Will somebody please tell the republican senators?

One of the main reasons we elected them was to fix the Obamacare stupidity: the one size fits all approach where all policies have to cover the same things, the autocratic command from the government that we buy insurance or be punished/fined, the insane method of calculating the premium tax credit that results in the very poorest - people with incomes below the poverty level - get no help at all. Why are they not getting this done? (end of rant)

They aren't getting this done because repubs don't march in lockstep like dumbocrats do. It's more difficult to legislate when you don't have a nancy Pelosi threatening to run someone to her liking against you in the next election and promising to fund them, not you. It's also because the most conservative members do not seem to comprehend that once an entitlement is given it cannot be taken away. Has never been done, and never will be done. Ain't gonna happen, period.
