the problem in washington is we have big hearts but small brains. sort of a dinosaur kind of syndrome up here in more ways than one. but the thing is, people say we must help people so well to let people buy insurance who are already sick. because if we don't we're foot good people and then compassion is equated with money. people start throwing all kinds of money at every problem which isn't republican and isn't truly compassionate if you destroy the country in the process. the thing is let's throw more money at this and it got biger and biggernder but the fundamental flaw of obamacare is this -- if you tell people they can buy insurance after they're sick and then you put a bunch of mandates on insurance to make it more expensive so poor people and working class people can't afford and it say you can buy it when you're sick. they wait to buy it until they're sick. so you get sicker and sicker people and the young, healthy people don't buy it. so what did the republicans offer to replace it with? they said we'll subsidize it. they weren't going to
