection in Trump states to cave before the clock runs down, leaving over 20 million without insurance.
Yes: Willard The Rat Romney and his communistic (un-)healthcare.
Do something useful; for our side:
Repealing one unworkable plan with another is not a solution. Repeal, don't replace.
The Republicans ran very well against Obamacare. What makes you think that the Democrats won't be able to run just as well against Son of Obamacare?
Get rid of Obamacare and what's to prevent the market from healing itself?
When you are pulling a Bandaid off does it hurt less to yank it off immediately or pulling it off slowly over a longer period of time?
This isn’t a band aid...it’s metallic stiches over a deep wound that’s been festering for 4 years.
And letting it fester for a few more years will do what exactly?
Are you gonna bitch about everything that happens like this, every day? Get lost.
Most people don't like Obamacare and want it gone. Sorry that you aren't one of them.
