You do realize that currently only about 10 million people are signed up and using obamacare right now don't you? Originally Posted by goodolboy

You don't realize that with the ACA, besides the subsidies for the private insurance plans sold on the government exchanges, a family of 4 that makes less than $24,000 is eligible for "Expanded Medicaid". Thirty one states participate in this. The Federal Government picks up 90% of the cost, the participating state 10%. There are about 11 million people on that. So add the 11 million to the 10 million and you get 21 million losing their health insurance right away. From the link:

The latest analysis, from the nonpartisan Brookings Institution, finds that Cassidy-Graham would reduce the number of Americans with insurance by about 21 million through 2026. But after that, another 11 million would lose coverage, for a total of 32 million additional uninsured.

These fuckers don't realize that this means THEM!

DEE OH FUCKING AYYYY!

Hopefully they will try to work together now that they have to.

Agreed.

I hope you are wrong but you are probably right. Certainly Obamacare has its problems. Are they fixable? I don't know but I would hope that a bipartisan committee could be put together to work as one to try to fix the problems. Trumpcare would have been a huge disaster in my opinion.

Time for the President to move on and focus on other issues -- tax reform and the budget for starters. North Korea. Not the NFL

That's extreme wishful thinking. The issues you list are things that concern the American people, nut just Twitler's delicate sensibilities.
