You read it from no-one else.For decades the Republicans did not want to interfere with the free market making profits from Americans who fall ill. A federal government plan was off the table. But by promising 20,000,000+ Americans who are enrolled in the Affordable Care Act, that they will replace it, they now are talking about a federal health plan. This is the ultimate victory of President Obama..The "Achilles' heel" for conservatives in congress is that they have NO idea on how to replace the ACA.....
No proposed system can ensure people with HC who also have a serious pre-existing condition (like women of child-bearing age?) WITHOUT also mandating that healthy, younger people also purchase insurance....THAT is the logic of the ACA, like it or not.
So, the only options for elected right wingers are: Go back to what the system was before the ACA (and watch the consequences to their sorry hides)......OR, adopt a Medicare-for-all option (which would send the clueless base into a frenzy of lynchings.)
So, which will it be?
LOL, come up with that all by yourself didya?
