    His own words, he's walked back about half his platform and he hasn't even been inaugurated yet.

    But he's honest and going to do what's right for the average American.

    Wants to get rid of Obama Care...

    Except for the mandate not allowing insurance companies to deny based on existing conditions.

    LOL

    Only works if 1) Govt subsidies to insurance companies 2) mandate that healthy be required to buy insurance with penalties for non compliance or 3) both

    You know...

    Obama Care.

    I'm still a proponent of a single payer system and a private system. You can opt into a basic level government policy funded by tax dollars, or opt out and get a more comprehensive policy in the open market which would be fully tax deductible.

    So I suppose you'd be happier with Joe the plumber?

    That's pretty much how the NHS of the UK works.

    It's off topic, but providing at least minimal care to all citizens should be done, but also keeping the individuals right to purchase their own care. Since they are opting out of a system they are paying for through taxes, they should have the costs of their private plan deducted from their taxable income.

    People forget that Trump didn't make campaign promises, he stated opening positions in negotiations. That's what business people do

    I'm surprised some of you are surprised.

    So Obama lied. But Trump is starting negotiations. Got it.

    I'm interested to know how this would work.

    The private companies would go broke.

    You know, and I know ... hell even @collegdoog knows, that the average American is so fucking stupid that if given the option of "free" health care or paying for it (even with full tax deductions) ... there is no choice.

    Obamacare was designed to fail, which would force a single payer system.

    So far the failure is well on track.

    You can keep your doctor, but only if you like him.
