“Incrementalism was not used to get ZeroCare rammed down our throats... “
Seriously? It’s been decades of incrementalism. Medicare, medicaid, the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA), the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) program ... bit by bit they strove for what passed as the ACA ... with the hope that it would fail and bring the country to “single payer.”
So, we can correspondingly reverse those programs piece by piece. It doesn’t have to happen in one fell swoop, nor would it. Clinging to any notion that the ACA and all its components would be wiped out in a single move is fantasy.
I’m not talking about Medicare, medicaid, EMTALA, CHIP, etc. These should be incrementally rolled back.
I am talking about ZeroCare, which was done in one fell stroke with parliamentary procedures. Repealing it should be the same.
The GOP is spineless and worthless.
