Outside of the bambam administration, you and 10 other people actually still believe that. Ignored in the calculation are the hundreds of billions being dumped on the states in medicaid costs. If it is such a great plan why are there 1,400 exemptions to unions as well as restaurants in pelosi's district to name a few? The obamcare plan is modeled after Mass which is coming in way over budget. Imagine the cost when you throw 300+ million people into the mix
Republicans promised to "repeal and replace" Obamacare with their own plan. But they have not offered a replacement...they have only offered a repeal - can't replace until it is repealed and it won't get out of the senate who hasn't bothered to pass a budget for 2 years.
which means we go right back to the same unfunded program they signed into law under Bush - what program is that?
speaking of unfunded, the US unfunded liability under bambam went up $6,000 billion last year
...the one that costs as much as Obama's plan but with no funding and coverage for 30 million fewer people. - obamcare care is supposed to provide hundreds of thousands of uninsured coverage but only 18,000 have signed up to date - why
And out resident LVA conservatives are cheering them on all the way in the name of fiscal responsibility. Isn't it hilarious? - I think it is sad that the democrats cannot approve a budget for 2 years and allow the goct to run deficits of $1,500 billion per year
Like I said. You complain the current program is not funded 100% so you support the effort to revert back to the program that is FUNDED at exactly 0%. Thats been your position for 2 years now. When anyone on your side of the aisle can intelligently ariticulate a national healthcare system that that has better quality with better funding you might have a leg to stand on in this debate. Until then you just have alot of sour grapes.
