The Trump HealthCare Trainwreck. Pre Existing Conditions And Health Insurance

     The next time a politician attacks an existing program, pointing out all its flaws, and then promises to replace it with a far better program, maybe for once people will ask for the specifics regarding the new program offered.
      Trump never had anything better to offer as an alternative to Obamacare other than empty promises.
      Obamacare was flawed. Instead of discarding the whole thing, it should have been improved upon.
       It turns out that the republican alternative to Obamacare will leave millions uninsured. Even though it is said that the alternative program will decrease the national debt, such is not the case. The millions of people that will no longer be insured will end up relying on the government. The United States is not yet a third world country where hospitals will turn people away because they do not have insurance or money. The medical bills of the newly uninsured will be paid for by the government, which would have been paid for by the insurance companies if these people do not lose their health insurance.
       One of the best features of Obamacare is the guarantee that people with preexisting conditions will not be refused health insurance. Weakening or eliminating this one great benefit is a surefire way to ensure future bankruptcies, financial ruin, to say nothing about the loss of proper healthcare for millions.
        Stop the Trump trainwreck before it gets worse. Fix the existing Obamacare program, and stop pretending a better program exists if it is discarded.
