If you allow insurance companies to rule out pre-existing conditions (which only individual policies can do now), then you take all seniors off Medicare and put them into private plans as the GOP plan does, those private plans will be able to exclude coverage for most seniors’ health problems. The longer you live, the more pre-existing conditions you have. The result will be the exact kind of rampant poverty and homelessness among seniors that Medicare was enacted to solve. The plus side is that a lot of rich people will be a whole lot richer.
And what pre-existing condition would that be, Chip Blockhead? The fact that the healthcare law gets rid of pre-existing conditions? Or that it banishes life time payouts? Or is it the fact that it forces corporations with 50 or more employees to offer insurance to its employees? Maybe he don’t like that the idea that it expands medicare and it would mean (for some) that they would be covered under medicare.
Or could this simply be another shot at the Obama administration?

That’s not Obamacare, that’s your insurance company sticking it to ya, just like they have been for years.
