And she is correct
Go nuclear in the Senate and introduce a bill that kills the whole thing. Obamacare. Let private enterprise take over and if necessary let each and every state have their own healthcare.
This entire issue needs to be out of the hands of the federal govt.That’s the only way to fix it.
Paying the thief to rob you (again.) Good one, Ryno.
Hold on. That is a different way of looking at it...from what I heard, it was that if don’t have insurance, and you get sick THEN ask for insurance, the insurance company can charge you more.
Is that right? If so, then I have no problem with that....
This is the Sarah Palin that I’ve known and loved. Her heart’s with the people, not with the party. To the extent that party is right, she’s behind it. To the extent that it’s not, she’s a very effective critic.
Somewhere along the line, this newsworthy post was moved from News/Activism to the more invisible General/Chat forum, akin to the Religion Forum. Not the first time for a FR post regarding Sarah Palin and the news she makes. Just noticing.
WHAT?
Makes no sense at all.
Ms. Palin blames Paul Ryan for this, but it is actually President Trump’s plan, and it is consistent with his longstanding promise of a universal healthcare program. If she wanted a conservative alternative, she could have endorsed a conservative in the primaries instead of Mr. Trump.
I’m still giving him the benefit of the doubt, but if Trump signs onto this plan of Ryan’s, I will consider it the ultimate betrayal!
At this point, I cannot believe Trump would throw those of us who supported him and voted for him under the bus, while embracing the POS who tried to destroy him during the primaries and general.
I’m still trying to come to grips with what Trump meant when he referred to the Ryan’s Health Plan as a “Beautiful Thing.” Pence in recent days also has me feeling very uneasy.
It’s anguishing for me to think of RyanCare as the fulfillment of the MANY promises President Trump made to us to replace and repeal Obamacare. RyanCare does not fulfill that promise. Not even close. In fact, it’s a GIANT step backwards.
I poured my heart and soul and (MUCH money) into supporting President Trump’s nomination and subsequent election based on his many promises (especially his promise to repeal and replace Obamacare) and my strong belief that President Trump was different than every other elected official in my lifetime because I actually expected him to keep his campaign promises.
My only hope is that RyanCare is some kind of ruse for unknown political purposes, such as sinking Ryan’s ship or for buying time or something. I’ll be surprised if RyanCare passes the House and stunned if it passes the Senate and done if President Trump signs it.
If President Trump does in fact try to tout Ryancare as the fulfillment of his campaign promise to repeal and replace Obamacare, then I’m in 100% agreement with your statements that President Trump will lose the support of his supporters and is finished as a President; the GOP would be finished as well. And so would our country.
I can forgive President Trump many things, including being unable to fulfill ALL of his promises, and especially those attempted fulfillments thwarted by opposition that cannot be overcome.
However, I will NOT forgive him if he accepts RyanCare as the fulfillment of his campaign promise to repeal and replace Obamacare. I’d actually rather President Trump do nothing at this point and wait until the GOP has a filibuster-proof Senate in 2018 and then do it right, rather than accept counterproductive measures like RyanCare.
There will never be a true solution as long as “Replace” follows “Repeal”. This is because Replace is just plain unconstitutional. The gov’t has no place butting in the personal business of its citizens and their health care service purchases.
From what I observe, the country is just too far gone to restore it to its original foundation without severe actions. Half the population is too dependent, too drugged up, too dumbed down, and too entitled; and the other half is too tired of working extra jobs to support them in addition to their own families.
