Will you be covered when they do the big switch from Obamacare to Trumpcare through their new Trump agenda on downsizing medicare and causing many to fear the worse?
Where do you see your healthcare being like in the next 12 months, much less, the next 4 years or perhaps the rest of your entire life?
Give me your 2 cents

No, and I hate Trump! I realize the situation is more complex than that..but pass something that works for all Americans not something that is fast that Trump can crow about..Idiot! I watched Paul Ryan on shows Sunday AM, the basis for this program they want to pass is all theoretical..The Republicans better not pass..this bill which is worse than Obamacare ever was!

I don't think anyone will see any difference because I don't think they're going to be able to pass Trumpcare. The Repugs can't come to an agreement and the Democrats sure aren't going to help Agent Orange our, or at least they BETTER not!
Who know though, I'm not longer talking or thinking about years or even months from now since there's an unstable idiot in the White House and he's threatening another unstable idiot in North Korea and they're both threatening each other almost casually with nuclear weapons. Does anyone really believe there will even BE a 4 years from now?

Truth is, there is never a plan that I can afford. Never has been. I am 51 years old and I have never had heath insurance. When I was sick a couple times I went to the hospital and asked for help and they gave it to me. I paid the doctors in payments.
I still have to pay cash but ya know what? I thank God I am not a sickly person. And sometimes , this is just my opinion, Doctors give pills to people and that make them sicker, then they need a pill for another illness. I take minimal meds and I have a good doctor that knows my goal is to be med free.
What do I think about the insurance deal? Nothing because I know I will not be able to afford it and I cant get any free. I am just screwed in that department.

To sum it up as quickly and simply as possible, the Republicans hated President Obama, which was why they immediately the ACA he signed into law "Obamacare" because the negative publicity had made it very unpopular for a time. Donald Trump promised to repeal and replace it and in fact the GOP lead Congress had voted to repeal it - with no replacement - nearly 60 times through the years. Trump ran is usual big mouth and promised that he had a plan to replace "Obamacare", with a better plan that would be much cheaper and that everyone would be covered. He promised those with preexisting conditions would still be covered. As it turns out, the plan the Republicans came up with would cause over 24 million to lose the coverage and it would cost much more for others and those with preexisting conditions would not be protected. BUT the richest Americans would get a huge tax cut.

@lookatdesktop Thanks, I tried to make it clear. Remember Donald said a few weeks ago that "nobody knew health care is complicated"? WTF??? Who didn't know it's complicated?

I'm retired and at my age won't be affected. But my daughter will likely lose her coverage. I don't think it will pass though.

I know many of them in the White house are feeling great pain from this new plan.
