The Trump Administration’s Own Data Says Obamacare Isn’t Imploding

If those CSRs don't get paid, your premiums jump substantially. Or insurers just withdraw from the market. Good luck with that.

My premiums jumped anyway, I just told you that. Now they are withdrawing. So the system is collapsing. Good.
 
It is controversial. Whenever a political party passes a bill without a single vote from the opposing party; I feel it is inherently controversial. it is no different when republicans or democrats do it. Democrats shouldn't be surprised their hyper-partisan bill they didn't want to amend at all to get any republicans on board then received no republican support when the bill needed it, and instead received republican spite.

sorry MRN, you’re simply repeating a false conservative narrative. As Greenbeard points out, republican amendments were added. That alone disproves your point. This won’t help either. There is simply nothing “hyper partisan” about President Obama and democrats compromising on the republican plan of mandates. There is something “hyper partisan” about republicans supporting mandates for 20 years then stopping only because President Obama accepted them.

democrats did what they could to make Obamacare bipartisan. But nothing would have worked because republicans told you it was their plan to obstruct President Obama. So why are we still having a conversation that “dems were hyper partisan”? do yourself a favor, take a step back from believing “it was controversial for them to pass it without one vote from the opposing party ” and question “why wasn’t it controversial not one republican voted for it.”

And if you’re feeling up to it, question why we are even having a third grade-esque “but dems were mean to little billy first” discussion to justify the current actions of the republican congress. You’re simply admitting republicans are childish and unfit to govern. Which further proves my point.
