Will someone please tell this octogenarian exactly why they cannot just repeal the AFA in its entirety? It seems to me that everything would then return to what it was before Obama. Then they could make the necessary (if any) tweaks.
I don’t think it’s that easy....bureaucracies have been put in place in past 8 years that prevent just a “repeal.”
They passed repeal during the Obama tenure knowing he would veto it. Why don't they do it now? I'm with you, I just don't get it. They can repeal it and no matter what anyone screams about, people will get care while the other plan, a more conservative plan, is passed.
I also don't like this rush aspect - 'the pass it by July 4th' pressure. After seven years, they didn't have a conservative bill ready to pass, after repeal, right out of the gate. It's all so corrupt.
The reality is there are so many Obama holdovers plus D.C. voted 97% for Hillary. So all the Obama people plus long term dems are writing these bills.
