It’s a private solution to the problem, with tax credits.

It's a government subsidy to buy private healthcare. So was Obamacare.

People will be able to make their own choices from a variety of plans. There will be competition. That will drive costs down.

And how will the government guarantee that?

The only problem with this plan, is that every Democrat in the nation will have a vested interest in seeing it fail. Liberal states like mine will probably abuse the system in all manner of ways.

Failure is pretty much built into this plan, as it was with Obamacare, and as it will be for any government run solution to healthcare.

I disagree with your take on it.

Obamacare was headed to single provider, no competition.

Trump’s new plans will cause policies to proliferate, enhanced competition.

Where there is business to be had, insurance companies will flood the market to get ‘their share’.

There’s no government guarantee that there will be a hardware story in every city in the U.S. None the less, there is one just about everywhere.

Failure is not built into this plan. It gives people more choices, encourages competition, and gets government out of the decision making business.

Insurance companies will offer policies that cover a variety of things. People will weigh the policies and pick the one that is best for them.

That is the private enterprise at work. And the idea that a tax cut that comes with it is a bad idea, is the first time I’ve heard Conservatives trash tax cuts.
