- and that Trump will necessarily need to provide the protective safety net he talked about - only a lot cheaper than what we had and what we have now.

And how is he going to do that? Is it even possible? I don't think so. Obamacare is a failure, and the biggest mistake we can make is to replace one failure with another. Repeal it and millions of people will lose coverage. Keep it, or even worse try and replace it, and in the future millions of people will lose their coverage AND the U.S. will have spent trillions in the process. Best to bite the bullet now, repeal it, and let the chips fall where they may.

good morning. He already stated - during campaigns, that there had to be something for those who really couldn't afford health insurance and offered up that the critical needs would be taken care of bu they wouldn't have all the options of those who were paying for policies that they wanted.

If he were to tell the poor - many who were purposely created by Obama and his disaster of an economy, "Tough luck - suffer until you die, but go away." How do you think that would play out?

Some things we consider less than optimal are necessary evils that can be whittled away at with a sound economic policy and long term movement to require those capable of working to do it if they want any sort of assistance and then make that assistance at a subsistence level to encourage them to do better for themselves or grovel without the amenities - accent on "long term".

Has nothing to do with Obama Care - just a reality whether we like it or not.
