Republicans unveil bill to repeal and replace Obamacare

I want to start off by saying I am liberal and I supported the ACA I just believed it was implemented poorly. The problem with the ACA is that the major insurance companies aren't obligated to seek health insurance and have been slowly walking out on the market as they have been losing tons of profit. Yeah, boo boo, though, right? But they are still companies that have a bottom line. The problem was that while healthcare was required, it wasn't strictly enforced like say auto insurance is. If you want to drive, and own a car, it is strictly enforced. Young people feel like they don't need insurance because they are healthy, and so many people only cashed in on health insurance when they got sick and insurance companies had to pick them up due to a pre existing condition clauses in the ACA that benefited the consumer, and the insurance companies then have to pay thousands in health care coverage. If Hilary became president, Blue cross and some other big companies were going to walk out on offering insurance. I don't necessarily agree with the GOPs fix, and they aren't really repealing anything, it's just a giant amendment to the ACA.
