This new bill is very harmful down the line in so many ways.

It is MUCH worse than the ACA.

While certainly the ACA can be improved, all that Heritage and
conservative groups want to is destroy it with a plan that
favors only insurance companies and the rich.

If we all did we could act accordingly, have them arrested or at least voted out which any decent person would do.

But I am betting the vast majority of CHRISTIANS support this premeditated murder.

because they are too much like subsidies and pay out money to lower income people who may not owe much, if any taxes.

They would like total repeal without any replacement so only those who have high incomes can afford health care- they think that would be incentive for people to work harder. (even though the selfish cruel nuts want to abolish minimum wage too)
