What should an acceptable healthcare bill passed bty congress look like?
1) should have no law that compels people to buy insurance
2) public option should only serve as a trigger
3) remove interstate insurance barrier
In addition:
PROHIBIT all companies from offering insurance as a "benefit". No "sweetheart" deals with insurance companies and HMOs. NO GROUP INSURANCE. NO HMOs. The "third partying" of insurance is what has created the monster we now deal with.
Prohibit hospitals, doctors and dentists from charging differently for the same service, based on whether a patient has insurance or not.
Companies could pay their employees more, and everyone would be on an equal footing. And you will see a reduction in costs and improvements in service without the kickbacks companies get.

As the GOP told us many, many times that hundreds, if not thousands of counties in America will have no insurers providing coverage in 2018. Well, so long as they, and Trump, keep saying Obamacare will fail, it probably WILL become a self-fulling prophecy as insurers get despondent and leave...
