Defund, repeal, tear down.

Nothing of Obamacare should remain.

I would like for obamacare to go the way of the DoDo Bird, but I have mixed feelings due the the situation of a dear family who are really good friends of mine. They are good Christian, hard working, frugal and intelligent people who have never had insurance because they could not afford it. They would never take welfare. He works on a mega farm for $8 an hour. It’s hard back-breaking dangerous work. She stayed home and raised her children, kept a garden, chickens, etc. She will take an odd job when she can get free. When any of them were sick they would go to a local dr. or to the E.R. and whatever the cost they would pay off a little at a time. When they applied for medicaid they were turned down because he made too much money. Life has not been easy for them but they never complain. For the first time in their lives they have insurance because of the subsidies of obamacare. What is the answer for those who refuse to live on welfare yet are refused medical care? IN the past I would overpay her for helping me clean or babysit if I knew they were paying for medical care. The system leaves them out because they originally refused to live off the system. I think I will be very sad if they lose their insurance (they pay their share but subsidy makes it possible.)
