GOPe. The enemy of small-government conservatism. You’re going to have to crush them, Mr. President.
Watching the GOP in action is nothing short of awesome.
“Moderate” as in constantly cave to the ‘Rats moderate?
Let me explain the core issue as I detect it. The Tuesday group wants you to pay a huge premium in case any body signs up with a pre existing condition and a million dollar future expenditure. They don’t give a crap because they have special government insurance that you can’t buy. They must think that a fire insurance company should insure someone who’s house burned down last week.
Preexisting condition patients should go to a high risk pool that they pay for— Not me!
This is about premium level. If these republicrats can’t cut our premiums in half — just keep the damned obamacare. When it fails just go to the ER. And cut the crap on all these subsidies ( credits).Health insurance it not a constitutional right except in Russia!!
When a Democrat votes for a Democrat they know exactly what they’re getting.
When a Republican votes for a Republican they have no clue what they are getting.
And this is what’s wrong with the Republican party.
Hilarious. Got to love the Freedom Caucasians.
So will the Cult of Personality show up here on FR to tear into the Tuesday Group the way they tore into conservatives last week?
My guess is.....no.
And will Trump tweet: “If Tuesday Group doesn’t get on board, everyone will suffer. We must fight them, and dems, in 2018!!”
My guess is.....no.
GOOD, for whatever reason. Don’t RUSH it this time. Don’t HIDE it this time.
Make the case to the public, WHATEVER the case is. THEN and only THEN bring it back up for a vote.
This way, it doesn’t have to be a perfect bill, just acceptable. It’s all we can hope for. Perfection is unattainable in this world.
Will we see the same kind of excoriation of the Tuesday Group on Free Republic that we saw of the Freeedom Caucus?
no mandates, state or federal
Don’t stick some white-wearing thief’s greedy hand into my bank account or that of any insurance company I might choose to buy from.
I’ve always been an “at-will” employee.
I want and demand legal equality.
Governments need to get out of the way of companies trying to offer me affordable coverage.
We don’t need Rhine River style robber barons each empowered by “mandate” law to grab my premium money and yours.
(Matrix Reloaded scene of duplicate Smiths fighting Neo) - MORE!
Get rid of the employer mandate by Easter.
Let people work 40 hours a week instead of 28.
I’m sure lots of involuntary part-timers would like more money.
“That proposal would have allowed states to apply for waivers to forgo ObamaCare regulations that mandate”
Do these RINOs not understand the word ‘repeal’?
No state should have to beg to free its people from the shackles of Democratic slavery.
What new health “deal”? Ryancare was simply obamacare with a twist, what President Hillary was given by the insurance companies because she, Ryan, the insurance companies and 99.99999999% of everyone else thought Hillary was going to be President.
The enemedia and RINO NeverTrump articles about this so-called “failure” are all delusional, and the best part is that they actually believe their own delusions.
I heard President Trump himself say a few weeks ago that his administration wouldnt be addressing obamacare repeal and replace until late 2017 to early 2018 (basically when obamacare would be facing complete collapse), so I cant wait to watch these fools freak the F out when his administration introduces a REAL repeal and replace bill 9 months from now.
As far as President Trump is concerned, I surely hope RyanCare was nothing but a red herring intended to take Paul Ryan out of all future equations about everything.
RyanCare was a real abortion of a bill, written by the insurance companies who were the only ones who were going to benefit from its passage. The insurance companies clearly had this bill already in hand, and I feel certain had cut a deal with Paul Ryan BEFORE the election, fully expecting (exactly like the rest of the entire world) that HILLARY CLINTON would be President, but believing that some Pub House votes would be needed to get the bill through the House.
RyanCare was actually SUPPOSED to have been HillaryCare, which was why the original RyanCare bill preserved 99.9% of obamacare, and it was supposed to have been Hillary’s gift to the insurance companies, while simultaneously shafting Trumps voters, who are the people who would have suffered the worst under HillaryCare/RyanCare, with even higher premiums than we pay now, all the while with President Hillary proclaiming to the public that she had “fixed” obamacare.
Ryan went ahead with HillaryCare anyway, thinking he could bulldoze the House into screwing their own constituencies even worse than happened with obamacare. If this had passed, Ryan also knew that it would totally sink Trump’s ship before four years were out, which was another major goal of Ryan’s, namely, to try to destroy President Trump before 2020.
The Freedom Caucus saved Trump’s bacon whether he knows it or not.
Obamacare was designed to implode right when Hillary was elected so she could be the hero by ‘fixing’ it.
Her first “fix” was the bill that the insurance companies’ had already written, and this bill was supposed to be her gift to the insurance companies, as well as screwing Trump’s voters who were the group that would have had the biggest premium increases with her “fix”.
That too was designed to eventually fail as well, with single-payer being her ultimate “fix”, with her throwing up her hands and saying, “Well, folks, we tried EVERYTHING possible and nothing worked, so looks like single-payer is all that’s left”.
But that all exploded when President Trump was elected. Paul Ryan tried to introduce the HillaryCare/InsuranceCompanyCare bill anyway, since he had already cut a deal with Hillary and the insurance companies, but that exploded too.
If President Trump was smart, he’d just drop the whole obamacare thing for 9-10 months, and bring back real repeal/replace after obamacare had totally failed, at which point he’d have a mandate for doing practically anything he wanted to do.
