Expanding the existing V.A.hospital system and networking that with the nation’s low-cost clinics for the poor and homeless would be a better, more effective way to construct medical treatment infrastructure from the ground up. The ultra-rich want a finger in every pie and prefer the corporate health care system that Nixon-Obama-Romney and Pelosicrats forced on the nation saddling youth with a vast new tax to pay for treatment they don’t generally need.
Congressman Ryan’s job as Tom Clancy role model/Jack Ryan verisimilitude political action figure may be in jeopardy if the repeal bill fails. A patriotic, glistening new practical approach is needed rather than the bureaucratic b.s. complications of papercare with flummery for the rich as it is.
