This is political theater.

The GOP is all about what the corporate donors want.

(Subsidies, sweetheart deals, exemptions, open borders, idiotic trade deals)

Everyone else can go screw.

Either McConnell can't lead or he's doing this deliberately. I say deliberately.

FR is slow again, too....

Put in a bill simply remitting/rebating the lack of coverage fines for tax year 2015.

Put it up for a vote.

Make these RINOs vote.

Repeal has been their #1 campaign issue for seven years. They won House with it in 2010; they won the Senate with it in 2014; and now they’ve won the WH in 2016.

I bet they didn’t expect to have all three House/Senate/WH, and thus would never have to deliver. Well, they’ve promised themselves into a box and had better deliver now, or there will be hell to pay come election time.

Put a bill in the hopper:
1. allowing insurance companies to sell low-cost coverage for up to 16 days of life-saving hospital inpatient care with a $1,000 deductible, with available riders for:
a. up to $1,000 of outpatient testing with Medicare Part B level co-pays for most Part B covered tests
b. one emergency visit with a co-pay of $300 less $10 for each month of premiums fully paid under the policy prior to the visit
2. allowing purchase of such coverage to be considered qualifying coverage

Your suggestion has merit. It is a practical approach.

In the meantime, I would continue to urge that we talk up the traditional arguments against a Federal role in civilian health care, coupled with an acknowledgment of the Promissory Estoppel phenomenon, which is a factor in preventing an immediate curtailment of Federal involvement. Consider:

Tactics For Victory.

The idea is that we need to continually push the debate in the direction that recognizes what actually works to achieve a better, less expensive, more clearly focused interaction between actual patients & physicians, with out the extremely expensive interference by a meddling bureaucracy!

Medicare for All is now on the table. Free stuff has never been taken away from the voters. We deluded ourselves in thinking otherwise. Also kiss goodbye tax cuts/tax reform that will benefit the middle class.

Alert to Mitch McConnell - Chuck Schumer is NOT your friend.

If he were, he would have already come up with a series of compromises to heal the rifts and shredding of the fabric of “comity” in the Senate.

There are TWO parties of “No” in Washington. Both at odds with Donald Trump and the US citizens who put him in office.

Talk about being unprepared and not up to the job, Both McConnell and Ryan have bolstered their ranks and gotten majorities running on this platform for 7 years and OOPS, they forgot to work on a plan and forgot to engage fellow Republicans to craft a great alternative.

And they criticize Trump??? They both should be replaced with someone who wants to execute on a plan and live up to the promises made to GOP voters.
