Somehow a black president gets the drop on those uncaring white fools and suddenly something is worse than nothing!!!
It's a poor excuse for not looking after the disenfranchised and needy in this county. Suddenly it's a great emergency.
If the wingbutts had said, let's take a close look and improve what can be improved to get even MORE poor Americans covered with insurance it would have bipartisan support!
But the way of the wingbutts is by vilifying, not improving.
I hope they loose their asses. It would fly in the faces of the self righteous white asses that feel ownership and entitlement in this country.
We have become the England that you left behind so many years ago!!!

Really? You are so intellectually deficient that you had to bring race to the issue? Really?
Obamacare is done, and it was not killed by the republicans, if fell under its own weight, it was poorly conceived legislation and it took only a few years for it to become unsustainable. Personally I don't to much care so far for what the republicans are putting together but I really don't think that they care so much what I think, they will do whatever they think it takes to protect their political future.
Healthcare is not a right, it just isn't, but if our society wants to provide healthcare for all then it has to figure out a way to pay for it, and the democrat fall back position of make the rich pay is not going to work, it is inherently unfair to expect some to pay and others to get a free ride, it is the democrat dream, but most of America has never supported the dems in their efforts to raise taxes only on a specific class in this country.
Interest on debt currently is calculated at with a blended rate of 2.4 percent, debt service this year will be about $450 billion, just a few years ago it was $250, if interest rates return to their historical norms it will be over $1 trillion, larger than any federal programs other than Social Security and Medicare. So, where does this money come from smart guy? Do we just keep spending money that we don't have so that we push debt service so high that future generations will have no money for their government? All governmental revenues will be consumed by debt service? Is our generation so entitled and deserving that we can spend our children's and grandchildren's futures?
Hey, you guys want free healthcare, free college, free nutrition.... Go ahead, bring it all on, just pay for it, and don't ask others to pay for it, put your freakin wallet where your mouth is, figure out what it will take and institute a flat tax, make every income earner pay his share in this glorious paradise that you want for the people. Don't chase our businesses overseas by legislating that they pay for it, pony up and make everyone pay.
I don't know why dems don't support a federalist system, just think, if the federal government was small as envisioned by our constitution, they would not need all those federal taxes they collect, nor would they interfere with the great state of California's business, you could keep all that tax money that you send to the feds and do your own Califoricare, and a host of other programs that you liberals have such a hard on for, wouldn't that make more since than to have to be oppressed from time to time by the flyover and their president, Donald Trump?
