(23,297 posts)We don't know that the ACA is going to go away for sure. Since we don't know why pull the rug out from under ourselves now? Why hold the knife for Ryan and McConnell so that they can more easily slit our throats. No. No. NO!
Senator Warren is now beginning to talk about single payer. Let's take that and run with it. Senator McCaskill is talking about a public option or at least allowing people to purchase the same plans as members of Congress. There are Dems who are moving forward. Senator Collins stated publicly that she is open to repairs on the ACA. Let's vocally support these people. We've got our foot in the door, let's seize this opportunity.
If we let the ACA slip away, people will die. It is that simple. Their blood will not be on my hands. Tell me WHEN were be better off going backwards?
Never.
