A New Direction for America?

Are you all ready? Ready for American healthcare to improve as soon as the Republicans repeal Obamacare? Of course, this entire thing is driven by the desire to disqualify that which was put in place by Obama. Obama, himself, has stated that he would support any replacement, which is better than Obamacare. Fair enough? Trump stated frequently while campaigning that he 'HAD' a health care plan, which would be better and cost less. This means he should stop suggesting the Republican Congress needs to offer something...YOU offer something, Donald. It's in your top left hand desk drawer.

Well, the Republicans are betting on a myth. That myth is the free market system. It does not work in healthcare because healthcare is NOT a commodity. People NEED healthcare and a nation that purports to be Christian should provide that healthcare above and beyond what the free market could possibly offer.

Our new President come January 20, 2017, has demonstrated that he will NOT be held accountable by anybody. How else would you explain his refusal to answer all questions at a press conference and threaten to have reporters removed from press conferences if he deems them as unworthy or a false news agency? What next, a state operated news organization, i.e. North Korea, Cuba or Iran?

I had a lot of assistant coaches during a thirty-seven Year basketball coaching career. If you know any, you can ask them if I gave them ownership to 'voice' opinions and suggestions and never suggested they were to be 'yes' men. It is unhealthy when a leader believes he is the only one with right answers all the time.

Trump is a legend in his own mind and one of the few men who can strut while sitting down.
