So basically, it's what everyone thought it would be---a crappier version of Obamacare with lower taxes, higher premiums, less Medicaid coverage, and a 30% coverage lapse penalty instead of an individual mandate.

After eight years of bytching about how Obamacare is the worst law in American history, Republicans are going to pass Obamacare-lite and hope their voters don't care. And of course, they won't. Because their only problem with Obamacare was Obama himself.

EDIT: Wow, this post blew up. :damn:

It's not bad. WTF is wrong with you weirdos?:what:

The mandate is gone and that's great news. To pay a 30% increase for a year and not have it be mandated by government is much better than being forced to pay what essentially is a LIFE TAX.

The fukking media has you idiots by the balls I swear.

"But if she had a lapse in coverage longer than 63 days — perhaps she couldn’t afford a new plan between jobs — and went to the individual market later, insurers could charge her a 30 percent premium surcharge. She would need to pay that higher premium for a full year before returning to the standard rate."

- This is not a tax

- Insurers could opt NOT to do it.

- The mandate is gone.

You a$$holes need to stop feigning concern about shyt.
