YES then in 2020 they MIGHT have come down 10% WOW what a savings then of course NOTHING done to the deductibles who in the HELL would pay $1200.00 a month EVERY MONTH for NO CARE because the DAMNED DEDUCTIBLES are $7000.00 a year!!! Then at the end of 12 months the deductibles start ALL OVER again!!! Utterly ridiculous unless you have cancer or something serious NO ONE could afford this!!! Even if you have had a heart surgery or something of that sort where you need the care throughout the year $7000.00 a year on top of the $14,000.00 in premiums every year, that is $21,000.00 a year who in the HELL can afford that??? Someone making $50,000.00 a year is not eligible for help and that is HALF their income!!!

Insurance premium hikes will start hitting people next month. The Freedom Caucus killed the repeal and left town for spring break.

The insurance premium hikes were going to hit people anyway, right?

In 1993 the dems controlled the house, senate and WH. When they failed to pass the healthcare reform they promised they lost the house and senate in 1994. Clinton still got reelected though.

There was the other uncomfortable fact that the Democrats were mired in a Congressional post office scandal that would eventually see sitting House Speaker Tom Foley swept out of office, and House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dan Rostenkowski charged with multiple counts of money laundering by the U.S. Capitol Police. On top of that, the Clinton administration spent 1993-94 ramming through a very unpopular tax package that included increases in income and capital gains taxes, along with a hike in the Federal gasoline tax.

You can stop with the fake hysterics here.

“Freedom Caucus & Ryan are 2 biggest losers.”

It’s possible that they fell into a trap.

Trump has now effectively shielded himself from the Obamacare implosion.

Everybody else can be blamed in one way or another. The dems for creating the monster and the GOP congress for failing to repeal it.

The implosion is coming. Many will suffer and changing the subject to tax reform won’t make this go away.

NONSENSE! I’m sick of hearing this crap. The bill WAS Obamacare! Those guys simply did what they promised the American people. We wanted that monstrosity REPEALED, NOT REPLACED!

Might be nice, but... Repeal without replace moves the goal posts and would make Trump and most of the rest of the GOP liars.

Why would you come here on FreeRepublic and peddle all kinds of crap about a crummy GOPe bill that was concocted and pushed by two @ssholes on the "Establishment Machine" side of the graphic below?

P.S. -- I pulled this image right off your own profile page.

“In the next few months insurers will announce their premium hikes for the coming year; chances are, given the continuing withdrawal of major companies from the marketplaces and the ongoing failure of the bill to attract enough young and healthy participants, the new rates will not be pretty. Last year premiums went up 25%; it’s likely the increases will be higher this year.”

RINOcare did NOTHING to address the causes of premium hikes.

Right? That’s okay all the seats across the country and in DC the GOP won over the last 6/7 years promising the repeal of Obamacare were just words to get into power. Does this surprise you?
How many times are we gonna get ()_)(@# by the pretend outsiders? This is just abuse.
I’m not voting anymore. Seriously. I’m done with the establishment. DJT is the last hope to do serious change and he got right on board with Ryancare.
Notice how the left always delivers on their crazy unpopular policies? They have a hardcore group of supporters yet they push legislation that most Americans hate. Obamacare was NEVER popular. Hence the reason the dems were slowing decimated in their state and in DC over the last several years. Yet here we are...still stuck with it.

And now you’ll get single payer when Trump makes a deal with the Dems. Good job. Just remember he came to you first and you rejected him.

Really tired of this nonsense. Trump’s been in office 60 some odd days! First 60 days, and his presidency is RUINED?? What a bunch of leftist, propaganda crap! And Trump’s NOT the problem, ANYWAY! The problem is the Rino congresspeople, Senate AND House, who ran their campaigns, promising to pass CONSERVATIVE legislation, then turned DUE left, as soon as they were seated! Maybe we need to force them to take lie detector tests, before we vote for them. Some of the NeverTrumpers were open about not supporting him, but at least we knew how THEY were going to vote. Every last one of them KNOWS what the conservative base wants, but most of them, despite their promises, have NO intention of voting their constituencies! They’d rather lose the midterms, than have the swamp drained. After all, even if they lose, that gives them two years to vote for special interests, and collect money and influence, thereby. The ones who lied to us, (which, except for the handful that are willing to vote conservatively, and the NeverTrumpers) will pass NOTHING, before they’ll pass conservative legislation. Contrast that with the democrats, who, no matter if they are in the minority or majority, pretty much, with few exceptions, vote as a block, and back each other up, no matter how ridiculous or corrupt. That’s why they’ve passed an enormous amount of legislation, most of it harmful, over the years, while republicans have done little, except stab conservatives, in their base, as well as their fellows in the legislature, in the back, repeatedly, and can’t seem to agree on ANYTHING, and most of whom are hell-bent in their refusal to vote their constituencies. We DO a new party, if we can’t get those IDIOTS to vote the way they were elected to vote! No, we did NOT send you ARROGANT jerks to congress to vote how you see fit! We sent you to vote how WE see fit!

The key question to ask in conflict situation is: “Is this the hill you are willing to die on?”

Obamacare and Ryancare? Yes. If we let socialized medicine get established, the United States will never recover.

Border enforcement and Amnesty? Yes. Same reason.

There are a whole lot of other issues I feel strongly about, but Amnesty and Obamacare are the two with no room for compromise. If either of those issues leads to a civil war, I will be worried and disappointed, but I will not be cheering for the establishment.

Rush explained the bill pretty well today. I’m glad this turd went down and is tied around the neck of Ryan...
“The subsidies, not all of them, but a vast majority of the subsidies in Obamacare were removed in the 2015 bill. They were put back in the bill that was voted down last Friday. And the Medicaid expansion in the 2015 bill, it was removed. And in this bill, it was added back in. And what we got as a result of that was a continuation of Obamacare. The 2015 bill effectively removed much of Obamacare. The House leadership put that stuff back in.”
