Anything that repeals the individual mandate and lets states cancel essential health benefits or allow discrimination on preexisting conditions is automatically horrible.

Im torn. On one end, it would allow blue states to essentially make there own single payer options. On the other hand, people in red states get effed.

Red states would get more money though. Graham-Cassidy would basically transfer money from blue states to red states.

No, they would have the opportunity for more money. As we've seen in the Medicaid Expansion states, Republican legislatures don't want free no strings federal government money if it's for health care for the poor.

It'll only speed us up to a fully universal system so I'm okay with it
Heighten the contradictions always works.

If some states had single-payer healthcare and others did not, then sick people from red states could just freeload by moving to California when they got sick instead of the status quo where they just go to the emergency room or buy insurance when they're sick and pay the paltry fine when they're healthy.

I didn't mean it at the state level. If this bill passes, it basically throws 30 million people off of health care and increases the cost of everyone else's insurance. I don't know how Republicans can expect to get away with what will so obviously have real life implications for the majority of Americans.

They'll blame it on Obama and their loyal voters will believe them.
