Re: Warren Buffet Says Scrap Obamacare Start over
Actually no. When it came out the dems, because they are bought and sold by the healthcare induistry, decided they kept needing more votes than a majority to pass the law. It was probably to avoid a filibuster, but the reality was they needed more than they had for the level they wanted to pass it. In the beginning it was universal single payer healthcare. it was altered to be Romneycare. All that was done for and by republicans in an attempt to be bipartisan and stop what would have resulted in the end of the health insurance industry and the beginning of federal healthcare. This goes to why dems actually started losing faith in Obama. He is clearly a republican and his policies and BS have caused him to go very right and break most of his promises. There is no choice as getting mad at Obama for being a great republican leader is probably not a reason to vote for the republicans.
But i am actually good with what the republicans did. I agree with the idea that this has the potential to cripple and destroy for profit healthcare. I am perfectly fine with making things so damned bad that something has to be done.
You might want to rethink that. No Republicans voted for it but Democrats passed it. Democrats could have done anything they wanted.
