I hear every Republican candidate and current office holder decrying the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) as “something that can’t be fixed” and advocating doing away with the entire program.
I have yet to hear even one Republican put forth any option for covering all those they will cavalierly throw to the wolves. Until I see some concrete plan presented by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell or any other Republican, I will continue to believe Republicans have no plans for anything but destruction.
Show me concrete plans to benefit the real people of this country, not just a few of the very rich, and perhaps I will consider a Republican candidate. And until I see Republican officeholders voluntarily giving up their government-funded lifetime health care benefits and pensions, I can’t take seriously their cries about the evils of government-run programs.
