As much as I dislike the Republican leadership, they are right. If they do this, forget the 90 days and get it done right. But, if it turns out wrong, 2018 will turn out badly.

The average cost of healthcare is between 2,300-5,200 a year then you will have a co-pay

He makes valid points that are even listed in the below lined DHHS document from OCT 2016 but he has also skipped over the things that has been working out very well in many of the states that has benefitted. Would have more respect if he shared both details, not one sided.

MAJ James Woods - I'm not going to argue the old saw about the chicken or the egg with you but if you can't see that you can transpose the words Dem and GOP throughout the discussion you are missing something. Liberals are supposed to be accepting of other ideas. So, shouldn't the party of Liberals reach out to make a better healthcare bill rather than counting coup?

MSgt James Mullis - Actually, as an Independent, I tend to weigh both parties in their hypocrisy so when I see comments that blame one side while ignoring similar behavior by the other, I'll call it out. More to point, the "Liberals are supposed to be accepting of other ideas" doesn't mean they should always be first to compromise and not put up much of a fight; thus, look weak. That is why more of their constituents are demanding more of a backbone from them. Since I enjoy transposing words, I will also say Conservatives are resistant to change and compromise because of ego and fear of looking weak. I prefer both sides be party in name but moderate in ideology willing to listen and debate without nonsense; Country before Party.

MAJ James Woods - I'd just like them to talk to each other and work out the best possible healthcare law they can. But that's not gonna happening because its the Party that matters and who gets the credit, not whats best for the People.

MSgt James Mullis - Thus the corruption and contamination of our political system when there's no limits nor transparency on political donations.
