[quote] In the wake of the defeat of the GOP overhaul of Affordable Care Act, House Speaker Paul Ryan said Friday that Obamacare was the "law of the land ... for the foreseeable future" and that health care would be set aside as Republicans work toward tax reform this fall. But in a reversal, Ryan — who called his legislation, the American Health Care Act, "fundamentally flawed" — told donors Monday that the effort to roll back the ACA is not over yet. "We are going to keep getting at this thing," he said, according to a recording obtained by The Washington Post. "We're not going to just all of a sudden abandon health care and move on to the rest. We are going to move on with rest of our agenda, keep that on track, while we work the health care problem."

Letting Paul "cut all the limbs from the apple tree and expect it to still bear fruit" Ryan is the last person you probably want spearheading your effort to repeal the ACA if you want any hope of actually doing so.
Anything to keep him from actually doing any real work for the betterment of this country and its people, so long as he gets paid to do it.

Note: He's actually scared that he will lose leadership position becasue both Trump and Most of the GOP House are angry at him.
Paul "Sisyphus" Ryan continues his unending toil of pushing the AHCA boulder uphill.
Crossing my fingers that the 2015 repeal bill Obama vetoed comes back under Ryan.
[QUOTE=Chonch;52021470]Crossing my fingers that the 2015 repeal bill Obama vetoed comes back under Ryan.[/QUOTE] What would that bill specifically do that you believe would help benefit the general welfare of the American public at large?
[QUOTE=ilikecorn;52021261]The biggest flaw in the ACA was a lack of price controls. Fix that and the ACA is perfectly fine, and would improve things significantly. Our healthcare system CAN'T CONTINUE to do what the GOP wants it to do. Our ER's are full of people who don't need to be there. Our Ambulances are constantly getting called to things that could have completely been avoided if people would just go to a doctor. People are actively dying because we can't actually get to the people who ACTUALLY need help, because instead we're helping "oh i broke my toe 3 weeks ago". We're constantly loosing qualified professionals (nurses, doctors, paramedics, EMT's) because of the constant tirade of bullshit that walks into our ER's. We're completely overworking and overstressing a system that is specifically designed to take care of the drastically sick and injured, and we're starting to pay the price for doing this.[/QUOTE] pretty sure the ACA had some strict price controls, the problem was it doesn't touch the insurance-health provider costs that has made healthcare unaffordable outside of an insurance network. The AHCA would have gutted all the ACA's price controls on insurance, as well as eliminated the taxes that keep the prices down on insurance.

[QUOTE=Chonch;52021470]Crossing my fingers that the 2015 repeal bill Obama vetoed comes back under Ryan.[/QUOTE] Won't repealing obamacare add to the deficit?
[QUOTE=Chonch;52021470]Crossing my fingers that the 2015 repeal bill Obama vetoed comes back under Ryan.[/QUOTE] Isn't that a really stupid idea?
[QUOTE=New Cidem;52021690]Isn't that a really stupid idea?[/QUOTE] No it's a great idea. If you get Ryan to spear head the bill it's bound to fail because even the GOP knows he's a fucking nut.
Paul Ryan is continuing to show his true nature as a heartless cunt with no regard for the sick or poor
In my lifetime, I want so badly to see the greed-sodden scourge known as private health insurance [B][I]wiped [/I][/B]from the United States. Edit: to clarify, having private insurance as optional, SUPPLEMENTARY insurance to a public system would be fine, like Canada has. Basically, just be Canada on healthcare and I'm golden.
