Another step in starving ObamaCare. Passage of the repeal in the Senate though would be uncertain with the usual three suspects plus the absence of McShame.

Why is health care so expensive? The government. I’ll call this exhibit 2.3.3.1.

🔬💉⚗. 🤔 So, anyone think that big MED hasn't been adding the costs to your bills anyway? And probably more than they needed to?

I remember this being the part that hurt veterinarians, too.
To: buckalfa
hooray for the house, but these things are better done as part of a bill not standalone. It may not even get to the Senate floor.
Stick it in a bill that you know the Senate wants to pass.
That’s how things get done in Congress.

Has the so called Cadillac tax been removed? Its a big issue because the evil bastards didnt index it so eventually it will hit almost everyone.
To: Truthoverpower
Quite a few Ds come from states (like ours) which make medical devices.

What about ACA’s 3.8% surtax on investment income? When is that going to be removed?

Supporters of the tax said a repeal will deprive the government of about $20 billion over the next decade, according to The Wall Street Journal. Right, because it's the Government's money and not yours!

You can bet on the Dem’s in Trump states getting behind this repeal... if they have any hope for re-election.

How did that tax last so long? It punishes those who manufacture medical devices in the US.
