Trumpcare Dead!

[etking]

Obamacare has some very negative side effects for younger people (who better pay the penalty instead of buying an insurance, so they are forced to pay and get nothing in return) and small businesses (who cannot afford to grow and employ people because they cannot afford to pay for Obamacare), I recommend to watch the Sanders vs. Cruz debate to understand the problem. You cannot really compare it to health insurances of other western counties. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTVjCc-o6vw

Trumpcare never had a chance, it was too close to Obamacare for many establishment republicans to support it. But it could have fixed some major problems and introduce competition to the Obamacare monopoly game. Obamacare is not able to survive in it's current form and especially the Democrats should have an interest to prevent it from total collapse. What is a mandatory health insurance worth if you cannot pay the bills and are better off with paying the penalty for nothing in return - what a stupid system?

In my opinion Democrats and Republicans need to come together to find a solution that is best for the American people. Trumpcare would fit much more to Democratic ideals and together with moderate republicans they would have a majority in both houses. But for strategic reasons this will never happen. So for now people have to stick with Obamacare, the worst, most ineffective and most expensive health insurance of the world, where millions of people are uninsured but have to pay for nothing and where insurance companies can play monopoly and increase prices every year.
