GOP Natural Born Liars. If Obamacare Were Repealed Nothing Would Replace It

GOPPERS say they support the more popular parts of the Affordable Care Act. It is a lie. They won't pass anything if it were gone. What they don't tell voters is that they also favor ending tax subsidies for employers to cover employees to be replaced by nearly worthless tax credits to buy insurance.

They want insurance companies to be able to drop coverage to anyone who gets seriously ill, even if the insured is up to date on premiums, and still make them pay premiums but still deny coverage. They want to deny coverage to those with pre-existing conditions. The list goes on and on.

In short, repukes want to give insurance companies an absolute license to commit racketeering, fraud, and a laundry list of crimes that, if the perpetrators were working-class and/or of a despised ethnic minority, would send them to prison for decades, if not life.
