GOCUBSGO 77 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 While Obamacare is certainly flawed, it gave more people access to healthcare then ever before. Without it, millions more would be left with no insurance. It's not a long term solution, but that's what the right and more specifically, Donald Trump campaigned on. The promise that they would repeal and replace Obamacare and provide great healthcare at lower rates. A promise that helped them get elected. A promise that they haven't and likely won't fulfill anytime soon. Your party has had years to come up with a replacement and its abundantly clear that Republicans lack organization, leadership, and a unified vision of what healthcare should look like moving forward. Obama and Dems may be responsible for the current flaws with Obamacare but I assure you they won't be held responsible for the failure of Republicans to repeal and replace it.

scuudagouch 15 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 As long as it fails and is obsolete...will take chances with the rest. If the old lady on SC would now just step away or pass away it will be fairly productive 4 years. I honestly don't like Trump but he is doing what is needed right now. In a perfect world a different conservative will replace him next election! Link to post Share on other sites

Your party has had years to come up with a replacement and its abundantly clear that Republicans lack organization, leadership, and a unified vision of what healthcare should look like moving forward. It has never been about finding a workable solution with them. It's all about the costs Obamacare put on midsized local and regional businesses, who are enormously influential with Republicans and have been squealing bloody death ever since the employer mandates were put in. To repeat, the Republican party gives precisely 0 ****s about healthcare, other than shedding it's core donor constituency of the part that make them pay for part of it.

Balloon guy 158 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Republicans are screwed over Healthcare. They have run for 8 years on repealing obamacare, then failed and have nothing to replace it. That is the difference between the dems and us. The dems are true believers in their issues. I think they are wrong about them, but they are true believe. When is the last time you saw a moderate Democrat go against party lines? Republicans in secure seats with almost guaranteed election, are still willing to go against every principle they claim to support. Until we remove the entrenched political class, the ones who are there to make themselves richer, the Republican party is on danger of diverging into 2 parties. One that cares about their country, and one that cares about power. The dems have already sold their soul, there is no reasonable size group of them that can save their party from the corrupt. Maybe we'll be a 3 party system in years to come. The dems and Republicans will split their vote between the elderly, the 3Rd party will be ones that love their country. But many Republicans on my side are asking why they should ever support the Republican party again. When Rush Limbaugh had been voicing this on his radio station. The entrenched are incredibly stupid to not make a token effort to protect the gravy train they have. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
scuudagouch 15 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 So while this is well said and pretty damn spot on the fallback position is what? Let Hillary win? Let Crying Chuck hold everything up? We had to have a correction, the last 6 months have improved things from the previous band of thieves. It certainly isn't perfect but look at the other side Sometimes a half a loaf is better then none. Link to post Share on other sites
Scrim 115 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 The thing is, this was a golden ****ing platter for them for them to not only win near term elections, but to secure an actual constituency going forward. Nuke most of HusseinHealth but bring along that addressed the dysfunctions of the Pre Obamacare era. Break up the insurance monopolies and allow free market competition. Add risk-pool funding to Medicaid for medical cost outliers. Start attacking cost at the funding level of medicare/medicaid. Straight up price fixing. If you're going to deal with the government on medical stuff, you're going to get paid on time but the government is setting the price and no longer are they a big piggy bank. Mandatory Minimum 25 year bid for any medical billing frauds. The mandates were always a hoax. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Scrim 115 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Tactical domain acquisition, while dated in the social media age, is nothing new. OJ shitted up his reputation, Trump had some nexus with him so Trump's counsel bought that domain in case Trump ever had to put out content if he were attacked on that. He also owns IHateTrumpVodka.com, DonaldTrumpSucks.com, etc. Link to post Share on other sites

Mandatory Minimum 25 year bid for any medical billing frauds. The mandates were always a hoax. Scott Adams has an interesting take, albeit a little more optimistic then me. But this view is a little more realistic to a somewhat coherent plan vs pure head in the sand stupidity. I am concerned though that , being a human who listens to a varity of news sources, I'm often times more pesimistic towards things from the media's reporting on issues, that turn out to be much better in the long run. The election was a perfect example, I was fairly confident the month leading up to the election, then became more and more disenfranchised, even though the truth was Trump was making positive strides towards his win. The democrats knew this, which is why they canceled the firewaorks a few days before the election to save money. But the entire media was 100% giving Hillary a walk. The collective 'wisdom' is oppresive and hard to oppose. How much harder it must be for those on the left who have nothing but Chelsea Clinton, Maxine Waters, and Fauxahontas to pin their hopes on in the coming 7 1/2 years.

Balloon guy 158 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 We'll see if the republicans can pull out a repeal and a promise to replace after they work on it plan. If they do, then Trump will be almost impossible to live with. I mean strong stock market, great jobs numbers, illegal immigration down, China helping with NK, manufacturing up, bringing steel back to America, all in the first 6 months. That is a lot of winning.
