Do you think Congress will pass The American Health Care Act?
One of the unfortunate things about the Affordable Care Act is that it was not affordable. I think they had some good intentions, but it was a disaster. Will Congress accept and pass the new replacement bill?
Trump teed it off on this one. He did a look here but I am over here deal. He put something forth that would have to be fought about then he endorsed that which would not be fought about.
This is so cool. The dirty rotten bastard politicians who do not give a damn about us are going to keep the good crap out of the ACA and rearrange it to make some economic sense on it's own.
The system now seems to be so inefficient that the money could come from that to fund it.
But don't look at me, I spent about 3 weeks talking to folks that I met, kind of wierd, but asking them if they had been dropped or denied healthcare. Damn I could not find a one.
Maybe ACA ain't all that bad. But I like the concept of make it better.
Parts of ObamaCare did work, and carry over to the new bill. Parts that don't work (Individual Mandate, Employer Mandate, medical device tax) are being stripped out. It will be interesting to see how the CBO scores the bill.
I have friends who finally had health care and couldn't get it before. Now they are worried it will change. One man in our group was spouting off about how bad ohbama care was and was really outraged . Then he checked with his provider, its ohbama.
I am not affected too much but I am excited about taking the best of it and applying it forward. Pre-existing and portability seem to be on the table. This is good for my America. Scream if you want to but all this reevaluation is good for us

If you were able to abolish Obamacare, what would you do to improve our current health care system?Democrats are keen to say that our system doesn’t work, that our life expectancy is short compared to other first-world countries, our health care is expensive, people with pre-existing conditions...

Why is the American Medical Association currently against the American Health Care Act of 2017?Broad assumptions about changes to Obamacare are circulating. However, I suspect that the AMA's real concern over changes to Medicaid, is that it will force doctors to accept patients with that form of...

Andrew, thats the problem with Obama's plan...it's not free.We would still pay for insurance. It's not a universal plan like in Europe.17 million Americans still won't have medical coverage with Obama's plan.If Obama wanted to make it universal and raise our taxes to get it, I'm all for...

Do you believe that the American Health Care system is better or worse than other countries?

I have been listening to how the government has a billion dollars for getting people to sign up for the Affordable Healthcare Act. Would that money have been better spent training more doctors and building new hospitals? New Jersey has closed how many community hospitals in the last few...
