DEFUNDING OBAMACARE: WHY NOT

SPECIAL POST

I've always believed that if you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.  Here we are, more than three years down the road since ObamaCare was passed, and still trying to get it repealed.  Let's suppose we were to be successful; what are we going to replace it with?  

We all know that our healthcare costs were skyrocketing before ObamaCare came along; ObamaCare just made that problem worse.  So, what solution does the Republican Party propose to fix that problem?  Well, I haven't heard of any proposed solution, either.  And that's my rub.  

While it's easy to sit on the sidelines and criticize, leadership comes through providing workable solutions.  Defunding ObamaCare simply gives impetus to their argument that the Republicans are obstructionists and don't have any answers.  Taking it one step further,if they don't have any answers, who needs them in office? They are only setting themselves up to win a battle and lose the war.  

ObamaCare is so rife with the possibilities of abuse and corruption that it should be trashed.  It is the single worst piece of legislation ever passed by this government in the entire history of the nation.  Yet, as the other side is now vocalizing quite well, "You may not like it, but it's the law.  Get used to it." 

The real answer to the dilemma is to come forth with a viable alternative and set things in motion to take solid control of the Senate in 2014 and then to come with new legislation to repeal it AND replace it. 

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
