Trouble Is Even Presently Insured Not On ACA Will Be SCREWED ROYALLY. [View all]

Employers will opt for cheaper insurance without the coverages if repeal passes. Why would they cover all those services when they would no longer have to. This bill screwed everyone everywhere in the nation. In essence there will be no affordable health care insurance for I believe 75% of the country once the GOP is done.

Then you have Medicare and the VA that the GOP will be after to put on the "free market".
