The Downfall of the HealthCare in America

Thanks to the Leaders of the two parties in Washington the Health Care System in America is failing and will continue to do so.

It all started when Obama Won the Presidency.  He went into the White House with a Majority in the Senate and House and decided that He and the Democrats didn't need the Republicans for anything and forced the Democratic Version of Health Care down the throats of the Republicans and the American People.  Everyone saw the flaws in it right out of the gate.  There were major issues in it and everyone knew it.  But by the time the issues bubbled to the top the Democrats had lost their majority.  Now they were in protect mode.  The legacy of the President and Health Care for all had to be protected at all costs.  Even though it is failing, costing people more money, costing the Government more money, and collapsing it still has to be protected at all cost.

Then the Republicans took control of not only the White House, but the Majority in Congress as well.  They now want to repeal it and replace it.  The legislation that is known as Obama Care needs a major overhaul.  Everyone knows it.  The Republicans feel that they must repeal the whole thing and start over.  Looking more like they are taking a shot at the Legacy Legislation of President Obama. 

The people paying the price for the stupidity is the American People.  I honestly feel like there are a block of Republicans in the Congress that want to improve the Health Care system.  They want to improve on what we have now.  They want to make changes that drive down the costs and maintain the good aspects of the current system.  The problem is that they lack the support from Republicans and Democrats alike.  You have the far left wing of the Democratic party keeping the Democrats sidelined during the process in hopes that it costs the Republicans votes during the election.  They don't care about solving the issue only winning votes.  Thankfully the block of the Republicans is forcing on their own, the Republican party to slow down and do it right.  Solve the issues with the Health Care Bill and not just be in a hurry to pass something.  It would be nice if the Democrats would break from their leadership and be involved in the process so that the American People can reap the benefits of a truly well rounded bill that people want.
