I think Ann has been reading Free Republic because she has some very good ideas on how to fix the Health Care debacle. The question is can it be done under the senate rules with a 51 majority. If not then, Houston, we have a problem.

Hi Boomer —

So, we would still have the individual mandates, and taxes?

Should be the new Geico slogan.

So simple even a Republican could do it.

Except it would be a lie.

Because Republicans can’t do anything.

Unless healthcare COSTS are reigned in by prosecuting collusion and price fixing, no plan will work. No insurance company will charge a premium that loses them money.

Insurance is regulated by the states. Its a 10th Amendment issue.

None of that matters. The way to deal with this is to have an insurance company go to one state and offer low-cost insurance plans that don’t comply with the ACA, AHCA, or any other CACA Congress comes up with. It would be politically disastrous for anyone in Washington to take that away from the people who buy that coverage.

Won’t work because an ‘entitlement’ which covers pre-existing conditions has been sold to the American public with Obamacare and several millions of folks are using huge amounts of dollars on healthcare under that entitlement.

No politician is going to vote to take it away from sick people. And no party that wants to remain viable will either.

This is perfect~!

Just make the new law we want, AND KEEP obamacare.

Just let them try to say they are against it...

REMOVE ALL EXEMPTIONS TOO~!

Congress and the entire government HAS TO be in Obamacare, if they like it that much

I heard Ann Coulter on KABC radio yesterday and she said she pays $700 a month for her coverage because of obamacare.

“In America, it shall be legal to sell health insurance on the free market. This law supersedes all other laws, taxes, mandates, coverage requirements, regulations or prohibitions, state or federal.”

Actually, a great idea.

Great idea! Just allow insurance companies to offer plans that the customers want at a price commensurate with their level of risk to the insurance company. In other words, instead of repealing OCare, put a sane system in place to compete with it. OCare will crash faster than a stunned falcon.
