Csting his ObamaCare replacement bill as the only chance to save America from a complete health-care collapse, Speaker Paul Ryan Sunday countered his conservative critics who say the bill fails to make good on Republicans' promise to repeal ObamaCare.
"Understand the speakers plan doesnt repeal ObamaCare," a member of the House Republicans' Freedom Caucus, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), said Sunday. "Even Charles Krauthammer said that, called it ObamaCare Lite, as you said earlier. It doesnt bring down premiums and it doesnt unite Republicans. So, why not do what we all voted for just 15 months ago, clean repeal, and then get focused and build some momentum to actually replace ObamaCare with something thats going to bring down costs?"
Ryan said his bill, called the American Health Care Act, is in fact the only way to successfully repeal ObamaCare.
"Look, when you are a governing party getting consensus among your wide, big-tent party, not everybody doesnt get what they want, but we are getting much better policy here," the Speaker of the House said of his conservative critics. "Let me put it this way: Obamacare is collapsing. If we just did nothing, washed our hands of the situation, we would see a further collapse of the health insurance markets. So we feel an obligation to step in front of that collapse and replace this law with one that works, that has more freedom."

I don’t understand why some people hard time looking up something? It’s very simple. This is not rocket science.
Have you heard of Google? Just put in Kew words or phrases you are looking for an hit “return” key. You may have to change your words around, but it will come right up. There are other search links called Yahoo, Dog PILE, BING, etc... You can use to turn up more results.
Anyhow, here is a quote from the link talking about President Trump’s executive order.
“What President Trump is doing is, he wants to get rid of that Obamacare penalty almost immediately, because that is something that is really strangling a lot of Americans to have to pay a penalty for not buying,” Kellyanne Conway, Trump’s senior adviser, said on ABC News “This Week” on Sunday.”

HOGWASH!! The Supreme Court has already ruled that Health Insurance is a GIFT not an entitlement.
Repeal All Waivers
-Eliminate ALL Taxpayer Funded Health Insurance for ALL Federal Employees except members of the US Armed Forces.
This Alone will Save Obamacare when 24 Million Government Employee Union Members that are Ineligible for Subsidies enroll in the Plan.
OBAMACARE CAN BE SAVED like this.
What RINO Ryan doesn’t get is there a quit a few of us that would love nothing more than to see the entire house of cards collapse....
You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.
-Rahm Emanuel
Paul Ryan is creating a crisis that he thinks he can exploit.
-PJ
oh bullcrap.
scare scare scare isn’t a trust-building tactic
the collapse will be the collapse of Ryan and other gop-e in 2018. It will be the year of the primary. Bigly.
“Whatever Ryan is for, Im against.”...............
Too bad there aren’t more of us.
“RYAN WARNS: IF WE DONT PASS MY BILL, THE SYSTEM IS GOING TO COLLAPSE”..........
“My Bill”???????????? Sounds like someone is getting a big reward if “His Bill” gets approved. Follow the money trails and somewhere hidden deep within “HIS BILL” there is a payoff.

Other than Ryan looking like pugsley he should tell why he predicts all this disaster and also tell us why two years ago a repeal was passed but vetoed by barky but without reconciliation and all the other crap he is mouthiung about.
Good. Let is collapse.
Hey Speaker Ryno, what's worse - Ride to the rescue when 0bama's crappy system collapses, or
foist 0bamacare Lite on the voters that will please Absolutely No One and itself collapse in a couple of years?
Paul Ryan, the epitome of political mediocrity.
America can do much better than this.
Yep...Step #0.
GOOD.
Either cleanly repeal it NOW, or let it collapse forcing a repeal.
DON’T REPLACE.
Just get the gov’t out of the way.
Allow interstate commerce in health insurance/care. (That it’s illegal is INSANE.)
Implement tort reforms so doctors don’t have to pass on their own insane insurance requirements to patients.
Fix the “preexisting conditions” problem (not simple, but a systemic problem that must be resolved).
Compel service providers to give a “list price, cash” cost on request.
We don’t want Romneycare any more than we wanted Obamacare.
Some of us cubicle-bound do not have the luxury of googling everything under the sun, oh enlightened one...............
He’s the Al Gore of health insurance.
Let it collapse.
Thank you!..................
Good then you can Google it on break, lunch break or when you get home.
Not mine. We’re paying through the nose for private health insurance. Maybe the freebie system will collapse.
