I assume that you are talking to Kari because I am telling of the faults of Obamacare.
In any case it is clear that you know even less than does Kari on this topic.
I am also telling you that the GOP plan is WORSE.
1. Putting all sick people in one pool is very expensive as there is no dilution of this pool of high cost people with others who are lower cost. Do you know the principle of any form of insurance? You spread risk by mixing high risk with low risk.
BEFORE Obamacare states did have these high risk pools. They FAILED!
2. There has been massive concentration of health insurers. These are already have operations across states? There will NOT be any competition. The GOP is pretending as if all 50 states have unique and separate companies. They know fully well that this isn't the case, but they know that dummies like you don't know this.
3. The GOP want to prevent employers from deducting the health insurance premiums that they pay on behalf of their employees, or to make such payments taxable to the employees. This will result in most people having to pay income tax on about $24k of additional income, this out of cash that they didn't receive in hand. Or they will have to go buy their own insurance when their employees cease to provide this.
Why do you think, when asked about what will replace Obamacare Trump's response is the "best plan ever" and refuses to disclose the features of this "best plan".
