A criminally inaccurate headline about Trumpcare on THE FRONT PAGE OF THE NYT

11. The Mandate was extremely important. But some young and healthy, who are smart

will say, jeeez I can get a $2000 tax credit if I buy health insurance (and assuming the youngster's state doesn't apply for a waiver to gut the 10 essential benefits), which is priced at $150/month and gives me free primary care visits and preventive care, reduces my exposure to high charges by doctors, and provides a limit on out-of-pocket costs. Some will buy it if they still end up paying a relatively small amount not replaced by tax credits. That's why I think a small subset of younger/healthy people will do better, at least financially and in the short-run, under the GOPer plan.

In any event, I think the Senate will improve it to some degree. And some blue states will not destroy whatever is left by applying for waivers. I think the fight moves to the States in that respect.

And No, I don't trust these GOPer bastards, but at least until we figure out a way to get majorities in Congress or elect a Prez, we can only hope for the best outcome under the GOPer regime.
