Sad to say that I expected no more from the GOP attempts to replace Obamacare. Healthcare insurance before Obamacare was repairable. Since, it's now irreparable. What we need now is a new vision with an incremental plan to attain it. Sadly, no one in the District of Calamity is prepared to provide the vision or the plan. It would be far better for the federal government to rescind the ACA in its entirety and mandate each state to find their own solution. The feds could provide some overall guidance, a set of standards for the state plans, and then let the states become laboratories to devise and test different plans. People could vote with their feet if they saw one state with a plan superior to theirs. Ultimately, the failing plans would implode (much like Obamacare) and hopefully, all states would gravitate to something successful. I see no other path to fix this mess.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - That's why I felt it necessary to clarify. I didn't intend for you to believe that I support each state funding or imposing a state mandated system. I only look for states to monitor and minimally regulate healthcare provided by private enterprise.

CPT Jack Durish - Yes, I agree with that but really doubt that states can effectively regulate and monitor. Heck, our Governor is an ex healthcare insurance executive, guess who FL leans toward? While we may be unique my cynicism says that insurance lobbyists will just move their focus from fed to state governments.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - Under my theory, Floridians might be inclined to migrate to "healthier" climes, someplace where God's Waiting Room would include some decent care

CPT Jack Durish - Lots of decent care in Florida, just have to be able to afford it. Which has brought us full circle.

Do you seriously still think this is all about race? Way to interject race into an issue that is purely economic for most people.

My opinion is that The Affordable Care act is like an unstable anti-personnel mine. I think it was intentionally designed to destroy private healthcare, making way for nationalized single payer government-controlled healthcare.
None the less we now have some of America standing on that land mine. And everybody is standing around winding their ass and scratching their watch, trying to figure out how to disarm the damn thing. Unfortunately, it is unstable and will eventually detonate whether the people standing on the release plate move or not. And guess what, it is easier to get a junkie off heroine than to get a taxpayer off a subsidy.
As an aside, this is what happens when you have one political party run rough shod over another. The people who are against a bill should not be locked out on the wrong side of the doors while one party has a "group think orgy" and engages in no critical analysis of what they are trying to do.
The Obama administration under the Aegis of the USDA actually ran a program which had a stated purpose of eradicating "Rural Pride", the cultural resistance among rural people to accepting government assistance. In my opinion less out of concern for rural voters and more out of a desire to create a larger dependency class that will vote Democrat.
I am one of the rural voters that will probably be adversely affected. But it isn't any skin off my nose, I don't expect the American Taxpayer to carry my freight, never did. Me and mine will be fine without the government's subsidies. Keep em.

PV2 Larry Sellnow - Do you find insults make people more receptive to finding common ground and forward movement, assuming that is your end game. Or are you just here for a shin kicking contest? This kind of bile doesn't help anyone except people who want us (Americans) in-fighting. Putin and Xi Jinping come to mind.
