    I don't see this as bad in any form whatsoever.

    He wants to end the mandate to enroll, but keep the provision that says you can't be denied for a pre-existing condition. Now, what do you see as a negative outcome? (Question requires critical thinking which trump lacks)
    He hasn't done anything to healthcare at all but when he does he has stated that he will keep the provisions that he likes from Obamacare that many other Americans found appealing.
    If you have time read this https://assets.donaldjtrump.com/HCReformPaper.pdf
    I figured you'd miss out on the question.
    What's w/ the slight?

    To your question,
    The negative outcome I can possibly see is that the people who currently have pre-existing conditions still won't even bother to apply for insurance even though it won't be a barrier.
    They'll enroll in a plan after they get sick. I think this was the "free stuff" I kept hearing about in the primaries.
    Imagine, people asking others for help when they are sick and not being turned away.
    Wow, this trump thing is starting to sound good. So people will now happily pay the skyrocketing premiums?
    Stop scaring people.
    Why do you think this will happen? (think critically)
    I just pointed that out. Example: sorry dave, you have cancer. Dave enrolls in insurance the next day. Dave's $100k chemo is covered. Thanks trump!
    So what happens to Dave today applying for insurance w/ cancer? - in your country
    He should've already been enrolled. In trumpword, why would anyone be enrolled? We would all be like dave.
    Should've? - who is going to enforce that?
    President-elect Trump is saying that anyone will be able to enroll.
    Up until Dave got cancer why did he need to pay insurance premiums?
    There's a penalty if you're not enrolled currently.

    They are claiming they are going to replace it with HSAs. How that is a replacement of healthcare is anyone's guess.

    Medicare is going to be privatized.

    These are not good things.

    President-elect Trump is offering no penalty.

    Ummm..that's what I'm saying. None of us will need to be enrolled, and then we enroll when we're sick. That means a lot of money going out, and not much coming in.

    It's hard to decipher what you mean sometimes.
    Do you really think a penalty is necessary for not being enrolled?
    Do you really think that all of a sudden every American will all of sudden drop their insurance with President-elect Trumps plan in place?
    He is not saying to only enroll when you are sick - he is saying that pre-existing conditions that have previously denied applications will no longer be the case.

    Why 53 per cent of America’s white females voted for Donald Trump, even if they were offended by him

    http://news.nationalpost.com/news/world/why-53-per-cent-of-americas-white-females-voted-for-donald-trump-even-if-they-were-offended-by-him

    yup just white males voted him...

    and i will not take the approach by calling people uneducated, I'll leave that for the elitists....

    53% of the ones who actually voted out of the 49% of all registered american humans, all genders, that voted. not 53% of america's white females. that's a massively misleading headline.
    Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall

    Unless you have ongoing health issues, there's no reason to be enrolled in trumpworld insurance. It would be like if it wasn't required to have car insurance, but after a crash, you could enroll and have your pre-existing crash covered. No one would have car insurance in that situation. You could just spend $250 to cover the $4k body work.

    Agreed, I wouldn't pay out of my paycheck monthly for something I may need, but could sign up for when I did. Just plan your yearly check up and ride it out. Need a prescription refilled, sign back up

    Unless you're terminally sick or pregnant, most people wouldn't be enrolled, especially middle class and low income families. Where's the insurance company going to make up all that lost revenue? There'd be a huge loss of jobs.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Health and car insurance are two different ballgames.
    President-elect Trumps plan will require price transparency from all healthcare providers, especially doctors and healthcare organizations like clinics and hospitals. Individuals should be able to shop to find the best prices for procedures, exams or any other medical-related procedure. He proposes to allow individuals to fully deduct health insurance premium payments from their tax returns under the current tax system.
    He also proposes to modify the existing law that inhibits the sale of health insurance across state lines. As long as the plan purchased complies with state requirements, any vendor ought to be able to offer insurance in any state. By allowing full competition in this market, insurance costs will go down and consumer satisfaction will go up.

    There is mo evidence to support that. It is just a logical extension of Reaganomic principles that have objectively failed.
    The premium deduction, in combination with his other tax cuts would ensure that tax revenues would fall to incredible lows, which will be a problem for a leader who wants to increase spending in other areas.

    If you focus on building a healthy society and giving people the tools to keep them healthy they will be more active in the workforce generating more income tax revenue.
