    Democrats, Obama WH went to such great lengths to keep Obamacare: 1) Under a $1T pricetag 2) Deficit neutral Have talked to those people in recent months, who regret/question whether those restraints were necessary.

        If Ds were willing to pass a more expensive bill that increased a deficit, they could have fixed the biggest problem: too small premium subsidies.

        Ahem, deficit reducing. And, btw, expanded coverage and bent the cost curve for non-scorable benefits.

        Even if this was true, which it’s not, the cost of Obamacare is beside the point. The law was an egregious violation of individual rights and interference in the economy.

        So you’re actually bragging about gov’t stealing from private citizens and businesses? Because that’s what single payer means.

        The police and military can stay, but all those other items are not the job of gov’t.

        If this thing passes, Democrats have a green light to basically pass Medicare for all and ignore the price tag.

        The libs will NEVER pass it. They don't believe in it. They have no problems voting for another 80 billion for the military, while lying all the time that healthcare & education is a "pony". The only way anything good will ever happen is if there's a socialist party in charge.

        Let's not be like Trump supporters and justify bad legislation or actions by other bad legislation or actions in the other party. Lets weigh each piece of legislation, each decision, each proposal on its merits. That said, yes, we should implement a universal healthcare system.

        I'm sorry, but we have to hold our political "leaders" accountable. If you believe we should implement UH, you need to demand it from liberal politicians and refuse to give in for the half loaf!

        Well, they weren't, and at least now the Dems have a green light to go full boar next time with Medicare for all and just ignore the costs of it all. Nobody gives a shit.

        Medicare for everyone, crushing taxes on yachts, real estate holdings worth over $10 million, and golden toilets to pay for it. The RNC wants class warfare? I say we give it to 'em.
