I agree you cannot repeal and replace on day one. OBamacare was not put in place on day one either.
Repeal so that it is no longer a law. THere are a few concrete steps that can be taken day one and some that will have to play out over a couple of years. People who are currently on Obamacare plans need time to find alternatives. Need to pass laws allowing competition across state lines. THey need to set up catastrophic pools to cover those with most serious illnesses to hold down cost for average consumers. Etc.
Most important is to kill the current law on books while we have momentum and majority.
Everyone keeps waving that like it's some kind of miracle solution. Leave aside the 10th Amendment implications. If an insurance company does not currently do business in my state then where is the incentive for me to buy from them and where is their incentive for them to sell to me?
They don’t need multiple years to find alternatives.

This is something the impatient hotheads here are going to have to get.
You cant just repeal this train wreck, and then say “have a nice life”.
There will have to be something for these people to move to, and that will take a minute to get setup so this can be done without causing mass chaos.
