The minute the new admin can offer a detailed medical plan proposal that is truly arguably better for patients and doctors and nurses, I’m in for the thorough read and study of it. Until then….

Really, the situation is the GOP simply lacks the balls to say aloud what they really want to say: “Healthcare is for closers only.” If they thought they could get away with it, they’d strip the rules requiring ERs to provide care, which would save their buddies in the healthcare industry heaps of money by being able to deny care to the poor. Any rule or program that provides healthcare to the poor and needy would be gone in a hot minute under a GOP that didn’t have to worry about political consequences. Why? Because their political dogma says if you can’t afford something, then you should go without it until you can. Can’t afford dialysis? Or a new heart? Or just blood pressure medication? So sorry, please go die somewhere else.
