employer-provided healthcare.

Ludicrous. As if dismantling the ACA won't effect each and every person on an employer-provided plan. If you take away the essentials from the ACA, they don't need to be covered on your employer plan, either. Pre-existing condition? Not covered. Kids on your plan until they're 26? Not allowed.

And of course, the Rs believe that the only reason there's a healthcare crisis looming is because Americans are lazy freeloaders who don't want and don't seek out good-paying jobs with great benefits, as if there are millions of these jobs just waiting to be filled. Actually, the Rs believe that their economic policies are going to be so good that the above situation is going to happen.
