   Until election day.   
   This Republican program is not designed to do anything for the economy, for   
   the deficit, or for the debt.   
   It is solely designed as a strategy to defeat President Obama at any cost.   
      
   .....at any cost to Americans in general.

   If Obamacare dies at the hands of the USSC, insurance companies will be free   
   to spend as little as they can get away with on healthcare. Under Obamacare,   
   in effect NOW they must spend 80% of your premium on your healthcare.   
      
   All insurance companies are also required to accept people with preexisting   
   conditions under Obamacare.   
      
   Another provision REQUIRES insurance companies to keep your children on your   
   group policy until they are 26 years old instead of casting them adrift when   
   they leave school.
