Health Care System Faces Collapse With GOP Plans.

There will be a lot of unintended consequences if the GOP plan passes. It will not only effect non ACA users health insurance. It will also effect health care providers with many layoffs. Many rural communities will lose all their health care facilities. Even vets care will suffer as veterans not on VA lose their coverage.

And if the GOP turns the VA system into a "coupon" systems most disabled vets are done. Vets in particular cannot get any kind of decent care in a private system. And the GOP has so damaged the VA it is having problems.

I do honestly care and I actually, not figuratively, cry at what is happening and continue to actively work against republican45's agenda

BUT

elections have consequences and I would cry no tears if this breaks the proverbial backs of Midwest and red state trump voters.
At the end of two years, given the current agenda, will they be better off? I seriously doubt it and I can only hope they remember that when they walk into the voting booth.
