Repealing Obamacare will raise prescription prices for seniors

Bush's Medicare part D created a nasty "donut hole" where when you reached it you start to pay full price for medications.
Those meds can be prohibitively expensive.

The ACA is closing that gap and reducing drug costs for those on Medicare with full elimination soon.

This is almost never discussed but needs to be.
