Repeal. Only.

_____________

You can’t repeal only because Obamacare gutted the industry. The plans that used to be there are gone. The whole thing has to be rebuilt, which is why a replace HAS to be there.

And by blocking this bill, Obamacare will stay in place, implode, the economy will tank, and Trump won’t get any of his agenda done. So what’s the point?

Yes, but voting for the bill also preserves Obamacare.

Then I guess Trump and those advising him during the campaign pushing a full repeal were wrong?

So please explain for us how the GOP presented Obama with full repeals?

Agreed. However... Trump ran on a platform of making deals -- "we're gonna make the best deals," etc. And he followed through on this so far -- made deal with automakers, military contractors, the manufacturer of AF1, etc. He's shown that a phone call is sufficient to get these people moving.

WHY, then, can't he call the healthcare providers and say, "We're going to get rid of Obamacare. We want to put your businesses back into the free market. Put together some consumer health plans that can be available and ready to roll in two months, and then we can get your industry moving again."

Why not deals with the healthcare providers??

REPEAL ONLY!

The free market will take over and sooner than later, we'll be on our way to the best, least expensive, and most available healthcare in the world, like we used to have beofre the feds began mucking it up in the 70's.

The free market is absolutely the best place for all healthcare for both economic reasons, and legal reasons. The legal reason is the feds are not constitutionally allowed to meddle in healthcare.

Economic and legal benefits notwithstanding, the greatest obstacle to Repeal Only is political. The weak, hand-wringing, corrupt politicians on the Right are our greatest obstacle to restoration of our Free Constitutional Republic.

How will the replacement rebuild the industry? Repeal it and I think you would be amazed at how fact the insurance industry can come up with solutions. Leave government controls in place and you continue their slow decline.
