    I vote yes. I hear they're gonna attach something to get rid of the 10 essential benefits (or no penalty for policies not having them) so people can buy catastrophic, skinny, whatever benefits they want policies. Don't know how they can work that into a budgetary/financial reconciliation bill. But the goal is to bring prices down.

    passes the house imo

    when it gets predictably filibustered in the senate, they'll blame democrats for not allowing congress to fix healthcare, instead of admitting mistakes, doubling down on obamacare and hurting everyday americans, etc etc

    Saw the Freedom caucus guys (Meadows & someone else) on the nightly news a little while ago. Judging from what they told Hannity, it's going to pass.

    It's going to be a reconciliation bill. That's why there is no selling across state lines in this bill, so that it isn't subject to filibuster. If three or more GOP senators don't defect this garbage is going to become law.

    I love the fact that Sean Hannity is your nightly "news".

    You're talking to the person who said Trump and Bannon are really democrats.

    Freedom Kockus saying horrible TrashCare not HORRIBLE enough

    As always with Repugs, Trashcare is a lie.

    Trashcare nothing to do with providing health care (OBVIOUSLY), but enriching the rich

    Trumpcare gives top one percent a $31 billion taxcut

    http://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/trum...e+Raw+Story%29

    ... maybe the Freedom Kockus s are just running a shakedown, wanting to be paid for doing this nasty trick, since their wealthy johns will benefit by $100Ms.

    Blake Farenthold was interviewed on NPR this morning basically saying he was going to support it even though he doesn't like it, because his re-election counts on it.

    lol a 44 seat majority and can't pass a bill they've been campaigning on for 7+ years. What a ing clown show.

    My guess is they somehow ram it through the house, probably by catering to the "Freedm" caucus (seriously, wtf kind of name is that?) by removing the essential benefits provision. From there it will either die in the Senate or the parliamentarian will rule it can't go through reconciliation as-is.

    That POS was voting for it anyway, no?

    Here's a list of republicans who oppose it as of right now.

    goddamn you're stupid

    cost is nowhere in Trumpcare

    the goal is a tax cut for the rich, with later destruction of Medicare and Medicaid to finance even bigger tax cuts for the rich

    goddamn you're stupid

    It has to get three no votes from GOP senators to die in the senate. Which three are voting against the repeal?
