it's somewhat infuriating that republicans were able to run and win on repeal and replace for 7 years when the reality is they have no plan and never did. and people fell for it. repeal and replace is basically the star citizen of legislation

It was smart, in the sense that by not providing a specific plan, they left the voters free to imagine whatever ideal alternative plan they wanted. Of course, that all fell apart the moment they stopped campaigning and had had to actually govern, but then again, so did everything else the GOP has been running on these past 8 years.

This got posted but during a derail so I'm posting it again, trump literally doesn't know what health insurance is. He thinks it's life insurance. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-health-insurance-cost_us_597042f3e4b062ea5f8f2430 “So pre-existing conditions are a tough deal. Because you are basically saying from the moment the insurance, you’re 21 years old, you start working and you’re paying $12 a year for insurance, and by the time you’re 70, you get a nice plan.”

It's a copy of the 2015 reconciliation bill to repeal the ACA. It's not a clean repeal because you can't do a clean repeal of the ACA under reconciliation rules due to presence of regulations that do not effect the deficit riddling the ACA.

That is considered to be a repeal of Obamacare within this thread, since its not going to happen. In the unlikely event we actually get there, then we'll shift over to "ok wait, now what is remaining?"

Trump knows what health insurance is. It sounds like he’s trying to express how coverage is cheaper when you’re younger, but you buy it when you’re healthy so you have it when you’re old. The GOP plan tried to force continuation of coverage through premium costs rather than a mandate so it aligns with that. He’s just doing a terrible job of explaining himself. And Trump know what health insurance is because remember he canceled his relative’s coverage for his sick child when the guy challenged a family will.

Trump has no idea what insurance is or how it works on even the most basic levels. You are kidding yourself. He just saw money going to something and cut it off, he doesn't need to know how it works or what it does at all to do that. If you asked Trump to define the word "insurance" in a live interview, what exactly do you think he would say?

Go ahead, don't be afraid, it's not a test of manhood! AstheWorldWorlds posted:People are treating it as an insult because "skills retraining" has an extremely mixed record in actual practice if even attempted at all. It's coded language signaling that they aren't planning on raising the minimum wage to a living wage for """""""""""""""""""""""unskilled""""""""""""""""""""""" jobs, and if you want to make a living wage, then you should learn skills rather than working at mcdonald's, which is for teenagers. That is 100% the reason they put that in there. It's to signal that they will gently caress over people who are below a certain level of wealth and skills.

Rigel posted:That is considered to be a repeal of Obamacare within this thread, since its not going to happen. To a normal person and in conventional parlance the current bill is one that is to repeal Obamacare. However we're talking about a quote from Rand Paul, who is not a normal person. He specifically predicated his yes vote on the ability to vote for a clean repeal. He actually does mean he wants a clean repeal because that is the essence of a Paul. Don't get me wrong he's still going to cave and vote yes for cloture, but he is currently demanding something other than the bill being discussed by every other person in America.
