Compromising health care

When Obamacare was pushed through Congress eight years ago, the majority of Americans did not want it. Yet the media, working with Democrats, did everything they could to sell it. That plan was full of holes and famously included the lie that you could keep your plan and your doctor.

Now, after that failed policy has collapsed, which is on purpose, Republicans are working hard to fix it. So what do the media do? They express wild outrage and disseminate false and misleading reports in an effort to help Democrats.

The Obamacare failure will take multiple pieces of legislation to fix, and everybody will be covered.

At the end of the day, a good standard is that if nobody likes the compromise, it’s good legislation.
