If the bill doesn’t repeal Obamacare or lower healthcare insurance costs, then just what does it do?

FGS just leave it alone and let the Dems own Obamacare. Maybe one of these days the Dems will understand why their nominees are losing elections.

I am glad Ron Johnson is on board. I figured he would be unhappy from the left.

Well, that’s that.

And you could add McCain and Graham, I’d bet, just on general anti-GOP principles.

This really sounds like O-Care light.

However, I did get one laugh out of this today. I saw Chuck Shumer on TV just an hour after it was released, carrying on about how this was done in secret and how it would have a shortened debate and legislative schedule before the vote. He was outraged! It was hilarious, after what the Dems did to ram O-care through in the first place.

If Mitch McConnell is responsible you can expect it to stick to your boots.

“Polishing a turd isn’s repealing a turd.”

Yes, but one of the sad facts of the U.S. Senate is that they deeply love turds.

People need to sign up for health shares and by-pass the government and the middleman.

Good. Mark Levin has been describing details and ferociously warning against it for weeks.

" we are not ready to vote for this bill, but we are open to negotiation and obtaining more information before it is brought to the floor"

Contrast with "But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it "

I haven’t finished yet on reading this 142 page bill, BUT:

I have reservations here, I don’t know Rand Paul except he is from Kentucky...(haven’t vetted him that much, but will be doing so)

Ron Johnson, will have to look at his record and vet him...

Mike Lee (R) Utah, I don’t need to go any further to tell that if he doesn’t like it, there must be something good in the bill...Lee smells miles away before you ever see him...

Ted Cruz (R) Texas, watching him during the campaign, the lies, the under handed things he did, working with Paul Ryan on the TTP bill, have friends in Texas that want him out period...

So this is where I am at, I will be reading and re reading this bill, and I’m not taking any media accounts on what they think, they are all liars...

I demand that whatever is passed, the Senate, House and their staffs all have to have it.

The gold plated plan they have now becomes extinct.

This Congress needs three health care financing bills.

Bill 1 would repeal ObamaCare in its entirety.

Bill 2 would state that the Congress has no Constitutional authority to be in the health care business.

Bill 3 would state that Congress does have the Constitutional authority to regulate interstate commerce and will allow insurance companies to engage in interstate commerce.

Obamacare (aka: the “affordable healthcare act) needs to be shitcanned now.

Healthcare and health insurance rates are skyrocketing out of control. The current system is bleeding Americans dry.

Even with high cost users, the rates are way out of whack for what we get in return.

What really sucks is that illegals get top notch health care, and I, a tax paying American who pays for his own insurance has to stand in line behind them, and gets treated like SHIT because I’m not the preferred mexican border jumper.

“Rand Paul, Mike Lee, Ron Johnson, and Ted Cruz — said in a joint statement. The draft bill would not repeal Obamacare and lower healthcare costs, they said.”

Good for them. This bill is reportedly a warmed over version of ObummerCare. No doubt it was written by lobbyists and rubber stamped by McConnell as ready to go.

The sad thing is that only 4 Republicans are opposed to this Dim-light turkey.

Good! They are actually doing the Republicans and Trump a favor. If they pass this thing they get to own the Obamacare stench and lose in the future. Thank you to these 4 thinking men.

Let us not miss the real problem and solution.

The issue is greedy, for profit hospitals, insurance and drug and MD hiring corporations making huge profits off sick people.

The only solution is to get the greed as well as the bureaucracy out of health care and put it back in hands of doctors and patients.

The corporatist, globalists, and politicians beholden to those for profits are not going to jeapordize their profits.

Back to reasonably regulated charitable entities.
