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

The biggest problem is when the government starts handing out money, which Obamacare does in the forms of subsidies it immediately becomes sacrosanct and institutionalized. If you go back you’re going to alienate a number of people, that number depending upon the size of the handout. So they’re dancing around that. Secondly when you have a new program it requires structure which costs a pretty penny. That structure gets integrated into government. You break it apart over night and chaos follows.
The whole thing is like getting an heroin addict off the drug. Cold turkey may work but its a mess getting through. Or it might kill the patient.

A: It gives Yertle and the other Swamp Dwellers a chance to lie to the voters about actually doing something about Obamacare while simultaneously keeping their corporate owners happy.
