I need to see some wood before I call it a tree.
Let’s all see what he’s going to do. He’s come up with both good and bad plans in the past — most of them good — so let’s see what he will implement.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this wisconsin interest ping list.
Why must there now be an Obamacare “replacement” instead of a flat-out repeal? Socialist b@stards.
Sounds like he has been listening. Prayers for his efforts and success at working from we the people instead of dictating from the establishment down
New schedule on presidential reach arounds?
Because “repeal” leaves the country with NO health system besides cash on the barrel head. Most of the health insurers have already gone out of business.

why? Because the liberals and the media have decided that the old status quo was unacceptable. Tens of millions uninsured and all that; we can’t go back to that, say the liberals.
This issue is a good example where the liberals and the media are setting the terms of the debate; setting up the parameters of what should happen. They have decided that we can’t just repeal Obamacare and start over. Instead, if anything happens, it needs to enhance or deal with aspects of healthcare which Obamacare didn’t adequately address.
The unanswered question here is, how could there be any problems with Obamacare, when the big Dem. majority in both houses of Congress at the time rammed this through? In their wisdom, did they create a program with flaws?? Good Democrats passed legislation which caused unforeseen consequences???/ Nancy P. is this true????? Say it ain’t so......
Until I see something, all I hear is “Blah, Blah, Blah....”
Watch him closely. He cannot be trusted.
His loyalty is to The Cheap Labor Express.
Ambiguously worded. What consensus and with who? I don't trust that he won't do a deal with Obama and a GOPe and Rat coalition
I am not insane and expecting anything different from the guy whos let me down in the past.
I am open to the very small chance i can be pleasantly surprised.

American ‘Duma’ ... Now in session.
Sounds like he’s getting ready to work with President Trump. He knows he can’t get away with sucking eggs like Boner did when Pres. Trump hits town, so he’d might just as well start to straighten up and fly right, right now.
I am being cautiously optimistic.
All that needs to be remembered is this is a RINO speaking.
is he going to fundamentally change things?
I trust this RINO about as far as I can throw my house.
As a business owner, I know that the old system didn’t work either. My desire to provide at a minimum, a catastrophic health care plan to my employees was killing us a year at a time. Unfortunately, there are a group of people in this country that are basically “uninsurable” due to their preexisting conditions and high cost of treatment. They need to be included in a pool that is subsidized in some way so as to take their costs out of the larger, general pool to reduce costs for the rest of us. I disagree with the idea of “mandatory” participation, but the reduced number of companies offering affordable basic plans has made the liberal goal of single payer less and less avoidable for the self employed unemployed. Essentially making them a high risk group similar to drivers that are uninsurable due to multiple high costs claims and DUI, etc.
