But I have been distressed by many of the arguments my political friends have been using against Paul Ryan’s Obamacare replacement bill. Almost everybody has their own favorite health reform plan. A lot of the criticism of Paul Ryan’s replacement plan seems to be based in either of these two sentiments: It fails to sweep away what currently exists, and it is not an inspired comprehensive plan for total healthcare reform. Yes, it was badly conceived, badly written, badly enacted and badly implemented. People on Medicaid get completely free health coverage, until they earn a dollar more than the eligibility limit and have to buy their own coverage.
