In case you have not been following the news, the Republican leadership decided to ‘pull’ their replacement bill for Obamacare at the last minute, ahead of the scheduled vote at 3:30 PM EDT.
The markets were gyrating a bit around this decision, not because there is any concern about the American people and those who would be affected by their higher premiums and loss of coverage through this ‘reform.’
No, the big concern is that tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations will be jeopardized now because the ‘savings’ that would have been projected for the government by screwing the 99% will not be available for those who the Republicans really care about— wealthy donors.
So while we may have another go at it next week, there is some indications that the Trump administration and the GOP will do whatever they can to weaken it, and hope to come back and take us a step backwards in caring for our own and fostering a more general prosperity for all, despite the rhetoric about making America ‘great again.’
Pelosi and the Democrats were quick to claim victory, but that was nonsense. The Republicans shot themselves in the foot and showed a remarkable inability to actually govern from start to finish.
