Repael of Obamacare will be applauded but, the reality is ,it will also be problematic.
First we have portions of it that now exist. And Sandra Fluke will not go silently into the night without her $3000 worth of Contraceptives. I say we do a Nebraska compromise and give her a lifetime supply. Shut that gene pool down.
That accomplished we can move on to the less important issues like Preexisting conditions and 26 year olds still living in Mama's basement.
Many conservaives have advocated banning preexisting conditions on Healthcare policies. Just do that. You can't sell insurance unless you sell an equal affordable policy to all. We all pay a little more but access for cancer survivors and diabetics will improve their lives immeasuarably. This is an incredbly important issue as we go forward because as medical proceedures advance and improve survival rates, more and more of us will have "pre existing conditions.
Frankly what is the main argument for Obamacare? The occurence of a catastrophic medical event that bankrupts the average person. Often with or without medical insurance. There are policies that are desisgned just for this . They are relatively cheap and unfortunately unavailable in most states.
Imagine how much lower their costs would be if available nationwide.
Second most importantisue is routine care for the poor. I cannot say that we can provide it at a level equal to tony high end practicioners but, we can provide it in abundance in levels of care that are more than adequate, if we keep the product free (unregulated) to be competitive.
Medical Student loan programs to provide a host of practitioners and idividual medical vouchers for those who cannot earn funds for medical payments.
Instead of death panels culling the herd of people to meet capacity, let the market meet the capacity needs of the people.
Put the resources of the death panels to work judging whether a person can or cannot provide for their own care costs. and issue vouchers.
Eliminate Cobra, one of the biggest shams in the medical insurance racket.
I say student doctors, and even experienced ones who wish to address that community, be organized to practice in well equipped government capitalized "First care units" Let insurance companies send their paying patients there. And now we would be giving excellent care to both medicaid level and standard care level service on an equal basis to anyone in equaly prepared settings.
Doctors make the same incomes and the poor get the same services as anybody else there And the clinics stay in business not because of need orpolitis but because they provide competitively good care.
Bad clinics lose not only those who pay for their own service but those who don't. Much like food stamps medical vouchers would allow anyone to shop in the same stores regardles of the source of their funds.
But unlike food stamps, doctors can refuse to take them. So you go to another clinc that will.
Not a perfect system but better than just forcing all to buy private health care insurance with no provision to provide health care facilities at the level of need plus the added volume of requests for service simply because it is free and unlimited to the poor.
No time here to define things more, besides no one would want to read 2070 pages.
But these ideas make more sense than executive orders from the White House telling insurance companies that the Sandra Flukes of the world get to screw for free on their dime.
Or to corporatize to a statist system that forces everyone to perpetuate the status quo. AKA Obamacare.
