It includes cuts and defunding to medicare, so include whatever amount of people had insurance before ACA under medicare, then will lose it under AHCA.

I have my doubts. Their electorate follows the "Conservatism cannot fail, only be failed" mantra, have really bad political memory, and have suffered under GOP directed cuts already but still blame Dems.

People who go from insured to uninsured are going to be very pissed. That's 24 million votes for whoever says they're gonna unfuck this poo poo and politically destroy those who did it.

This is a goddamn electoral gift basket. They're handing us the next cycle if they pass this poo poo.

It cuts taxes for the rich and I'm guessing it makes health insurance companies more profitable so I'm still expecting it to pass.

Since this was a question earlier, here's the baselines of pre-obamacare, Obamacare alone, and trumpcare.

https://twitter.com/stuartathompson/status/841398469822672898

And the white house AGREES with the CBO on premiums going down. The problem is, the premiums go down because old people would stop buying health insurance, as their costs would skyrocket too high for them to buy it. With the old people out, everyone else pays less.
