Memo to GOP: Repeal Obamacare

PPPS (Washington, DC)—Given the difficulties and necessary political maneuverings involved in obtaining the votes to pass a GOP plan to partially replace tiny portions of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), we thought we would remind the Republicans why repeal of Obamacare is a much more preferable option to start with.

1) For the past seven years, YOU SAID YOU WOULD

Obamacare. In fact, based upon that promise, We the People, first gave you a majority in the House, then the Senate, and finally the Presidency. Think about that for a minute, between fund raising calls.

2) Obamacare was so complex and full of government control mechanisms that it never could have worked to lower health insurance premiums or make health care affordable for more Americans. WE told you that, and YOU confirmed it when you produced this chart to help people understand how complex Obamacare was.

Just curious, which of those circles and diamonds and connecting lines were you actually planning to eliminate or replace under the GOP House and Senate plans? Perhaps you could produce a new diagram to help voters understand.

3) Obamacare was never intended to create "affordable" health care. Its purposes were much more sinister, which is why President Obama and the other Democrats had to lie and cheat in order to get it passed. 

The increase in insurance premiums, the collapse of the health care exchanges, the withdrawal of insurance providers, the massive increase in Medicaid enrollment were all part of the plan to enslave the American people. We told you that. We thought you understood. But instead, after reading your "replacement plans", it appears the GOP has chosen to become the new slave masters. Abolitionists, you are not. 

You were appointed to do one task. No one said it would be easy. Now, you must finish the job. Cast Obamacare into the fires of Mt. Doom and free the American people. 

Then we can work on a free market replacement.
