Utah’s Chaffetz claimed the crowd members were paid off with no proof, but he received more aid from industry, than his constituents, just like the rest of the GOP senate in Utah.
The Republicans have an easy out on this. Go for single payer. That’s what the Democrats wanted in the first place, so they will get enough Democratic votes to pass it. Obamacare started out pretty good, but by the time it made it through congress it was sufficiently messed up, deliberately or through a lack of forethought, that it was simply the best deal the Democrats could get. And, it was the result of efforts toward health care that began with the New Deal in the depression. So, Obama took what he could get. It’s not good, but it’s better than nothing and forces the Republicans to have to do something about the issue. So, if they go for Single Payer, it will be the best thing for the voters, who will credit the Republicans, and the Democrats will get what they wanted in the first place, except of course, that they would prefer that they had gotten credit for it.
