They’ve had seven years to put together a bill and this is the best they could come up with?! How long is this “work in progress” going to take? And in what way is further negotiation expected to improve it?

No, Tom, it is not “the beginning of the process.” It’s year 7 of the process and the Republican plan - such as it is - still sucks.

“I think that this is the beginning of the process, and we look forward to working with them and others to make certain that again we come up with that process that aligns with the principles that we’ve defined…

And what would those “principles” be, exactly? Because all I’m seeing is a plan that makes things worse for just about everyone. Was that one of the principles you were aiming at?

“And that is that we need a system that’s affordable for folks, a system that’s accessible for individuals, that’s of the highest quality, that incentivizes innovation, and that empowers patients…"

Um, so how did you end up with this plan, that does nothing for any of these?

Later, asked if he could guarantee that health care premiums would not go up as a result of the proposal, Price said “we believe strongly” that premiums would decrease if the proposal was enacted.

I believe strongly in unicorns. We’re each equally like to see our belief reflected in reality.

A work in progress - finally someone in the GOP told the truth. They’ve been making 0 progress on this work for almost a fucking decade now.

:joy:

@maximus - “TrumpDon’tCare” is awesome. If they pass something, I think it should be called that for all time.

“This has been a work in progress,” he said. “As you know, this has been going on for over a year…"

“And with just a little more time and effort, I’m sure we can fuck over the non-billionaire citizenry much more bigly”

There is a highway extension that Italy has been building from Naples down to the coast for 50 years. It is still not finished and what has been built has in many areas totally collapsed. It’s undrivable.

Works in progress.
