New GOP Health Care Bill Worse Than All The Others. Will Destroy All Health Care. [View all]

Just sending money to the states will throw all health care into chaos. Insurance companies will have to extremely raise rates even for people NOT on the ACA. Their premiums will go stratospheric. Sick people will flood the ER's and rural hospitals and clinics will end up closing.

This new bill ia an atomic bomb to the whole health care system. It is like torpedoing the Titanic and shooting all the survivors.
