>>The ACA was doomed before it passed.
>>You just can't do things on that scale without a single vote from the other side.
Shame- shame to be the only first world nation that can't manage a healthcare system that abandons nobody and doesn't cost the earth.
>>The repub tax bill will be manna from heaven for the dems, if they handle it as well as the repubs handled the ACA.
Actually there's some quite good people predicting that the new corporate tax rate has the potential to usher in a sustained business and employment boom. If it happens the naysayers may as well retire, as Trump and the GOP will be elected again.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
