Many of the leading hospital doctors are coming together to go against the GOP new health care bill. As of last week the top GOP leaders have come out with there new health care plan to repeal and replace Obamacare. This new bill would cut funding for Medicaid expansion that many Americans rely on. It would also give a tax cuts to the rich and hurt the lower income by providing them less assistance with their coverage. Obama care is currently providing health care to 20 million Americas, and this new Trump care plan could cut up to 14 million people insurance coverage.

1. Do you feel we should fix Obamacare or replace it? why?
2. Should health care be run by private businesses or by the Government?
My Opinion
1. I feel we need to fix Obamacare because because before Obamacare we had nothing in place to help the lower income. Obamacare does a lot more then help lower income family's, It provides care for people with preexisting conditions, and it make it mandatory to have health care which is better for every American. It would be much better to fix what we have instead of just starting over.
2. I feel healthcare should bee run by the government because private business just want to make money. We should not be making money on peoples health and well being. we should care for every american rich or poor.

Well done Andrew!
Replace it. it is screwing many families over. it should be private not run by the government.
Do you have any reason on how its screwing families. From what I have heard it has help many low income families as before this they could not afford any insurance and had no insurance, over 20 million people rely on this health care and the GOP want to take it away from them.
I think that we should fix parts of Obamacare such as the part were the higher income people have to completely pay for lower income people. The Government is on strike two I guess with Trumps healthcare so we'll see what happens.
Higher income people were not completely paying for all of it but yes they were paying for some of it. I agree that the government is in a total disagreement on healthcare and what to do with it.
Bump
I think that the government should replace ObamaCare, because the premiums have skyrocketed so much that people cant even afford it on top of their other expenses. I believe that private healthcare providers should provide healthcare to whoever wants to be under their plan. Personally, I dont care what the government does, as long as it's not for the benefit of other countries. But even if the government, which the majority of it is Republican came up with the best health care plan ever, the democrats wouldn't vote for it, simply because Donald Trump is our president. That to me, is insanity, and they should stop their whining and do what they were elected to do.
Democrats are not simply just voting against this bill because donald trump is president, they are doing it becasue they care about the american people who rely on this plan. Obama care did a lot more then provide heathcare for the low income. It covered people with preexisting conditions, It made it mandatory to have heathcare because when people dont have heathcare and they get hurt we have to pay for it.
