Sixty attempts have been made in the last seven years to repeal Obamacare with no plan or a secret plan to replace it. President-elect Donald Trump's team is ready to repeal and replace Obamacare. It's time to see the details of the replacement. Is Trump planning to keep the positive parts of Obamacare? Specifically no pre-existing condition limitations, no lifetime caps on coverage, guaranteed issue coverage, and 100 percent coverage, no deductible for preventative medical procedures. How are you going to pay for these benefits and what is the cost? Will Medicare and Medicaid be affected?
Trump's nominee for Health and Human Services Secretary, Rep. Tom Price, is under ethics investigation for insider trading of health related companies stocks. Congressman Price is considered the architect of Trumpcare.
We anxiously await(ed) Trump's news conference Jan. 11. Maybe we will find out the status of his tax returns. How about Trump's business succession plan? U.S. President's cannot have business interests that may be a conflict of interest, benefit the president or adversely affect the U.S. Just read Trump is asking for U.S. government funding to build the wall between Mexico and U.S. and then request reimbursement from Mexico. If Mexico doesn't agree, is Trump going to sue Mexico?
