    I'm not sure it would bring back rational pricing.

    I'm also not sure what this is supposed to mean;

        Sure would be nice if the Republicans wouldn't lie to Constituents.

          Sh-t like this is gonna happen a lot. The GOP either needs to stop having town halls or screen its "random citizens" better.

          In a remarkable exchange, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) was asked during CNN’s Thursday town hall to explain to a cancer patient who said the Affordable Care Act saved his life how congressional Republicans could move forward with repeal of the law without a replacement plan ready.

          Jeff Jeans, a lifelong Republican who said he worked on the Reagan and George W. Bush campaigns, said he opposed the ACA until he received a surprise cancer diagnosis at 49. He was given six weeks to live.

          “Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, I'm standing here today alive,” he said. “Being both a small business person and someone with pre-existing conditions, I rely on the Affordable Care Act to be able to purchase my own insurance. Why would you repeal the Affordable Care Act without a replacement?”
          ACA is an arrow: more damage being pulled out than going in.

            He also bombed on questions about Planned Parenthood and DOCA. I'm still confused why people voted to have ACA, Planned Parenthood, DOCA, Social Security, and Medicare/Medicaid destroyed but apparently some of our citizens and non-citizens still have questions about it.

                Maybe I got it wrong. It's the Dreamers Executive Order that Obama signed. The lady asked Ryan if she is supposed to be deported on the 20th.

                  This is my favorite quote from Trump:

                  In the interview, Mr. Trump provided no details about how his plan would work or what it would cost. He spoke in the same generalities that he used to describe his health care goals during the campaign — that it would be “great health care” that left people “beautifully covered.”

                          The reason it sticks so strongly with Pelosi is that she was so excited when saying it. The glee in her voice, and pumping of her arms to cheer on her compatriots, it had to be an unequivocal success through all phases or you're stuck in meme land infamy.

                            Paul Ryan finally has a plan to replace Obamacare....with Obamacare. Only instead of only poor people getting subsidies, everyone will. That should reign in the costs!

                              They have no plan. 7 years and nothing. I weep for this country and it's inability to solve problems.

                                Minnesota passed a 313 million dollar rebate plan for those in the individual market of the Affordable Care Act. Those of us on "employee" plans get nothing despite our massive increases the last three years.

                                This is how Republicans solve problems.
