Despite what your pathologically lying buffoon says, he owns health care now. That he does nothing, is on his shoulders, not Obama's.
But then again, other than constant lying, that's what Drumpf does best, nothing.
Take it away from 32 million and republicans sign their own death warrant...
You can not "unring" the bell grasshopper...
If there are only 7 million in the program how can it be 32 million ?
What we have now is Obamacare, and people know who created that disaster. The Dems own Obamacare lock, stock and barrel.
32 million lose care, thnx trump & gop
GOP's Obamacare Repeal Cut Insured by 32 Million, CBO SaysA Republican fallback plan to repeal all of Obamacare without a replacement health program would lead to 32 million more people uninsured than under current law, the Congressional Budget Office said Wednesday.That’s about 10 million more uninsured than the estimated 22 million people who wouldn’t be covered under a previous Senate Republican bill to replace many parts of Obamacare. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said the Senate may vote on the measure as soon as next week, though support for it is uncertain.

The full-repeal proposal is called the Obamacare Repeal Reconciliation Act. It’s an updated version of a bill that Republicans passed in 2015 that was vetoed by then-president Barack Obama. The proposal would repeal Obamacare’s coverage expansion in two years, giving lawmakers time to come up with a replacement.
[h=3]Path Forward?[/h]Republicans are scrambling to come up with a way forward on their seven-year-old promise to repeal the Affordable Care Act. McConnell has so far failed to unify his caucus and bring a bill to a vote after moderates and conservatives defected over conflicting objections to the plans. On Wednesday, the White House touted a plan from Texas Senator Ted Cruz that would allow limited, cheaper insurance plans.
Cruz’s plan is part of prior measure, the Better Care Reconciliation Act, that didn’t attract enough votes to start debate after two other conservative senators defected from the effort on Monday night. On Wednesday, President Donald Trump called lawmakers to the White House to try and find a way forward with that bill or another.
The repeal-only proposal would have grave effects on the market for individual insurance where many in Obamacare currently get their plans. CBO estimated that the repeal would result in about half of the population living in areas where no insurer would offer plans in the nongroup market by 2020, a number that increases to about three-fourths of Americans by 2026.

It would also raise the costs for people to buy insurance, by about 25 percent in 2018 and more afterwards. The bill eliminates a requirement that all Americans carry insurance, which would mean that those who ended up buying health coverage would be sicker, causing insurers to charge more to make up for their costs. After 2020, “enrollment would continue to drop and premiums would continue to increase in each subsequent year,” the CBO said.
The proposal would reduce the federal deficit by $473 billion over 10 years, according to the CBO, compared to $321 billion under the Better Care Reconciliation Act. The savings in both plans come from rolling back Obamacare’s expansion of the Medicaid program for the poor and ending or limiting subsidies to help people purchase insurance.

The congresspersons voting on Obamacare repeal get their own insurance from the government. Is that not ironic?
Many more than 32 million were told if they liked their plan and doctor they could keep them and that their premiums would go down $2500.
You see how that worked out. And the leftist loons were kicked to the curb last Nov. You own Obamacare.
fuck them
we will end their money grubbing soon with national healthcare

Specifically, it doesn't, idiot. So what?
There is the General Welfare Clause that does apply, though.
Nobody said anything about insurance, idiot.
Article I, Section 8, reads, "The Congress shall have Power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States."

good pointAre you saying general welfare equals freeloading? That's what it sounds like since what you support involves one group, the contributors to society, being forced to take care of the other group, the freeloaders in society.

Yur idiots are in the majority now. They own everything. They had 7 years to come up with an alternative plan, didn't they? Trump campaigned on its immediate repeal.
Tell us, Einstein. Where are we? Your assholes can't see their asses from a hole in the ground. Let it die is the loser's way out. No surprise, however. That's what you get when you elect a clueless, pathologically lying buffoon.
