No we're not left with that question at all. The Dem's still control the Senate and have veto power in the White House. It's not being repealed.

We have to understand that states are challenging this bill. I think by overwhelming majority of the voters and pressure on the new powers that be...this bill will die or be drastically changed.

The Dems don't believe in freedom of choice or power of the individual, so not going to happen.

The system is fine as it is for most part and Dems have made an issue where there really is not one, I have insurance and am happy.I feel for those who do not BUT we should not uproot our system, violate the constitution, drive costs up for policy holders in order to meet the Left's "social justice" agenda.

I believe a good plan would be for a reasonable fee every 3 or even 6 months, citizens who meet certain requirements(case by case basis, based on fianances, situation etc) could qualify for medicaid.Talking mid income people who can not afford health insurance currently nor do they qualify for medicaid currently, they could pay the fee and have some coverage until they can afford private insurance.Now this would be sort of a liability only type insurance, such as car insurance where if you get sick, you can see a doctor or when things such as cancer happens.Wouldn't include a lot of the perks regular insurance is but it would help many things and provide some coverage.

Tort reform(ironic coming from a law student I know but lawsuits are a big cause of high costs)

Incentives to companies to lower costs that will be revoked if costs do not come down.

lower taxes on medical equipment not raise them as obamacare does.

Leave in the FEW good parts of obamacare...

Can not deny for pre existing conditions

Can not be dropped if you get ill

Can stay on parents insurance until 26
