[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they should produce “something better” before they repeal what we’ve got. I agree that Obamacare is far from perfect, but I think any program this large, produced by a government bureaucracy, will inherently have problems. Meanwhile, do you remember what healthcare was like before Obamacare? If you had Healthcare at all (and many had no way to get it), you could still be refused coverage for pre-existing conditions or if you exceeded your lifetime maximum. I’m all for something better, but Trump has been promising that since his first campaign and has yet to reveal it. Meanwhile, something is better than nothing, so simply repealing what we’ve got would be something worse.[/quote] Polls show that they were happier with their insurance and its cost pre Obamacare than they are now.[/quote] Citation? Yes the cost of plans has gone up like the cost of everything has gone up since 2010, but ask anyone who has been able to leave a job and start a business while still being able to have health insurance and they would prefer the current system.[/quote] DP. While I think Obamacare was a small net improvement, it was really just a squeezing of the tube of toothpaste. That is we traded some problems with the system for other problems. For people that gained access to health care, it was an improvement, while for everyone else things have gotten a little worse. The obvious way forward is some form of universal care, but that's never going to happen so long as money controls our politics. [/quote] I think we need universal care — and platinum plans and concierge services for people who can and want to pay for them. [/quote]
