“I think if you read this entire report, I’m pretty encouraged by it, and it actually exceeded my expectations,” Paul Ryan told Fox News regarding an analysis report from the Congressional Budget Office that found the new proposed Republican health care Obamacare replacement would result in 24million Americans losing their insurance coverage!

He went onto say:

“We’re saying the government’s not going to force people to buy something they don’t want to buy,”

“And if we end an Obamacare mandate that says you must buy this government, one-size-fits-all plan, guess what, people aren’t going to buy that. So, of course, they’re going to suggest that if we’re not going to make people do something they don’t want to do, they’re not going to do it.

”

Ryan and his supporters believe the federal budget deficit will be reduced by $337 billion and premiums will come down for those seeking insurance.

Of course, it leaves many who can’t afford it in the dark and allows insurance companies to effectively turn people away.

Personally I think this is a huge step in the wrong direction.
