Donald Trump was elected partially on his promise to repeal Obamacare — but he may not have to do much.
Trump has already suggested that he has no intention of dismantling the law in its entirety. Despite the public’s overall dissatisfaction with the Affordable Care Act, certain popular elements remain. In particular, the provisions that allow children to stay on their parents’ insurance until they are 26 and the preexisting conditions clause are still viewed favorably by the public. The individual mandate and state-run health co-ops, however, have remained unpopular ever since their implementation.
Trump has proposed an end to these state-run co-ops, suggesting that an inter-state system of private competition could help lower costs across the board.
Implementing these changes without a filibuster-proof senate may be difficult, but the state-run co-ops look to be disappearing all by themselves.
Witness the scale of the state-run co-op collapse on the next page:
Before Obama care there wasn’t$#%&!@*half of Americans had no health care now u complain but republicans have no replacement wtf u want people to just die wtf
My son can’t get it because he can’t afford the insurance for he , his wife and son. What do you want them to do die?
It was a huge failure from the start!
I want the clause that it’s mandatory taken out as well as the fines and sanctions associated with it. I also want my premiums and deductibles lowered to what they were prior to the law. I pay dearly for something I can NEVER use. I will just go to ER and then not pay the bill as I had to do last year. I don’t give two shits what the paid off justices said, this is NOT constitutional.
What’s really sad is people claiming Trump voters don’t know that ACA and Obamacare are the same thing. Always with the insults. Very sad.
O’care was on the verge of implosion by the time MR. TRUMP was elected!
In Pennsylvania to assure high risk drivers had access to affordable car insurance they were placed in a high risk pool with rates reasonably above industry standards. Insurance companies if they wished to sell auto insurance in PA had to take share of this pool based on market share.
Obama designed it so the out of sight charges would not start until he was out of office. Everyone should have know this.
There going to repeal that POS insurance that bomma put out. Hahahaha
Oh yes they do
No one is that stupid.
