It's amusing to think that the supporters of repealing Obamacare don't realize that if that happens with no viable replacement and it's delayed for several years, it's going to totally disrupt the entire insurance market in unpredictable ways. Disruption usually means higher costs to consumers, which is going to piss off a LOT of Trump voters.

>>. Nobody bitched about that, but now they bitch when the field gets leveled a bit

Anyone who thinks the playing field was leveled in any way by the law is delusional. The playing field was totally torn up by it, with young people paying for everyone else's health insurance or welfare benefits. With taxpayer costs totally out of control, and effectively sticking another 25 million people on the public dole while dumping the cost onto future generations.

A couple of the policy provisions are good ideas but very poorly implemented. But the law has proved to be a far worse disaster than anticipated.
