Repost - nobody expected them to vote directly on the House Bill w/o trying to reconcile differences by writing a similar Bill and playing their political games first.
so anything to do with taxes has to be out ?
so the “penalty” for no coverage will probably be dropped ?
As predicted.
And the Dog and Pony show continues, Obamacare will never be repealed, repaired, or replaced. Congress will see to it that their pimps on K street will get the cash and the American People continue to get Raped.
When and ONLY WHEN Government Lives under the Same Laws as us will anything substantial happen
OBAMACARE Can be Saved!!
There are about 22 MILLION Public Employee’s Nationwide that are Ineligible for Subsidies, this infusion of New Paying Customers will SAVE OBAMACARE. the SEIU and every other Public Employee UNION fully Endorse Obamacare and have held numerous rallies in support thereof.
Let’s Give them what they want!
I believe our Public Employees deserve the Best Health Care America has to offer, and that is the Official Government Health Care Plan, Obamacare. So why don’t you quit pussyfooting around and Proudly Proclaim your desire to see that ALL Federal Employees receive the Finest, Most Affordable Health Care the US has to offer, OBAMACARE.
All the Money currently wasted on these inferior high priced cadillac plans can be diverted to the Wall.
There is ONLY ONE WAY to make it happen:
Executive Orders or Legislation, the chance of CONgress doing it are the same as OJ Confessing, so I am choosing Executive Orders.
1. All waivers to the Affordable Care act are hereby repealed.
2. There shall be NO funds drawn from the treasury to pay for Health Insurance for ANY Federal Employee except Members of the Armed Services.
3. ALL Federal Employees except members of the US Armed Services, SHALL purchase their own personal and Family Health Insurance from the Affordable Care Exchange in the state they legally reside.
4. There shall be NO Medicaid Reimbursement funds allocated to any State that does not have 100% of their Public Employees enrolled in the Affordable Care Act.
And to make sure it is Bipartisan, President Trump should VETO it every Time and FORCE them to Override his Veto to Repeal this Monstrosity.
Sign these 4 orders and it will be FULLY REPEALED in Less than 30 days.
NOT UNTIL, Anyone want to make a BET???
When and ONLY WHEN Government Lives under the Same Laws as us will anything substantial happen
Why did they wait till now to say that? Repubs do not know how to play politics (this is so amateurish...)
...and since does any ‘common sense’ person believe anything that the media, talking heads and radio show hosts tell us that is the ‘truth’...
If you don’t hear it out of President Trump’s mouth, don’t believe it...
Really, really hate the Sen. GOP and their Chamber of Commerce/Establishment/K Street pals.
Why did they wait? Maybe so that their uniparty colleagues in the House could cast a vote that looked good while accomplishing jack spit? Just a thought.
They will create their own bill that will do nothing but add more government support for ObamaCare.
I hope and pray the House Freedom Group will reject and Trump will let ObamaCare implode on its own. (Bannon’s plan all along) Passing the house bill yesterday was nothing but a delay tactic to draw our the Dem's to further support ObamaCare and own it in the 2018 elections.
Get the rope.
Wow. I completely agree. Thank you for a different view, one I hadn’t considered. One that has the added bonus of dnc union donations drying up. It’s a win/win. Well done!
Precisely. Did they not know a healthcare bill was coming to them from the House?
“A Senate proposal is now being developed by a 12-member working group.”
And if you believe that's ever gonna happen, I've got some nice oceanfront property in Tennessee I wanna sell you!
what mistakes ?
all tax related bills must originate in the house.
If the senate decides to draw up a bill from the ground up, it can’t include anything about taxes.
Since Justice Roberts ruled that a “penalty” is actually a tax, the senate has to leave it out of their bill.
We probably wont see a repeal of Obamacare in my lifetime, much less the next couple of years.
