REPUBLICANS NEED TO OPPOSE THIS UNLESS THERE IS AN ATTACHMENT WIHT FULL R E P E A L! !!!

[Ezekiel]

The vote on Upton’s bill is set for Friday, which, per CNN’s source on the Hill, means the White House has 48 hours or so to come up with its own proposal for letting people keep their plans — adverse selection problem or not — before Democrats head for the lifeboats.

Countdown to Friday mayhem ping.

In 1952 one of my classmates’ mother had her leg amputated for cancer, and the bill came to an astounding $400.

[eyedigress]

That is a months pay or better. I hope she lived well.

[Graybeard58]

I don’t know what’s in the bill but I know at this point that is not possible.

Congress has to pass it first.....then find out what's in it. Have you forgotten that already?

[DManA]

Also, it’s not a law until the executive bureaucrats write the regulations. They are the real (unelected) legislature.

Her husband was the youngest captain on the Oakland PD.

She was an absolute fox! (I was almost 8 years old)

[Baynative]

Just the fact that there is a discussion about this bill shows that there was not the need democrats said when it came to creating this law tax in the first place.

[eyedigress]

I had a serious crush on my 2nd grade teacher. I promised to never release the videos.

The Rats are hoping they can unspill the spilt milk. Ain’t gonna happen. For one thing they got only 6 weeks before millions find themselves without health insurance. Ain’t enough time to fix ANYTHING before then. And besides those polices are kaput, and no amount of legislation can make them come back any more than legislation can undo the damage wrought by a Cat 5 tornado.

[funfan]

The plans don’t exist anymore so how can they get them back?

Just another lie to trick the people.

[funfan]

You are too generous I wish for their untimely demise.

[sickoflibs]

This is called the (Obamacare) death spiral.
Dems are in a panic.

Obama is probably counting on this dying in House.

[Teacher317]

So... we’ve been paying for this fiasco for 3 years now, to help it get on its feet... if it is repealed, where did the money go?

[eyedigress]

That is the point. People need to understand law.

These policies are illegal. Obama just stepped into a pile of law that even he can’t clean off. Even if he dumped it himself.

[editor-surveyor]

>> “ I promised to never release the videos.” <<

I-Phone?

[JimSEA]

Obama will have to veto it. It would speed the collapse of Obamacare. The folks whose plans were cancelled have to pay exorbitant new premiums.

[riri]

No one seems to be asking this question.

[editor-surveyor]

>> “where did the money go?” <<

.
To the sterling individuals that funded Obummah’s election.

[plain talk]

because it would make canceled plans available to all consumers, not just the ones who’d been enrolled in those plans before. That would be a disaster for the insurance industry.

I can see why the WH would attack it from a political standpoint. But even if it goes forward I can see how they end up winning in the long run. WH and dems will pass legislation restricting rates and basically make it so insurance companies fold. If enough damage ensues to insurance companies that paves the way for the dems to come to the rescue with single payer which is what they want anyway. They want insurance companies to fail.

Haven't said that I think the political reality in short term though is they prefer to have their "plan" preserved so they are not seen as backtracking. Now that they control this industry they can always find a way to screw insurance companies later and move to single payer. either way they win. The RINOs cant do much except pass this bill (with dem support) which does help some people now. The little people are grateful for any crumbs the RINOs can throw them.
