I could have sworn we already had a plan in place. It was called free market.

We don’t have a free market in medicine and haven’t for decades.

Government already controls an enormous amount of pricing through Medicare and Medicaid patients. That’s not even touching the licensing and other barriers to entry that every state has in the field of medicine and insirance.

Ending ACA isn’t going to be a return to free markets.

The question is how prepared will the GOP be for the fallout.

I disagree. As an employer of 3 small companies, I had many options within the free market to choose which I thought best for my employees and companies regarding coverage. Yes, they were over-regulated, but I had the choice. Medicare and Medicaid are different animals. You're talking apples and oranges.
