A new report (www.cbo.gov/latest) from the CBO estimates that more than 20 million people will lose coverage under the Graham-Cassidy bill. That's less than previous Republican efforts, but does it really send our country in the right direction? The long-term costs of treating middle-aged adults that go straight to the ER will be substantial. It's not truly the cost-saving measure it claims to be.

This misrepresents the reality of cost-sharing that happens when someone goes to the ER. This is the reality: www.nytimes.com/health...

I don't really care how we solve healthcare: through the government or through the free-market. I just care that we don't spiral further into crippling debt. Any efforts must reduce the deficit.

The CBO has a horrible track record in regards to accuracy. The estimates on Obamacare were off by millions. MILLIONS. Democrats leverage the CBO when it suits their purpose and ignore it when it doesn't.

I agree that costs will be extreme, but that's beside the point. Any debate about healthcare must, first and foremost, focus on it being an inalienable right. Every compromise on healthcare will be unsuccessful until we acknowledge that.

According to the New York Times, we've got quite a mess on our hands if we continue to kick the fiscal can down the road.

We can't MAGA if we're constantly pandering to outside critics. We're a country that became great on our own, by following our own North Star. I wouldn't worry about the media's impact on all of this. More and more, it's clear that only a small segment of the population takes them seriously.

What would it take to get the media to take real America seriously? They've missed the point for the last 10 years. We want jobs. We want the lives our parents had, and that life is increasingly being taken from us.

I didn't fight for this country to have NFL players with millions of dollars disrespect it like this. This country, which I fought for, has given them everything. If they can't even stand for the anthem, they need to get off the field.

Players kneeling for the national anthem isn't disrespectful. Kneeling has traditionally been a sign of reverence. If anything, you could argue it show more respect than almost anything else!

I'm sick of paying for everyone else's care. If I lose my job tomorrow, no one is going to help me back up. Why does everyone else get a free pass?

What is @donaldtrump thinking today? My guess is he's more focused on the economy now that healthcare is taking a back-seat. I still think he has too much friction with @paulryan and @mitchmcconnell to get anything substantial accomplished.
