You greatly disappoint me, Rand Paul, when you don't know the need or severity of your own constituents, and you lie about what will happen if we remove partial or all of Obamacare. You continue to spew myths surrounding it,
and you haven't the heart to think of what's at stake. I'll never vote Libertarian a day of my life.
Dear Friend,
It's been a busy week on Capitol Hill, as we have tried to fix the problems caused by our broken healthcare system. This week, I voted multiple times to repeal Obamacare, including offering my own clean repeal bill. Unfortunately, in the early hours of Friday morning, the Senate fell one vote short, which is disappointing.
Later that morning, I shared my thoughts in an op-ed for Rare:
The clean repeal, which I supported, wasn’t perfect, but it would have forced all parties to legislatively resolve the wreckage of Obamacare.
The clean repeal, as every permutation of repeal, could not repeal the fundamental regulatory flaw of Obamacare by a simple majority vote because of arcane budget rules. And, in the end, we couldn’t convince GOP senators to fulfill their promise to voters to repeal Obamacare.
So, what will happen?
Again, premiums will continue to skyrocket. Insurers will continue to exit. The death spiral of Obamacare will continue.
Democrats will accelerate calls for an insurance bailout, and compliant, big government Republicans will join with Democrats to foist upon America more federal intervention into what should be a very private and personal matter. Sad.
Libertarian enthusiasts and optimists will hope that technology and disruptive Uber-like forces will surmount the grip of pols who lack sufficient confidence in what made America great: freedom, freedom of choice unfettered and unchained.
We can on
