Why this renewed assault? “Obamacare Sucks!!!” declared the former and possibly future president. For those offended by the language, these are Trump’s own words, and I think I owe it to my readers to report what he actually said, not sanitize it. Trump also promised to provide “MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE” without offering any specifics.
So let’s discuss substance here. Does Obamacare, in fact, suck? And can we believe Trump’s promise to offer something much better?
I think it’s a lot like FDR when he wanted universal healthcare.
Moderate Dems and Republicans united despite Dems holding the majority, and forced Social Security to just be for the elderly and those with seriously debilitating health issues.
With the promise to FDR that it would be expanded later into universal healthcare.
Literally the same thing that happened with Obamacare.
Lots of people dont like waiting 3 generations to see that kind of incremental improvement though. Especially when there’s no logical reason not to just give it to everyone
