GOP alternatives to ObamaCare
- Thread starter JuliefromOhio
- Start date
some journalists are starting to ask republicans, with all their complaining, what's their alternative. response? the look of the deer in the headlights.
I believe you've just described resident_evil's grand plan. LOL
They don't have an agenda.. only getting their hate on when it comes to Obama..
they put all their eggs in the repeal ObamaCare basket, are refusing to work on and pass legislation that would help them as a party......like tax reform, immigration reform, and they will be SOL when the good news on ObamaCare spreads.
Matt Laer asked that idiot Palin that recently...She had nothing but her usual brain dead response..."ObamaCare must be repealed"

You watch though. To the extent any GOP has anything to offer by way of any alternative, ALL they have is "health savings accounts".
Although......last week, trapdoor suggested something I haven't heard yet - at least from any GOP of note. Trapdoor said the better alternative was to turn everything back to how it was prior to Obamacare. It'll be interesting to see if any GOP of note chooses to run with that one.

Stand up for the people!
Wasted time @ taxpayers' expense on a law already passed.. of course.. would have been wiser for repubs to gotten on board with ACA and shared the goodwill of a great health ins. plan -- ACA-- instead of protecting the interest of the ins. companies.. as dictated by all of the ins. companies' lobbying.
I was just checking the various network's evening news. the alphabets were talking about yesterday's storm and the fight among the Cheney family member's differing views on same sex marriage, ferkristsake.
now PBS News Hour had on a journalist who covers the ACA and a Colorado family of 5 who lived without health coverage and how they are so relieved that they now will have insurance with a decent subsidy, thanks to Pres Obama.

As someone top-posted in another thread, the GOP's problem is that Obamacare is a GOP idea, no matter how desperately their saps might wish to deny it.
SO...what the GOP might've been able to do - had it been willing - was politick for all sorts of traditionally conservative ways of fixing or improving upon Obamacare. Alas....they can't do that, since Obamacare is bad-bad-bad, in toto.
Of course Fox is 24/7 anti ObamaCare propaganda...At an Hysterical pitch...Actually kind of humourous

I saw a graph the other day, that broke the American population down into something like 5 or 6 age cohorts, from younger to older. It covered the age range that would be subject to Obamacare so....no children and no Medicare-ites.
The graph showed something interesting. It seems the younger people are, the less likely they are to have done their due diligence by now. And....the older they are, the MORE likely they are! Who woulda thought that!!
the younger will rush to buy in at the last minute......in March, 2014. they will be indulged by the market with cheaper catastrophic plans for the under 30s only.
that was the idea of the repub establishment pick for senator in Nevada who lost out to Sharron Angle who lost to Harry Reid. puck pawk.
