The Mike Church Show Episode 355 Podcast: Practice Makes Permanent And So Does The GOP HealthCare Bill

May 8, 2017 2

Mandeville, LA – If you have been wondering what is in the new Republican “ObamaCare repeal and replace” read this piece by Pete Suderman. You might also wonder why “conservatives” went all Nancy Pelosi ala “we’ll have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it”, apparently, legislative imbecility is bi-partisan: “Republicans have consistently had difficulty making the case for the bill on health policy merits. It’s not even clear that most House Republican lawmakers know what’s in the legislation. “I don’t think any individual has read the whole bill,” Representative Tom Garrett of Virginia said. Why then did House Republicans push so hard to pass this health care bill? Because it cuts taxes — especially for the top 20 percent of earners — and so sets up the broader tax reform legislation Republicans hope to pass later in the year.” So, the fix is in for another round of “tax cuts” and monkeying with the 800 lb gorilla that is the tax code. What a surprise! Meanwhile The Senate says “how ’bout, Noooooo”.
