Warren Buffett: Scrap Obamacare and Start Over
The Weekly Standard ^ | 9-17-3 | JEFFREY H. ANDERSON

Posted on 09/17/2013 7:46:12 AM PDT by Paul46360

"You know things are bad for President Obama when even Warren Buffett has soured on Obamacare and says that "we need something else." Money Morning writes:.."
"Republicans should take Buffett's words as an invitation to propose a long-overdue Obamacare alternative, one that would lower costs, fix the unfairness in the tax code, deal with the specific problem of preexisting conditions, breathe life into a moribund individual insurance market, and constitute real reform. It's time to delay Obamacare and propose an alternative, then repeal Obamacare (in 2017) and pass the alternative."

.... LOL ..... that is funny. This could never happen cuz that would take something called "Teamwork" by the GOP. We all know that age old saying ... "There is no TEAM in GOP."

"...Obamacare and propose an alternative"

&#@k that. I don't want any involvement by the government in my healthcare issues. Want to reduce costs? Make people pay for their own healthcare. PERIOD!

Cash and carry healthcare. Private charity for those who can’t afford their own treatment.

I’m even against insurance because as soon as you have insurance you have political interference that converts it to welfare which then further converts it to slavery.

Posted three times in a row by different posters—wow.

Not blaming anyone, mind you, as the postings were almost simultaneous so the article wouldn’t have turned up in Search. But what are the odds of that?

Warren’s just pi$$ed off that his insurance companies are being mauled by Obamacare. It’s all about the Benjamins to Warren.

We need to go back to the system we had and incrementally tweak it. “Comprehensive” laws are stupid. Rarely is EVERYTHING about anything completely screwed up.

EXACTLY! No need to start over with anything.

Warren’s really going to be upset when Keystone is finally approved.

Buffett better be careful or the One might approve Keystone to put the screws to his RR oil hauling profits.
