I’m astounded that many here think the Freedom Caucus was asking for too much.

Illegals to not get benefits? Good Lord!

Being able to offer insurance across state lines? Treason!

And the Idea that corrections for the BETTER were going to be made down the line are hysterical!

I’m still very glad I voted for Trump and he won and I like many things he has done.

But he’s not a conservative. He’s a common sense (on most issues) populist.

I’m not a “purist”. This bill was a POS and many here are thrilled to have a slightly lesser (POS).

The example of stating “what if the progressives had wanted single payer or nothing” doesn’t hold water.

They got the vast majority of what they wanted in that bill.

Ryan’s bill wasn’t conservative in ANY way, shape or form.

Trump threw in with Ryan, and right now I’m not feeling that good about Trump.

And I believe a lot of others will feel the same way and it will be reflected in polls.

I am ####ed for another year with my healthcare. And I was ####ed with Ryan/TrumpCare

He’s a moderate. It is what it is.

Buying insurance across state lines is not going to lower the premiums one penny. Very stupid argument. Insurance Companies price health insurance based on the price of medical services where you live. So yes insurance might be cheaper in Oklahoma than Texas but if I live in Texas and go to a company in Oklahoma for my coverage they will price based on my home zip code. So I will be buying my insurance across state lines but the risk is the same so there will be no change in premium. Total non issue. Sounds great but it will have no impact on price at all.
