The Republican health care plan:
-
Step one: Repeal Obamacare
-
Step two: Repeal Medicare
-
Step three: Repeal Medicaid
-
Step four: Outlaw abortion, punishable by death

Step five: Everybody except the extremely wealthy dies in agony, and civilization (at least in the US) also dies at the same time. Although that is NOT the wish of either moderate Democrats NOR moderate Republicans, just the more extreme on the Republican side, at the very least!!

It was the same with the 2009 Stimulus bill. Republicans raged against it repeatedly. Continuous obstruction. “Big government socialist spending”, they said.
Then the checks started showing up. Then Republicans held numerous photo ops-with giant checks to show constituents “the money they brought home to the district.”

Tooner bait and switch….Bait with Obamacare and switch to Medicaid!!!………….Medicaid is a Federal mandated welfare cost passed to the States and they offer some money to pay for their mandated cost….good.

"Florida Gov. Rick Scott . . . a tea-party Republican and outspoken critic of the law . . . former hospital executive won his gubernatorial race in 2010 by campaigning against Obamacare, and as governor he fought the law in court. Even when the Supreme Court ruled against his position last year, he vowed defiance.
’We’re not going to implement Obamacare in Florida,’ he said then. ’We’re not going to expand Medicaid.‘
The about-face by Scott, the seventh Republican governor to accept Obama’s expansion of government-funded health care for the poor, is a crucial validation of the president’s signature initiative . . .
More will follow.

The current debt is $16.5 trillion. Underfunded programs of Social Security, Medicare etc are in the red by about $123 trillion. Obamacare will be part of the reason this government fails.

According to the Congressional Budget Office, the lowest cost Obamacare insurance will be $20,000 a year. The CBO also estimates that about 30 million people will not have insurance, the same number as before, all at the cost of $2.7 trillion, some 3 times the original estimate.
