By:

THIS WEEK, REPUBLICANS took the first step toward dismantling the Affordable Care Act: the Senate passed a budget resolution that says the best way to take a chunk out of the federal budget deficit is to defund Obamacare. The measure is set to come to a vote in the House today, and chances are it will pass there, too—even though the GOP has no clear replacement plan lined up. Which is not an ideal situation for health insurance recipients, or insurers themselves. Here’s why. Obamacare has plenty of critics, but scrapping it in its entirety is rash and will benefit few—particularly not the over 20 million people who didn’t have healthcare coverage before it was enacted. But what seems to be in the process of happening now—-cutting off the programs’ money without changing the underlying regulations—is kind of even worse. For all the talk of how they’d benefit from a truly free market, not even health insurance companies make out well on this one. No business likes an unstable market, and Republican lawmakers are in the process of creating just that: a sudden lack of subsidies could cause some healthy customers to opt out, leading to an insurance landscape flooded with (high-risk) sick people staggering under the burden of increased premiums. Advantage, nobody. |

Obama shouldn't have made such a shambles and left Trump and the republican admin. to sort out the mess.

You have to give Trump a chance, at least 4 years before you start the constant criticism
|
|
By:
he's had a long time to work out an alternative plan but seems to have nothing
"ordinary" Americans are soon going to wake up and smell the coffee |
|
By:
A plan cannot be implemented overnight, it will take years.
|
|
By:
there isn't a plan
|
|
By:
No plan is better than a bad plan. Often solutions to complex problems evolve over time, and surprisingly quickly if the right people are involved. That is what America is good at, they are a very practical people.

By:
at least you've admitted he has no plan. you're getting there...
|
|
By:
No I said that I don't know if he has a plan or not, I don't want to know everything. I am happy to let things happen and give him a chance, or even for a plan to evolve.
That's often the best way, That's how things work in a great and creative democracy like American. |

NO NO NO I condemn the man out of hand. After all, at least three interviewees on ch4 hit the godwin's law button. I mean - people are hurling bricks, smashing windows and setting light to cars. He must be some evil man!!!

In your world lfc if Trump took the economy down the drain, started a war etc we'd have to wait 4 years before critisising him? |
